MT103-116
2-In 2-Out CAT-5 to VGA Receiver Card
The MT103-116 is a high-resolution 2-in 2-out
CAT-5 to VGA receiver. The MT103-116 card
receives computer video signals over twisted pair
CAT-5 (Category 5, 5e, 6) type cable that are
transmitted by a compatible transmitter card such
as the ALTINEX MT103-115 or stand alone
DA1920SX transmitter. The MT103-116 converts
differential signals to single ended video signals
and distributes the source to large screen
projectors or other displays.
The MT103-116 offers two RJ-45 female input
connectors and two fully buffered 15-pin HD female
output connectors. The MT103-116 can receive
signal resolutions from VGA thru UXGA depending
upon the cable length and quality. Used together
with an ALTINEX CAT-5 transmitter, the maximum
cable distance is approximately 500 feet/152
meters for VGA (640 x 480, 60 Hz refresh rate) and
250 feet/76.2 meters for UXGA (1600 x 1200, 60
Hz refresh rate). Built-in equalization controls allow
the image to be fine tuned based on the cable
length. Please see the complete specifications for
other resolutions and their maximum cable lengths.
