Feature Overview

Video Resolution

The Splitter supports video resolutions up to 2048x1536@85Hz through a
400MHz video bandwidth.

Light-Emitting Diode

The LED display on the front panel of the Splitter functions as a status
monitor. An LED above each direct-access monitor selector lights to
indicate which monitors are currently active.

Direct-Access Monitor Selectors

Located conveniently on the front panel of the Splitter, direct-access
monitor selectors allow for simple, manual monitor selection. Each button
controls a monitor.

Equipment Requirements

Cables

To connect to the computer, the Splitter requires one VGA cable. Video
resolution support of up to 2048x1536@85Hz requires use of a 75-Ohm
coaxial VGA cable to preserve signal integrity. VGA cables must have
HDDB15 female-to-HDDB15 male connectors. The following cable is
recommended for your Splitter.
