Description
The CatXQ AV Rx2 outputs two high quality videos to any two VGA video displays up to a continuous cable distance of 300 m.
This product also incorporates XSQ™ technology that will eliminate the cable skew effect, especially over longer distances of UTP cable.
CatXQ AV Rx2 can receive audio and video, or video only, up to 300 m. The maximum resolution of this CatX receiver is dependent on the length of UTP cable – see Resolution / Distance.
Each CatXQ AV Rx2 has a UTP output for daisy chaining to another receiver in the CatX AVP Range or the CatX Mini Range. Multiple receivers can connect in this way for distances up to 2000 m. The distance between each CatXQ AV Rx2 receiver is dependent on the receiver, but the total span can be up to 4000 m (2 x 2000 m) when using CatX AVP Tx2/4/8 units as the source transmitter.
An external 5VDC power supply is required for the CatXQ AV Rx2, which consumes less than 0.25Watts.
