APPLICATIONS
Extron’s RGB 508 AKM and RGB 558 AKM with audio and ADSP™ are two universal, computer-video interfaces designed for use with the Ackermann floor tank system. The RGB 508 AKM or RGB 558 AKM fits flush within the included Ackermann GES9B mounting box for convenient and easy installation with RGB output connections on 6" cable extensions. The RGB 508 AKM and RGB 558 AKM feature a 15-130 kHz horizontal scanning range with 300 MHz (-3dB) video band- width, a choice of 9-pin D or 15-pin HD input connectors, Extron’s exclusive Advanced Digital Sync Processing (ADSP™), active audio interfacing, and openings for optional Architectural Adapter Plates (AAPs). These interfaces are compatible with VGA, SVGA, XGA, XGA-2, Mac, Sun, SGI, and other signals.
The RGB 508 AKM’s universal 9-pin D connector is compatible with any computer using one of Extron’s high-quality laptop breakout cables, monitor breakout cables, MBC buffers, and internal computer wiring kits. The RGB 558 AKM offers a
15-pin HD input connector for easy connection to VGA-style computers, with Mac/Quadra and Sun/SGI adapter cable kits available, and a buffered local monitor output. ADSP™ provides all-digital sync processing so that stable images are produced
on digital display devices (DLP, LCD, and plasma). Audio interfacing converts computer-generated, unbalanced audio to line-level balanced audio. The RGB 508 and RGB 558 provide openings for two single-space AAPs as additional signal pass-through connections.
FEATURES
■Bandwidth– 300 MHz (-3dB) video bandwidth.
■Input connector– The RGB 508 AKM provides a 9-pin D input connector; the RGB 558 AKM provides a 15-pin HD input connector.
■Buffered local monitor output– The RGB 558 AKM offers a 15-pin HD buffered local monitor output.
■Advanced Digital Sync Processing (ADSP™)– ADSP provides all-digital sync processing so that extraordinarily stable images are produced on digital display devices.
■Active audio interfacing– Converts unbalanced audio to line-level balanced audio. Balanced audio maintains signal quality over long cable runs, whereas unbalanced audio does not.
■Architectural Adapter Plate (AAP) openings– The RGB 508 and RGB 558 provide openings for two single-space AAPs as signal pass-through connections.
FEATURES (Cont.)
■Horizontal centering– Shifts displayed image horizontally.
■Level and peaking– Level and peaking compensate for signal losses over long cable runs. Level control adjusts the brightness level of the displayed image, and peaking control adjusts the sharpness level of the displayed image.
■ID bit termination– Available on RGB 558 AKM, switch- selectable.
■75 ohm video termination– Available on RGB 508 AKM, switch-selectable.
■Selectable sync output– Choice of composite or separate H&V sync, switch-selectable. Sync on green also available.
■Selectable sync polarity– Choice of positive or negative polarities for separate horizontal and vertical sync.
■Power– 12-24VAC/VDC accepted through captive screw connector.
■Dual Color LED– Displays power applied (amber) and signal present (green).
