5 Using Your VP-12N 1:12 + 3 UXGA / CAT5 Distributor
This section describes how to connect the
VP-12N
1:12 + 3 UXGA / CAT5
Distributor
.
The example in Figure 3 illustrates how to output a computer graphics signal
from a computer to up to 12 local monitors, as well as how to transmit it over
UTP cabling to 3
TP-120
XGA Line Receiver
units.
To connect the
VP-12N
and up to 3
TP-120
XGA Line Receiver
units, do the
following:
1. Connect a computer graphics source (for example, a computer) to the
INPUT HD15F connector.
2. Connect the OUTPUT HD15F connectors to up to 12 acceptors (for
example, Local Display 1 to Local Display 12).
3. Ensure that the ID BIT switch on the underside of the
VP-12N
is set to
ON (by sliding it to the left). This would enable a notebook or laptop (if
connected instead of a computer) to output a VGA signal to an external
VGA monitor.
1 Using a UTP cable with CAT5 connectors at both ends (the PINOUT is defined in Table 3 and Figure 4)
