Installation
This product is composed of two separate units: the Transmitter Unit and the Receiver
Unit. The Transmitter Unit takes the output from a VGA and/or RS-232 Serial data
source and transmits it to the Receiver unit over Category 5 Ethernet cable. The signal
source (VGA and/or Serial) is connected to a Transmitter unit, which transmits the
signal to the Receiver unit, up to 300m away. The remote display connects to the
Receiver unit using a standard VGA connection and displays the image from the local
computer on the remote display.
NOTE: The total length of cable between the Transmitter and Receiver units cannot
exceed 1000 feet (300 meters), including patch cables (if used).
NOTE: Long cable lengths between the Transmitter and Receiver units may adversely
aect image quality at high resolutions and refresh rates. If you need to run your
remote displays at high resolutions and frequencies, use as little Ethernet cabling
between locations as possible and avoid practices such as “coiling” unused cable in a
ceiling or behind the display.

Preparing Your Site
Prior to installation, please ensure that the site is prepared to accommodate the
location of the Transmitter and Receiver units.
1. Determine where the local computer will be located and set up the computer.
2. Determine where the remote display(s) will be located and place/mount them
appropriately.
3. If you are using surface cabling, ensure you have enough Category 5
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet cabling to connect the Transmitter
Unit to the Receiver unit’s location, and that each end is terminated with a
RJ-45 connector.
OR
If you are using premises cabling, ensure that the Category 5 unshielded
twisted pair (UTP) Ethernet Cabling between the Transmitter Unit and the
Receiver unit has been properly terminated in a wall outlet in each location
and there is a patch cable long enough to connect the Receiver unit and the
Transmitter Unit to their respective outlets.
4. Ensure that both the remote and Transmitter units are close enough to an
available power outlet, to safely connect.

Please note that the following instructions assume that both Serial and VGA
connections will be used. If you are using the extender with only serial or only VGA,
please disregard any steps pertaining to the unused connection.
Installing the Transmitter Unit
1. Place the Transmitter Unit near the computer/video source.
2. Switch o the computer and disconnect any existing VGA connections.
3. Connect one end of a standard male/male VGA cable to the port marked VGA IN,
located on the rear panel of the local unit.
4. Connect the remaining end of the VGA cable used in step 3, to the VGA out port on
the computer video card (or other signal source).
5. Connect one end of an RS-232 Serial cable to the port marked RS232 IN on the
Transmitter Unit.
6. Connect the remaining end of the RS-232 cable used in step #5, to the Serial
output port on the host computer.
7. Insert the round, metal connector from the included power adapter to the port
marked POWER on the rear panel of the Transmitter unit.
8. Connect the remaining end of the power adapter to an available power
receptacle.
9. Optional: If you wish to locate a display near the video source, please insert the
VGA cable provided by the monitor/display to the VGA OUT port located on the
front panel of the Transmitter unit.
Installing the Receiver Unit
1. Place the Receiver Unit near the display and/or serial peripheral you wish to use.
2. Connect the VGA display to the port marked VGA OUT, located on the rear panel of
the Receiver unit.
3. Connect the RS232 OUT port located on the rear panel of the Receiver Unit to the
desired Serial peripheral.
4. Connect the rounded metal connector from the included power adapter to the
port marked POWER on the rear panel of the Receiver unit.
5. Connect the remaining end of the power adapter to an available power
receptacle.
Linking the Transmitter and Receiver Units
Once the Transmitter and Receiver Units have been situated and installed, connect the
two devices together using standard Cat5 Ethernet cable terminated at both ends with
an RJ45 connector. For longer transmissions, it is advisable to use as little Cat5 cable
as possible (i.e. avoid using excess cable), to ensure optimum picture quality at the
remote display
