Description
The CatX AVP Matrix 2×8 transmitter routes two VGA video sources over cat5 or cat6 cable, in any combination, to a maximum of eight displays, depending on the display resolution. Designed for ease of installation, this unit will broadcast VGA video and audio over cat6 UTP cable at 720p/1080i.
This product connects direct to the two VGA sources, there is no local VGA output on this device.
A built-in web interface facilitates the routing of the input and output settings and aslo provides diagnostic information.
The Ethernet interface only allows access from authenticed users (one administrator and many operators) and is securely protected against malicious attacks.
These units use a state of the art chip set thus ensuring compatibility and reliability.
