The CatX extender range has been enhanced to increase the operating distance of the standard receivers to 150m. As part of ongoing development, this represents the commitment of SY Electronics to meet the growing needs of the digital signage market.
The CatX range includes medium distance (150m) and long distance (300m) receivers.
Using CatX extenders as part of a digital Signage network means that the player or PC that outputs the content can be placed in a separate location, amking access and maintenance.
This reduces support and installation time by placing all the player components in a single location. Players can be easily routed to different display devices as and replaced without significant down time.
The output display can be placed up to 300m from the player/PC. The same content can also be replicated many times, reducing the number of players and also the cost.
In one of their main development facilities Symantec, a global supplier of Internet security and anti-virus software, have used Skew62 to correct the skew effect from a variety of thrid party Console extenders.
When Symantec upgraded the UTP cable in their newest facility, the users experienced a significant skew problem on their individual workstations. Installing new extenders which could correct this problem would have meant a significant cost.
By Installing the new CatX Skew62, the skew effect could be removed at a fraction of the cost replacement with a new extender system.
SY Electronics has developed the worlds’ first Universal Skew correction system for use with Cat5 or Cat6 extender systems. Incorporating SY Electronics unique XSQ™ technology, the Skew62 unit connects directly to the VGA input or output of any brand of VGA extender.
Using only two controls, this device will totally remove the skew effect that often occurs when using Cat5 or Cat6 cable to extend VGA video up to 300m.
