MT103-123

TWISTED PAIR RECEIVER TO VIDEO + AUDIO CARD

The MT103-123provides a means of receiving computer video and audio signals over Twisted Pair-type (CAT-5/6) cable when used together with an ALTINEX Twisted Pair Video Transmitter such as the MT103-122or DA1930CT.

The MT103-123is easy to use and requires only one slot in the MultiTasker system. The MT103-123is able to receive one of the video sources, such as RGBHV, YPbPr, S-Video, or composite video (C-Video) and stereo audio transmitted over the Twisted Pair cable from the MT103-122, DA1930CT, or equivalent transmitter.

The MT103-123provides both audio and video outputs. The MT103-123offers a 15-pin HD female output for RGBHV/YPbPr signals, a 4-pin Mini DIN for S-Video, and an RCA jack for C-Video output. A 5-pin terminal block is used for balanced stereo audio output and a 3.5 mm stereo jack is used for unbalanced stereo.

The unit also offers hardware video equalization for long transmission lengths. The video equalization works in conjunction with the video equalization on the transmitter. There is also a signal detection feature that shows when an input signal is present.

The latest generation of Twisted Pair devices uses an innovative, patented technology* developed by ALTINEX. The new signal processing technology allows transmitting and receiving fully equalized computer video signals, stereo, and audio signals over long distances.
