Compact CAT5 Audio/Video Splitters and Receiver
3. Configuration & Operation
3.1 Sender
At the sending end the video signal from the PC is fully terminated and
buffered for the local video output connector. This means that
terminating or plugging a local monitor is not necessary and this
connector can be left open.
The stereo audio input is passed through to the local audio output
connector and the audio integrity is fully preserved. The transmitted
audio in the CAT5 cable to the remote receiver is monaural. The audio
outputs are “line-level” and powered speakers are required.
3.2 Receiver
The only thing that requires configuration on the regular URA is the
COMPENSATION switch setting. URA-SC also requires setting of
“skew” adjustment pots discussed in section 3.2.1.
Please refer to Figure 2.3 for the location of the dip switch. The Switch
has two levers. When the lever is down the switch is ON.
Referring to Table 3.1 and set the dip switches according to the cable
length used.
S1/S2 Switch (Up = OFF)
Cable Length
OFF/OFF position
0 to 125 feet
ON/OFF position
125 to 225 feet
OFF/ON position
225 to 375 feet
ON/ON position
375 to 500+ feet
Table 3.1
Assuming that there are no major grounding or large EMI noise
problems present, the video quality at the remote station depends on the
length of the CAT5 cable, actual video resolution and refresh rate.
The Model URA receiver employs proprietary user settable video
compensation to enhance the image quality when long cables are used.
