Description
The CatX Video Rx2 receiver outputs two high quality VGA video to two VGA display devices, with stereo audio, at distances up to 150m when connected to any transmitter in the CatX Classic Range. The tune control on the CatX Video Rx provides an easy adjustment to produce a sharp high quality video and performs best using low cost cat5 cabling – see Resolution / Distance.
Installation of all CatX units is quick and easy, requiring only a single 12VDC PSU adapter in order to operate. The PSU can attach to either the transmitter unit or the receiver unit, providing flexibility in the installation.
A single distance compensation control on the CatX Video Rx2 unit makes adjusting the image quality for different cable lengths simple whilst viewing the remote display. No switch settings or complicated set up procedure is required.
CatX Video Rx2 is compact and lightweight, saving both space and money whilst raising system security to a much higher level, since the video source is no longer in the same location as the display. This small size also allows for easy installation in environments with limited space.
The CatX Video Rx2 takes its power either from the transmitter or from a local PSU and consumes less than 0.25 Watts.
