Buffered Output connector — Connect one end of a TP cable to

this female RJ-45 connector. Connect the free end of the same TP

cable from the receiver to the female Input RJ-45 connector on

another receiver.

See “TP cable termination” on page 20 to wire the

RJ-45 connectors.

The receiver’s buffered output does not provide

pre-peaking control. The total recommended distance for

an entire daisy chain is the same as for a single

transmitter and receiver. The Pre-Peak switch has the

same affect on the recommended transmission distance

for a daisy chain as for a single transmitter and receiver.

Up to 8 receivers can be connected in series using

Buffered Output connectors, provided that the total

distance from the transmitter’s TP output to the last

receiver in the chain does not exceed the recommended

distance for the resolution being used.

See the recommended transmission ranges in the table on

page 5. The recommendations in the table apply equally

for a single transmitter and receiver and for a

transmission daisy chain. For example, the maximum

suggested range for 1024 x 768 video is 300’ with

Pre-Peak off and 500’ with Pre-Peak on for either one

transmitter and one receiver or a transmitter and three

daisy-chained receivers.

For daisy-chained units, the ﬁrst receiver in the chain

must be at least 100’ from the transmitter when the

Pre-Peak switch is on.

For daisy-chained units, any receiver in the chain closer

than 350’ may experience some form of over-peaking

when the Pre-Peak switch is on.

If a receiver is the last receiver in a daisy chain, its End

Unit DIP switch setting needs to be changed. See DIP

switches, item

, on the next page.
