Professional Video Distribution Switch: CNX-PVID8x4
Operations Guide - DOC. 8166A
The CNX-PVID8x4 accepts digital audio, component, S-video, and NTSC/PAL
composite sources, including HDTV signals, and distributes them to display devices
throughout the home via standard CAT5 structured wiring. This distribution method
ensures a balanced signal for long runs, allowing the user to equalize, adjust, and
boost the gain of the video signal for the perfect picture for every application, in
every room.
The CNX-PVID8x4 is designed with three levels of video inputs and outputs, each
highly configurable for a variety of video formats. Each of the three levels of
switcher boards implements a video matrix with 16 RCA inputs and eight RCA
outputs for direct single ended video connection to local display devices. A fourth
level may be used for 16 channels of distributed digital audio. In addition, the
CNX-PVID8x4 contains eight RJ-45 outputs for distributing any of these
audio/video signals via CAT5 mode for differential audio/video to up to eight rooms
throughout the house. No matter what the configuration, all inputs have a built-in
video sync sensor that reports power/activity status of all source devices attached to
the CNX-PVID8x4.
CNX-PVID8x4 used with Crestron Room Solution Box
NOTE:
Systems that incorporate the CNX-PVID8x4 and Crestron Room Solution
Boxes satisfy a vast number of possible applications that could be used by Crestron
customers.
The CNXPVID8x4 is ideally used in tandem with a CNXRMC or CNXRMCLV in
each room, which receives and decodes the CAT5 video from the CNX-PVID8x4
and supplies it to the display device in the room. Refer to an illustration of a general
application scenario after this paragraph. This video distribution solution, combined
with Crestron's audio distribution switches (CNX-PAD8A or CNX-BIPAD8), a
Crestron CNAMPX intelligent amplifier, and a 2-Series control system, creates a
complete networked audio/video/control solution for the connected home.
