Introduction

About the CVEQ1, CVEQ1 WM, and CVEQ1 AAP

The Extron CVEQ1 is a one-input, one-output, composite video
line driver. It features a 30 MHz (< ±0.5dB) video bandwidth.

It accepts one composite video input on a female BNC
connector and one stereo audio input on a pair of female RCA
connectors. One female BNC connector provides equalized
video output, and a five-pole captive screw connector provides
for stereo audio output.

The Extron CVEQ1 AAP is identical to the CVEQ1, except that it
is designed to be mounted in a double-space height architectural
adapter plate bracket (in a device’s faceplate or in an AAP
wallplate) for installation into a wall or furniture.

The CVEQ1 WM shares the features of the other two models,
but it has a 1-gang faceplate for installation into a UL-approved
electrical wall box set into a wall or furniture.

In this manual “CVEQ1”, and “line driver” will be used to refer
to all models interchangeably unless otherwise noted.

Features

Stereo audio — Unbalanced stereo audio input can be output as

balanced or unbalanced stereo audio.

Gain adjustment — All models offer a video gain adjustment

with a range of -6dB to +6dB.

Equalization adjustment — Each model also features an

equalization adjustment that changes the level and
peaking of the output signal to compensate for use of
long cables. The CVEQ1 series line drivers can drive
video signals through up to 1000 feet (304.8 meters) of
Extron SHR cable.

UL Requirements

The Underwriters Laboratories (UL) requirements listed below
pertain to the installation of the CVEQ1 WM and CVEQ1 AAP.

1. These units are not to be connected to a centralized DC
power source or used beyond their rated voltage range.

The Extron P/S 100, P/S 150, and other Extron power
supplies may be used with the CVEQ.

2. These units must be installed in UL listed junction boxes.

The UL approved electrical wall box (junction box) is not
included with the CVEQ; the installer is responsible for
obtaining and installing the box.

3. These units must be installed with conduit in accordance
with the National Electrical Code.

Preparing the Site and Installing the Wall Box

Choose a location that will allow cable runs without
interference. Allow enough depth for both the wall box and the
cables. You may need to install the cables into the wall,
furniture, or conduits before installing the line driver.

• The CVEQ1 AAP can be installed in an Extron two-gang, four­gang, or half rack width AAP Architectural Adapter Plate or in
the faceplate of another Extron device that accepts AAP plates,
such as an interface or distribution amplifier. Refer to the
mounting instructions for the adapter plate or device.

• The CVEQ1 WM can be installed in a standard one-gang
electrical wall box that is at least 2.5” deep. An optional one­gang mud ring is also available.

The installation must conform to national and local electrical
codes and to the line driver’s size requirements. A dimensional
drawing of the CVEQ1 WM and an actual-size cut-out template
