Question What is the maximum length of cable that can be used with the DA1913GL?

Can I use the

DA1913GL

power supply to power 2 units simultaneously?

Are outputs 1 & 2 buffered?

What is common mode range of the DA1913GL and why is it so important?

How will the

DA1913GL provide protection from a ground loop in the system?

Answer

Compensation for cable loss is automatically made for a distance of 100 feet, though the DA1913GL can drive signals through longer runs depending on the source signal resolution and cable quality.

It is not recommended since one power supply is supplied with each unit. Please consider the PS5581SM, a rack mount power supply.

The DA1913GL has two individually buffered outputs.

The common mode range of the DA1913GL Distribution Amplifier is +/-2V with a video signal of 1V p-p. In most cases, a ground loop voltage will not exceed 200-300mV, so this range is more than enough to handle even the most severe ground loop problems.

A ground loop is a type of electromagnetic interference often caused by small, but significant differences in ground voltage between two or more different power sources when equipment using the different power sources is connected by means of video/audio inputs and outputs. A ground loop may also be caused when high
