Note: If the source is Component Video (YPbPr) an HD15 to 3 RCA cable will be required for each HD15 connector.

If the source is composite video with stereo audio, a similar cable will be needed. The RCA connectors are typically yellow (instead of green) for video and red/white for audio. To transmit CV and stereo audio, please read section 2.3 below.

If the length of Cat5 cable is long, you need to adjust the receiver (AC602A) to compensate for the signal in order to perfect the image.

Apply a video source to the system and check for an image at each receiver, then set the compensation Potentiometer (pot) for best possible image.

Start with the compensation pot fully CCW (least compensation), then slowly turn it clockwise and check for the bleeding of left to right horizontal lines on the screen.
