Introduction, cont’d Introduction The Extron CAT 5 receivers receive long-distance transmissions of RGB video, component video, S-video, composite video, and stereo audio over shielded twisted pair (STP) or unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The minimum reliable transmission distance is 50 feet. The maximum distance is determined by the output frequency and resolution.
Introduction, cont’d Mounting — Mounts to a projector bracket with Extron’s Projector Mounting Kit (part #70-077-04). CAT 5 Receivers Mounts under or through furniture with Extron’s Under Desk Mounting Kit (part #70-077-01) or Through Desk Mounting Kit (part #70-077-02).
Installation and Operation, cont’d Installation overview 1 Disconnect power from all of the equipment, including the video source(s) (such as computers or DVD players), the transmitter, the receiver, and the output display(s). 2 For component, S-video, or composite video, ensure that the internal jumpers are in the correct position (all except CAT 5 R AV). See Jumpers in this chapter.
Installation and Operation, cont’d a. For RGB video, ensure that pin 2 is jumpered to pin 3. b. For any other video format, ensure that pin 1 is jumpered to pin 2. Termination of CAT 5 cable Figure 2-3 details the recommended termination of CAT 5 cables in accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568A wiring standards. Side Reinstall the video board, replace the cover, and reinstall the screws and BNC connector hex nuts. 6.
Installation and Operation, cont’d CAT 5 T 15HD A Equalizing pair skew AU CO MP UT INP UTP cable test equipment measures and reports wire pair length. The report on the various pair lengths can be used in equalizing pair skew. The nominal velocity of propagation (NVP — the speed at which the signal travels on the transmission line, measured as a percentage of the speed of light) is very close to that of conventional coaxial cable.
Installation and Operation, cont’d R G -or- -or- B H/HV If only an audio signal, no video, is received, connect a ground wire between the chassis ground and an earth ground in the equipment rack or other grounded device. If the receiver is not grounded, a crackling sound may be heard in the audio output. V The H/HV and V BNCs only output sync, not video, signals. 4 DIP switches Power connector SOG switch — Set this rear panel switch up for RGsB video and down for RGBHV or RGBS video.
Installation and Operation, cont’d 3 Auto LED — Indicates that the Manual/Auto switch is in the Auto position. 4 Level control — Adjusts the image brightness. 5 Peaking control — Adjusts the image sharpness. If the image is not displayed correctly 1. For computer/RGB video, if the output image looks too green, ensure that the receiver’s SOG switch is off. 2. For computer video, if the picture hangs off the edge of the screen, adjust the transmitter’s H Shift control.
