What is SmartCast?
The SmartCast is a combination of transmitter and receiver devices
designed to transmit high resolution computer video and/or audio signal
over Cat 5 wire. AV stands for Audio Visual and includes such signal
formats as High-Definition and Standard Definition Video, Broadcast Video
(TV video signal), Computer Video (VGA, SVGA, SXGA and etc. signals) and
various formats of Audio signals.
Why is SmartCast necessary?
Sometimes AV signals need to be transmitted over distances greater than
commonly specified product limitations of 5m. In this case several choices
are available, but most are expensive and bulky, which is in some cases
simply not practical, due to space limitations in the conduits.
The SmartCast allows the transmission of AV signals over a standard Cat 5
UTP cable over distances of up to 300m. The actual distance is a function
of the signal resolution and cable quality. The following is a rough guide to
distance and resolution:
How does SmartCast work?
The Smart-e SmartCast is designed to transmit desktop computer video
and stereo audio signals over (UTP) unshielded twisted pair category 5 (Cat
5) cabling. They are supplied with a UK power supply and consists of a
transmitter with one input and five outputs (Cascade able up to 20
outputs).
The transmitted signals depends on the model but supported signals are
CVBS, YUV, Y/C, RGsB, RGBS analogue format and Stereo Audio. The
basic concept behind this product is the ability to encode and decode
analogue signal combined with precise line equalization and compensation.
Cat5 Cable Length Maximum Recommended Resolution
200m UXGA (1600x1200)
200m 1080p (1920x1080)
300m SXGA (1280x1024)
1. Preparing for installation
Start installation process by ensuring that all video displays and audio
devices are compatible with the computers being used.
This is accomplished by connecting the devices directly to the computer
and checking that the devices operate as desired without the SmartLynx
system.
Install CAT-5 wiring between desired locations. In order to minimize system
operation difficulties, avoid routing the system cables near fluorescent
lights, air conditioners, or machines that may create electrical noise.

2. Connecting Video to the transmitter
2.1 Connect the video output of the source device to the input of
the transmitter using a standard HD15 VGA cable, or the
relevant interface cable if using another video format.
2.2 If using RGBS please ensure that the transmitter is configured
correctly - see page 9.
2.3 For all video types other than RGBS the transmitter is already
configured correctly.

3. Connecting Audio and Infra-red to the transmitter
3.1 Connect the audio output of the source device to the ‘audio in’ mini
jack connectors on the SCX-TX550, using a stereo minijack cable or
interface cable if appropriate.
3.2 If using Infra-Red connect the SM-LED or SM-EYE to the relevant
minijack connectors shown in the diagram below.
4. Connecting RS232/422 to the transmitter
4.1 Using the RS232-RS422 converter (AL-300) and adaptor cable
(CAB-R19-1M) provided, connect to an available serial port on the
control system/computer.
(If not using the supplied cable please contact your nearest Smart-e
distributor or call +44 1306 628264 for pin out information)
4.2 Connect the RJ45 on the adaptor cable to the left RJ45 socket on
the transmitter, this is labelled “RS232 IN” on the diagram below.
4.3 You may connect the unit to additional cascaded units using a
standard (NOT cross-over) patch cable to connect the Right RJ45
socket (RS232 OUT)’ to the left RJ45 socket (RS232 IN) on the
following unit.
4.4 In order to cascade the serial control, each transmitter must have a
unique address allocated - this is set by adjusting the rotary hex
switch. There are 16 positions (0-F) allowing up to 16 units to be
cascaded

5. Connecting the looping output or local monitor.
5.1 For Video connect the HD15 marked on the diagram ‘Video OUT’ to:
If using the cascading feature - the HD15 marked on the diagram as
’Video IN’, on the second unit.
If using a local monitor - the HD15 PC In on the monitor.
For both situations use a standard VGA cable.
5.2 For Audio connect the minijack marked on the diagram as ‘Audio
OUT’ to:
If using the cascading feature - the minijack marked on the diagram
as ’AUDIO IN’, on the second unit.
If using a local monitor/speakers - the minijack audio IN on the
monitor/speakers.
For both situations use a standard stereo minijack cable.
