The Gefen CAT5•4000 Extender

The Gefen CAT5•4000 Extender is an exceptional solution for extending up to three individual analog or digital sources to up to four remote locations. The first input is mirrored to two outputs. RS-232 serial communication (four individual inputs) and stereo analog audio (available for the mirrored outputs) are also provided for extension.

How It Works

The CAT5•4000 Extender employs DVI-I inputs which will support both an analog and digital signals. This will allow the user to connect VGA and DVI sources. Connect the source devices to the CAT5•4000 sender unit using DVI-A cables (analog) and DVI-D cables (digital). Connect up to four RS-232 sources and a single audio analog stereo to the CAT5•4000 sender unit. Then, using inexpensive and widely available CAT-5, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cables, connect up to four CAT5•4000 receiver units to the CAT5•4000 sender unit at the remote locations. Connect a display to the CAT5•4000 receiver at each location. If using the RS-232 or analog stereo extension, connect the corresponding equipment to each CAT5•4000 receiver. Once all devices are connected and are receiving power a perfectly reproduced video signal should appear on the displays at the remote locations.
