ADA 6 Component

The Extron ADA 6 Component is a component/HDTV (high- definition television) distribution amplifier. It is designed for use when one component/HDTV video signal must be sent to up to six output devices (11 with looping) without loss of signal quality.

Features

•Accepts and outputs component video.

•High bandwidth provides signal distribution with no loss of picture quality.

•Looping allows two amplifiers to be connected to provide up to 11 outputs.

Installation

To install the ADA 6 Component, do the following:

1. Remove power cords from the amplifier and all input and output devices.

2. If you are rack mounting the amplifier, attach it to a rack front panel (Extron part number 60-126-01) or rack shelf (Extron part number 60-030-01), and then mount the assembly in the rack.

3. Connect the input BNC connectors to the signal source, such as a high-definition television (HDTV). There are three connectors: R-Y, B-Y, and Y.

4. If you are looping amplifiers, choose the unit that will be #1,

and connect one set of its outputs to the input on amplifier #2.

5. Connect each output to the R-Y, B-Y, and Y connectors on its destination, such as a monitor or large screen projector.

6. Attach a BNC 75-ohm termination plug to each unused output connector.

7. Reattach power cords, and apply power to the amplifier and to all input and output devices.
