The Gefen CAT5•4000 Extender
The Gefen CAT5•4000 Extender is an exceptional solution for extending up to
three individual analog or digital sources to up to four remote locations. The fi rst
input is mirrored to two outputs. RS-232 serial communication (four individual
inputs) and stereo analog audio (available for the mirrored outputs) are also
provided for extension.
How It Works
The CAT5•4000 Extender employs DVI-I inputs which will support both an
analog and digital signals. This will allow the user to connect VGA and DVI
sources. Connect the source devices to the CAT5•4000 sender unit using DVI-A
cables (analog) and DVI-D cables (digital). Connect up to four RS-232 sources
and a single audio analog stereo to the CAT5•4000 sender unit. Then, using
inexpensive and widely available CAT-5, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cables, connect up
to four CAT5•4000 receiver units to the CAT5•4000 sender unit at the remote
locations. Connect a display to the CAT5•4000 receiver at each location. If using
the RS-232 or analog stereo extension, connect the corresponding equipment
to each CAT5•4000 receiver. Once all devices are connected and are receiving
power a perfectly reproduced video signal should appear on the displays at the
remote locations.
