3. CONNECTION INSTRUCTIONS
3.1 Installation Checklist
Please review these steps before installing the VGA Extender.
Cat 5 or 5e cabling will reduce the maximum distance of the Extender.
Test the VGA, audio, and Cat 6 cabling (sold separately) before installing
in a permanent location.
Power-off the connected VGA source and destination equipment before
connecting the VGA Extender units or any cabling.
The VGA Extender Sender and Receiver units must be located within 3
feet of an electrical outlet to use the included power adapters.
The recommended maximum length for the VGA and audio cables at
each end is 10 feet for the best performance.
The Cat 6 cabling should be directly connected and not used with any
other equipment such as a network switch or router.
The Extender units are wired with a TIA/EIA 568B at the RJ45 ports.
For the best performance at the maximum distance, use 24 AWG Cat 6
solid cable and high quality VGA cables with ferrites.
Cat 6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable is appropriate for short to
medium distances in a low RFI/EMI environment.
Cat 6 shielded (STP) cable is appropriate for medium to long distances
with potential RF/EM interference. RJ45 connectors with metal
connectors are recommended when using shielded cable along with
proper grounding.
A mini screwdriver is required to adjust the Gain and Peak settings.
The Sender is surface mountable with the included brackets and screws.
