Model AC2000A

1. Introduction

General

Thank you for purchasing Black Box Corporation AC2000A. This is a

versatile, high performance DVI, Audio and RS-232 extender with EDID

management.

This unit has the capability to read the EDID (Extended Display

IDentification) information from the device connected to either the DVI

output connector or the receiver connected to the UTP output. This

information can be stored in the AC2000A-S memory in the “Emulate

Learned” setting, which allows the unit to act like an actual monitor

connected to the INPUT DVI connector.

The AC2000A-S has local DVI and remote UTP video and audio outputs.

Its video outputs can be blanked out or boosted when needed. This unit can

drive video, audio, and RS-232 up to 300 feet depending on the video

resolution being displayed.

This unit can be controlled by either manually using the buttons on the front

panel or remotely through a serial port with RS232 commands or GUI

software.

The unit also has internal memory to store the last operating selection when

power is off. The unit allows four different EDID settings to be routed to

the video input device.

2. Installation

2.1 Required Cables

The video cables are DVI male to male. The audio cables are 3.5mm mini-

stereo. When connecting to a PC’s serial port for remote control of the DVI

extender, an RS-232 to PC cable is required (Customer provided). A

detachable 3-terminal mating connector is provided with the unit. The

function of each pin is silkscreened above the 3-terminal input connector on

the rear of the unit. Below is a diagram for connecting this port to a PC’s

DB9 serial port.

RS-232 to PC cable

2.2 Inputs & Outputs

The AC2000A-S has a DVI video input, a mini-stereo audio input, a RS232

terminal block, Local DVI output, Local audio output, and two UTP ports

for video, audio and RS232 extension. Power plug is a standard IEC

connector, (IEC 60320 C14)

The AC2000A-R has two UTP input ports, a DVI output, audio output, and

RS232 output.

2.3 Connecting the AC2000A-S

Plug in the desired video and audio sources to the INPUT DVI and INPUT

AUD connectors on the back of the AC2000A-S.

Connect local video and audio devices; such as a monitor to the OUTPUT

DVI and AUD connectors if desired. For remote video and audio; two

CAT5 cables are used to connect AC2000A-S (sender) to an AC2000A-R

(receiver) through UTP Extension port LINK A and LINK B connectors.

NOTE

Do not cross the A & B Link cables when connecting to the receiver unit.

Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to the unit

Connect the RS-232 to PC cable if remote serial control is desired.

Connect the included power cord to the AC2000A-S and apply power.

Select the desired EDID routing path using the front panel buttons, through

RS-232 serial commands, or GUI software.

Model AC2000A

The AC2000A-R does not require a separate power supply; the power is

supplied by the sender unit via the UTP cabling. Be sure to connect A and

B link cables correctly! The Green PWR LED will indicate when the

cables are correctly configured. Once the cabling is correctly connected,

attach a monitor to the receiver DVI VIDEO OUTPUT connector. Connect

the remote audio device to the STEREO AUDIO 3.5 mm jack, and a RS232

device to the 3 pin RS-232 connector; if desired.
