Compact CAT5 Audio/Video Splitters and Receiver

5. Faint shadows or ghosts at the remote monitor
Your splitter has multiple RJ45 output connectors. When a long CAT5
cable is plugged in any of the outputs, the unit expects a receiver unit at
the far end for proper termination. Therefore it is a good idea to unplug
the un-terminated CAT5 cables from the splitter unit. Please refer to
item 1 above for other possible causes.
6. Poor audio quality at the receiving end
Only use powered speakers with the splitter and receivers. It is also
good practice to set the audio level (volume) output of the PC about 1/2
to 2/3 from the maximum and use the volume knob of the speakers to
adjust the volume to the desired level. A low volume signal output
from the PC reduces the signal-to-noise (S/N) ratio, whereas too high
output amplitude can cause saturation and clipping to occur.
7. Substituting power supplies
The splitters and the receivers rely on the AC power adapters that are
supplied with them. Do not substitute any other power supplies or DC
power sources. If you need to run the devices from a different power
source, contact the factory with the model number and serial number of
the device. Calling Hall Research Technologies
