ABOUT YOUR DISTRIBUTION AMPLIFIER 2

The DA1912SX Distribution Amplifier is designed to allow the connection of one high resolution RGsB or RGBS source to up two scan rate compatible monitors or projectors.

Although designed to pass an RGBS signal format, the DA1912SX can also pass RGsB, Component Video (Y, R-Y, B-Y), S-Video (Y/C), and Composite Video by using the appropriate channels. Video sources must be passed through Red, Green, and/or Blue channels. The sync channel is not designed to pass video.

The DA1912SX Distribution Amplifier is a state-of- the-art product with a video bandwidth of 350 MHz, enabling it to remain transparent to the video signal passing through it. Each output is individually buffered and is not affected by other output loading.

The DA1912SX accepts one input and offers up to two outputs. Compensation for cable loss is automatically made for distances up to 100 feet when set normally, though the DA1912SX can drive signals through longer runs depending on source signal resolution and cable quality.

The DA1912SX is supplied with a 9V 500mA External Power Adapter.
