ABOUT YOUR DISTRIBUTION AMPLIFIER 2
The DA1907SX (Ditto-Amp) is a high-resolution 1-
in 2-out distribution amplifier designed to allow the
connection of a single VGA/SVGA/XGA/UXGA
source to up to two scan-rate compatible displays.
Offering a minimum video bandwidth of 400 MHz,
the DA1907SX allows very high-resolution video
signals to pass without degradation to the image
quality. The Local Monitor Output of the DA1907SX
is pre-compensated for up to 12 feet of high-
resolution coaxial-type VGA cable. The Main Output
of the DA1907SX is pre-compensated for up to 250
feet with high-resolution coaxial-type VGA cable.
Being compact and easy to use, the DA1907SX is
perfect for audio/visual installations, where a single
computer needs to be connected to a projector (or
presentation monitor) and a local monitor
simultaneously. The DA1907SX has female 15-pin
HD (VGA type) connectors on all input and output
connectors so it can be used with readily available
standard VGA type cables. If desired, the input
and/or output of the DA1907SX can be easily
adapted to 5 BNC connectors through Altinex
MS8100 Series adapter cables. The DA1907SX is
compatible with RGsB, RGBS, or RGBHV signal
types. With the proper cable the DA1907SX can be
used with MAC, SUN or SGI platform computer.
