How it Works
Simply connect your Component video source to the 1x8 Component CAT5 Distribu-
tion Amplifi er’s input using the supplied VGA to Component cable. Then connect up to
eight Component displays to the Component CAT5 receivers over 330 feet using CAT-5
Cable. Then power the 1x8 Component CAT5 Distribution Amplifi er and the receivers
will get power from the CAT5. Note: Component output 1 is the primary connection and
is used for the main display. Component output 2 through 8 follow the main display. The
Component displays attached to the 1x8 Component CAT5 Distribution Amplifi er MUST
have the same native resolution in order to get a picture.
