Connecting additional computers using the
GefenTV 1:8 Multi Format Video Distribution over Ethernet
In addition to distribution video and audio over LAN, computers can also be
connected within the network.
1. Follow the steps on page 9 for Confi guring the GefenTV 1:8 Multi Format
Distribution Over Ethernet for Video / Audio over LAN .
2. Using an Ethernet cable, connect each computer to either the Sender or
Receiver unit. The Sender functions as a switch and it is possible to connect
multiple computers or Receiver units.
3. The computers connected to the Sender or Receiver should now be able to
access the LAN without any additional confi guration. It should be noted that
connecting computers to the Sender will minimize the number or Receivers
that can be used with the Sender.
NOTE: The GefenTV 1:8 Multi Format Video Distribution over Ethernet can op-
erate independently of an Ethernet switch. However, when confi guring for video
/ audio and computers over LAN, it is suggested that an IGMP switch be used to
manage the video / audio data and computer data. This will ensure the correct
data is sent to the proper port and maintain optimal bandwidth.
