Tips for achieving good quality links

Due to the large volumes of data that must be transferred between 

the transmitter and receiver, every AdderLink XD522 installation 

is highly dependent upon good quality CATx cable links. Video 

performance is particularly reliant on high speed communication 

channels. For this reason, the AdderLink XD522 units periodically 

test the link quality to determine which of two video transfer modes 

can be supported: Low Rate or High Rate. Please see page 3 for 

details about high and low rate video modes.

The main factors that affect link quality are:

• 

The length and type of CATx cable used,

• 

The number, length and type of intermediate patch connections,

• 

The quality of the cable terminations.

The table below provides a brief overview of distances that may be 

achieved using different CATx cable types. Please see the full user 

guide for more details.
