Introduction

AVE-300 is a broadcast system to transmit Audio and Video signals over
Cat5/5e/6 cable, it can reach the distance up to 300m and by stacking more
system Transceivers, the whole system can extend AV signals up to 900m.
You can use different cable kit to broadcast VGA, Component, Composite,
or S-video from multimedia output devices. The video quality can be
adjusted very easily from the FOCUS and GAIN Control in the Receiver. It
can simplify the installation by using single Cat5/5e/6 cable and reach a
longer distance; the AV extender is a perfect extension solution for projector,
plasma TV, LCD TV, LCD monitor, HDTV, and CRT, as well as in the area of
Digital Signage broadcasting.

Installation and Operation

AVE-300 supports different video format by using different cable kit. Section
1 will describe how to extend VGA and Audio signals by PC cable kit and in

Section 2&3, you should nd the description of how to use HDTV and TV

cable kit to extend Component, Composite, and S-Video

Section 1: Extend VGA Video and Audio by PC Cable Kit

1. AVE-301T Single-Port Transmitter Installation:

(1) Site Selection: In your rst time installation, place Transmitter near the

PC or AV devices (Audio and Video outputs); you can use magnetic
pad to attach the unit on metal plane (Ex. PC / Server Enclosure) or
use attachable rack mounting kit to fix the unit on selected area by
screw or nail.

Un it att ach ed wit h R ack Mo unting Kit an d t he Rac k M oun tin g K it

(2) Connecting Monitor and Speaker: Take a 3-in-1 cable (VGA + Audio

+ USB Power) to connect the signal from your AV device to the
“VGA+AUDIO IN” port of Transmitter box and then connect monitor and
speaker to the “VGA OUT” and “AUDIO” ports. The Transmitter can
take the power through the USB port or if you are using DVD Player
or other device without USB port, you can plug optional power adaptor
(AC7.5V, 1A ).

Ins tal lat ion Di agr am of Sys tem Tran smi tte r AVE -301T

(3) Function Test: Turn on your AV device, the POWER LED should turn

on green to indicate the POWER ON status and the LEDs above RJ-45
will blink before VGA signal is turned ON and remain ON after VGA
signal is turned ON.

2. Receiver AVE-301R installation and UTP Connection

(1) Site Selection: Please place Receiver in an appropriate place and have

the UTP cable settled for later connection ; you can use magnetic pad
to attach the unit on metal plane or use attachable rack mounting kit to

x the unit on selected area by screw or nail.

(2) Power Up: Plug power adapter to the Receiver and connect monitor and

speaker to the “VGA OUT” and “AUDIO” port. The POWER LED will
turn on green to indicate the POWER ON status and the LED above
RJ-45 port should blink to indicate the AV signal unconnected status.

(3) Selection of UTP Cable: For best VGA resolution, please use Cat5

Enhanced cable (350MHz bandwidth) for connection, please noted that
the maximum extended length of one section (one pair of Transmitter
or Receiver) should not exceed 300 meters. The connector must be
made by 568B/568B type.

(6) Problem and Solving: If you find unstable image or audio problems

after installation, please confirm following list or contact your direct
vendor for further assistance:

a. Check if PC’s VGA resolution and frequency over the limit of monitor

display, if so, please change the VGA configuration from Windows
Control panel.

b. Try to connect Monitor and speaker directly to a PC, and ensure the

basic function of these devices.

c. When using LCD or same type monitor, there might have some image

offset or blinking, please adjust the position, clock or phase of the
LCD monitor, or simply press Auto Adjust / Tune to have a better
image solution.

3. AVE-300 Multi-Port Model: Installation and Operation

(1) Site Selection: In your rst time installation, place Transmitter near the

PC or AV devices; you can use rack mounting kit to x the system box.

(2 ) Conne ct ing Mon it or and S pe aker: P lug power a dapte r to the

Transmitter and connect monitor and speaker to “VGA/AUDIO OUT”
port. The POWER LED will turn on green to indicate the POWER ON
status and ”ACTIVE” LEDs should turn off to indicate the unconnected
status. Then, prepare VGA and audio cables to connect the signal
from your AV device to the “VGA/AUDIO IN” port of Transmitter box.

The EIA/TIA denation of 568B in the pin assignment is

(1) orange white, (2) orange, (3) green white, (4) blue,
(5) blue white, (6) green, (7) brown white, and (8) brown

(4) Connect UTP Cable : Plug two ends of UTP cable to Transmitter

and Receiver’s RJ45 SYSTEM LINK ports, the Receiver’s connected
monitor and speaker should work now and the LEDs above RJ-45 port
should remain ON. You can adjust the “FOCUS” and “GAIN” control of
Receiver to have the best VGA display.

(5) Function Test: After above installation, you will be able to broadcast the

AV signal to Receiver’s connected monitor and speaker.

(6) System Expansion through UTP: This series can stack into maximum

three layers of UTP section to reach more AV outputs and depends on
the display devices, you may reach a lower VGA solution than single
layer. The suggested range of VGA broadcasting is 800x600@900m,
1280x1024@600m, and 2048x1536@300m. Please be noted that you
must use Transceiver for intermediate expansion.

(4) Receiver Installation: Please follow previous section 2 for AVE-301R to

install the system Receiver, and the maximum extended length of this
section should not exceed 300 meters.

(5) Transceiver Installation: If you wish to have more AV displays, you can

use system Transceiver, you may use 4/8-Port Transceiver model to
expand one AV signal to 4/8 AV signals. In the other way, you may stack
more system Transmitter through their local AV port to generate more
AV RJ-45 outputs locally and the maximum local stacking capacity is
limited to 4 layers to ensure good broadcasting quality. Please follow
next two section for instruction.
