CatX AVP Tx2
Description
The CatX AVP Tx4 / 8 transmitters broadcast a sharp high quality videos at distances of up to 300m (600m span), using low cost cat5 UTP cable.
These VGA cat5 extenders are very low power and of highest build quality. The maximum high resolution of 2048 x 1536 makes the CatX AVP Tx4 / 8 the best quality units in this category.
CatX AVP Tx4 and CatX AVP Tx8 transmitters each have two modes of operation: VP mode (Video+Power) and AV mode (Audio+Video). In VP mode, the transmitters can directly power CatX Mini VP receiver units on the selected outputs, up to 150m. This further reduces cost and simplifies installation at the receiver end.
Both these transmitters provide a sharp high quality video at up to 300m, using low cost cat5 cabling and consume less than 0.25W per output.
These VGA cat5 extenders can also cascade to increase the number of outputs available, providing maximum configuration flexibility. The units also provide local VGA and audio outputs.
An optional 1U rack mount kit can accommodate up to two CatX AVP Tx4 / 8 transmitters. Alternatively, the units can be secured using optional wall or DIN rail mounting brackets.
