Expansion

You may find that as your Video and Audio system grows, you may need to distribute your Source to more than three displays. The full line of Key Digital® Analog Distribution Amplifiers is truly expandable and cascadeable. Not only is your system future-proof, but also you will be able to enjoy beautiful, crystal-clear images, because the signal will not be degraded in any way when you properly cascade Key Digital® products.

KD-CDA3 Operating Instructions

If you need to expand the distribution capability of your KD-CDA3 HDTV Distribution Amplifier, simply use one of the Outputs of the unit that may now be going to one of your displays, and connect that output to the input of another Key Digital® Analog Distribution Amplifier. The total distribution capability is the sum of the total Outputs of all units, minus one. For example, using the KD-CDA3 3-output Distribution Amplifier, cascaded with the Key Digital® KD-CDA6 6-output Distribution Amplifier, you will need to use one of the three Outputs of the KD-CDA3 to drive the Input of the Input of the KD-CDA6. Hence, you will be able to drive your Source to up to 8 displays (3 - 1 + 6 = 8).

Remember, you MUST only use the Power Supplies intended for each product, as provided with each Unit. Do not attempt to share or swap Power Supplies.

Expansion with two KD-CDA3 HDTV Distribution Amplifiers allows you to drive up to 3 – 1 + 3 = 5 displays
