Connecting example using DIGITAL LINK
Twisted-pair-cable transmitters based on the communication standard HDBaseT
TM
such as the optional DIGITAL
LINK output supported device (Model No.: ET-YFB100G, ET-YFB200G) use twisted pair cables to transmit input
images, Ethernet, and serial control signals, and the projector can input those digital signals to the <DIGITAL
LINK/LAN> terminal.

*1 Control target is the projector or the twisted-pair-cable transmitter. The control itself may not be possible depending on the twisted-pair-cable
transmitter. Check the operating instructions of the device to be connected.
Attention
f
Always use one of the following when connecting a VCR.
g
Use a VCR with built-in time base corrector (TBC).
g
Use a time base corrector (TBC) between the projector and the VCR.
f
The image may be disrupted when nonstandard burst signal is connected. In such a case, connect the time base corrector (TBC) between
the projector and the external devices.
f
Ask a qualified technician or your dealer to install the cable wiring between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector. Image may
be disrupted if cable transmission characteristics cannot be obtained due to inadequate installation.
f
For the LAN cable between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, use a cable that meets the following criteria:
g
Conforming to CAT5e or higher standards
g
Shielded type (including connectors)
g
Straight-through
g
Single wire
f
When laying cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector, confirm that cable characteristics are compatible with
CAT5e or higher using tools such as a cable tester or cable analyzer.
When a relay connector is used, include it in the measurement.
f
Do not use a hub between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector.
f
When connecting to the projector using a twisted-pair-cable transmitter (receiver) of other manufacturers, do not place another twisted-pair-
cable transmitter between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter of other manufacturers and the projector. This may cause image to be disrupted.
f
Do not pull cables forcefully. Also, do not bend or fold cables unnecessarily.
f
To reduce the effects of noise as much as possible, stretch out the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector
without any loops.
f
Lay the cables between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector away from other cables, particularly power cables.
f
When laying multiple cables, run them side by side along the shortest distance possible without bundling them together.
f
After laying the cables, go to the [NETWORK] menu
→
[DIGITAL LINK STATUS] and confirm that the value of [SIGNAL QUALITY] is
displayed in green which indicates normal quality. (

Note
f
For the HDMI cable, use an HDMI High Speed cable that conforms to the HDMI standards. If a cable that does not conform to the HDMI
standards is used, images may be interrupted or may not be projected.
f
The projector does not support VIERA Link (HDMI).
f
The maximum transmission distance between the twisted-pair-cable transmitter and the projector is 100 m (328'1"). It is possible to transmit
up to 150 m (492'2") if the twisted-pair-cable transmitter supports the long-reach communication method. If this distance is exceeded, image
may be disrupted or a malfunction may occur in LAN communication. Please note that Panasonic does not support the use of the projector
outside the maximum transmission distance. When connecting with the long reach, video signal or distance that can be transmitted may be
restricted, depending on the specification of the twisted-pair-cable transmitter.
