1. Introduction

1.1 General

The AC603A extends video + phantom power over UTP (Cat5/5e/6)
cable up to 500 feet. The unit has a local output port on an HD15
connector. The AC603A can support the following video signals
PC’s VGA video (RGBHV) at any resolution
Component video (Y Pb Pr, or RGB), at any resolution - an
adapter cable HD15-to-3RCA will be required
NTSC, PAL, or SECAM Composite video and stereo audio -an
adapter cable HD15-to-3RCA (video and R/L Audio) will be
required
At the receiving (remote) end the Cat5 signal is converted back to
VGA for connection to monitors, projector or other display devices
using a compatible unit (Black Box Model AC602A).
The AC603A includes a power supply that powers itself and the
AC602A Receiver (phantom power) for a clean and easy setup (note
that if the length of Cat5 cable is longer than 300 feet, the receiver may
require its own power supply). Alternatively, the power supply can be
connected to the AC602A remote receiver, in which case, the sender is
powered through the cat5 cable.
