Wiring and Connections
Source Inputs
The Source inputs (FIG. 2) can accept video from devices such as PCs, DVD players,
satellite receivers, and video conference systems via Cat5 wallplates. You can use the
Source Input ports to connect RJ-45 cables to the port on a wall input plate which then
connects to an input device via composite, component, or RGB/VGA connector. The
LED beside each port lights red when its associated port is active
.
When connecting to a wall input plate, use Cat5/5e/6 cable to connect from the source
input on the switcher to the RJ-45 connector on the wall input plate (FIG. 3)
.
Warning:
DO NOT use Cat5 crossover cable for source input connections. Using Cat5
crossover cable may damage the presentation switcher.
Once connected, you can activate the connected source input by pressing the button on
the front of the wall input plate. See
Switching Mode
for more information.
NOTE:
Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is not passed by the AVX-400-SP.
HD-15 Output Connectors
Each AVX-400-SP has two HD-15 output connectors. The outputs enable you to use an
HD-15 to Component or standard VGA cable to send video to a display device such as
a projector or large screen monitor.
RS-232 Display Control
The RS-232 display control connector is used for controlling the switcher from an
RS-232 device such as a projector or large screen LCD. FIG. 4 shows the connector
pinouts for the rear RS-232 display control connector.
