CAT5 for long-distance connection
or multiple-monitor connection
The CAT5 video connection function is for transmitting the
analog RGB video signal of the computer and the control signal
of the monitor over a long distance using CAT5 cables.
The computer can control the monitor via the optional CAT5 Tx
BOX (option) and the CAT5 Rx BOX (option) that is mounted on
MDT551S.
CAUTION:
Never connect network devices (such as a hub and a computer
for LAN) to the CAT5 IN and OUT connectors of the CAT5 Tx
BOX and the CAT5 Rx BOX. If they are connected, the network
devices themselves, CAT5 Tx BOX, CAT5 Rx BOX, and monitor
may be damaged.
1. Installation of the USB driver for CAT5
serial communication control
To connect the computer and the CAT5 Tx BOX (option) via
USB interface, it is necessary to install the USB driver to the
computer from the CD-ROM supplied with the CAT5 Tx BOX.
(Installing the USB driver isn’t necessary when the
communication control isn’t used or the RS-232C cable is used
for connection.)

a commercially available USB cable.
2. When the USB connector isn’t used for the communication
control, connect with an RS-232C cable and set the input
selection switch on the CAT5 Tx BOX to the RS-232C side.
NOTE:
To supply a power to the CAT5 Tx BOX, connect a USB
cable also.
3. Connect the analog RGB OUT connector on the computer
and the RGB IN connector on the CAT5 Tx BOX using the
signal cable (mini D-SUB 15-pin – mini D-SUB 15-pin)
