Extend VGA Video and Audio by PC Cable Kit
5.1 AVE-301T Single-Port Transmitter Installation:
(1) Site Selection: In your first 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.
Unit attached with Rack Mounting Kit
(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 “GA+AUDIO
IN” port of Transmitter box and then connect monitor and peaker to the
“VGA OUT” and “AUDIO” ports. The Transmitter can ake the power through
the USB port or if you are using DVD Player or other devices without USB
port, you can plug optional power adaptor AC7.5V, 1A).

(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.
5.2 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 fix 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.

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) 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.
5.3 AVE-300 Multi-Port Model: Installation and Operation:
(1) Site Selection: In your first time installation, place Transmitter near the
PC or AV devices; you can use rack mounting kit to fix the system box.

Multi-Port Unit
(2) Connecting Monitor and Speaker: Plug power adapter 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.

(3) Local Function Test: Power on your AV device, the “ACTIVE” LEDs of
Transmitter will turn on orange to indicate the video activation, and you
should ready to do AV broadcasting.

(4) Receiver Installation: Please follow previous section for AVE-301R to
install the system Receiver, please note that the maximum extended length
of this section should not exceed 300 meters.
(5) Transceiver Installation: If you wish to expand the AV displays, you can
use system Transceiver, you can 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 l ocally and the maximum local stacking capacity is limited to
layers to ensure good broadcasting quality.

(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.
Stack 3 Layers of AV Extender through Cat-X to Reach more Displays
(7) Local System Expansion: You can also stack up to 3 layers of system
Transceiver to generate more RJ-45 outputs of AV signal locally, please
refer to following diagram.
