Description
The CatX AV Wall Plate transmitter provides a new solution for transmitting Audio+Video (AV) over a single cat5/6 UTP cable up to 300m. This unit also has DDC/EDID functionality, making operation and setup with any VGA display easy and straight forward. This unit can also be supplied in a variety of Wall plate finishes and formats to match other fittings.
This unit has very low power consumption (less than 0.3W). The transmitter connects to a VGA source using a VGA Male/Male cable. The unit can be powered by any DDC2B (or later) compliant VGA source, so no external PSU is required. This transmitter is video compatible with the CatX Mini and AVP range receivers and repeaters.
