to the Red, Green and Blue color-coded BNC connectors (marked as Y, Pb, Pr on silk screen) of
any one of the eight input fields of the KD-MSCAT8X8 Matrix Switcher.
Connect Analog Audio input to any of 6-pin connecting blocks of KD-MSCAT8X8 Matrix
Switcher as following :
Active Left wire - to L- (pin1), Ground Left wire – to Pin 2,
Active Right wire - to R- (pin4), Ground Right wire – to Pin 5
If a digital Audio coaxial output is available on your Input source of choice, it can be then
connect to the Gray-coded PCM connector on the KD-MSCAT8X8 HDTV Matrix Switcher
(marked as PCM on silk screen).
Connect CAT5/6/7 cables to Outputs 1 through 8 on the KD-MSCAT8X8 Matrix Switcher.
Connect the other ends of CAT5/6/7 cables to KD-VACRX or KD-VACWPRX.
Connect corresponding Component Video jacks on your TV or monitor to KD-VACRX or KD-
VACWPRX via 15-pin ‘breakout’ adapter cable (VGA-to-Component).
Connect Analog Audio input of your display or A/V receiver to any of 6-pin connecting blocks of
KD-VACRX or KD-VACWPRX as following :
Active Left wire - to L- (pin1), Ground Left wire – to Pin 2,
Active Right wire - to R- (pin4), Ground Right wire – to Pin 5
If digital Audio is desired, connect your A/V receiver’s coaxial digital Audio input to RCA-style
PCM connector on KD-VACRX or KD-VACWPRX.
* For balanced Audio connection 2 Left (to pins 1 & 3) and 2 Right (to pins 4 & 6) wires has to be connected on both
KD-MSCAT8X8 Matrix Switcher and KD-VACRX or KD-VACWPRX.
rGBHV
If your Input source of choice employs RGBHV outputs, a 15-pin ‘breakout’ adapter cable will be
needed to implement the interface. In this instance:
Connect the Red, Green and Blue BNC connectors from this adapter cable to the Red, Green
and Blue connectors on any one of the eight input fields of the KD-MSCAT8X8 Matrix Switcher.
Connect the Black wire to Orange BNC connector (marked “V” – for Vertical), connect Grey
wire to White BNC connector (marked “H” – for Horizontal) in the same input field of the KD-
MSCAT8X8 Matrix Switcher.
Connect CAT5/6/7 cables to Outputs 1 through 8 on the KD-MSCAT8X8 Matrix Switcher.
Connect the other ends of CAT5/6/7 cables to KD-VACRX or KD-VACWPRX.
Use 15-pin ‘breakout’ adapter cable to connect your display RGBHV input to VGA/YPbPr output
of KD-VACRX or KD-VACWPRX
Connect Analog Audio input of your display or A/V receiver to any of 6-pin connecting blocks of
KD-VACRX or KD-VACWPRX as following :
