TV One presents CAT 5 VGA extenders at ISE 2006 (19/1/2006)

Stand C19, ISE 2006

Sending VGA signals over long distances via standard CAT 5 cable has been made fast, easier and more affordable thanks to new solutions offered by CAT 5 VGA extenders just added to TV One's TV One-task(tm) product group, making their debut appearance at ISE 2006.

Comprising both transmitter and receiver, the 1T-VGA-CAT system is capable of encoding and decoding VGA signals with resolutions of up to 1280 x 1024 for remote viewing using a single CAT 5 cable. With the ability to travel distances of up to 180 Metres, a single transmitter/receiver combination can be used to provide an image to a single VGA monitor or projector.

Incorporating all of the features of the 1T-VGA-CAT system, the TV One-task 1T-VGA-CAT-XL doubles the range of operation to 300 Metres and provides a transmitter fitted with VGA loop-through. For applications requiring multiple displays, the product group model 1T-VGA4-CAT-TXL and model 1T-VGA8-CAT-TXL transmitters are built to handle the encoding of VGA signals with up to 1280 x 1024 resolution, and feed four and eight CAT 5 cables respectively, over distances of 300 Metres. VGA loop-through is also provided with these units.

Designed specifically for use with the 1T-VGA4-CAT-TXL and 1T-VGA8-CAT-TXL transmitters, the 1T-VGA-CAT-RXL receiver, as per all other receivers within the TV One-task CAT 5 VGA extender family is equipped with its own equalization and gain controls. A dedicated 1T-VGA-CAT RXL receiver is required for each VGA display device used in a given system.

To correct for RGB delay problems commonly associated with long-distance CAT 5 cable runs over 75 Metres, TV One also provides the 1T-RGB-DELAY skew corrector, combating skew that causes RGB images to be overlaid incorrectly. Placed between the host device and the CAT 5 transmitter, the 1T-RGB-DELAY can be used to delay discrete R,G,B signals as required, to bring the image back into correct registration at the remote location. Once all adjustments are finalised they can be locked out to avoid unintentional changes.
