Table 1: Signal connections
Note that one set of BNC connectors serves all video inputs except the DVI input. The Kaleido-Alto/Quad will
auto-detect the type of signal applied, and process it appropriately.

Make sure the input cable has a maximum length of 100m (325') (Belden 1694) and that all serial digital video
connections are point-to-point. For instance, there must be a point-to-point connection between the IN BNC and
the source equipment. If a T-connector is used to connect other equipment, the maximum specified cable
length is no longer valid.
