Composite Video, S-Video, and Audio Mini Distribution Amplifiers

A u D i o / vi De o D i s t r i b u t i o n A mp li f i e r s

Commo n feAture s

•

Rack mountable 1U, quarter rack width metal enclosure

•

Versatile mounting options including rack, projector, and under-desk mounts

•

External universal power supply included, part # 70-055-01

DesCr iPtion

The Extr on MDA Series consists of one input, three or five outp ut composite video,
S-video, or stereo audio Mini Distribution Amplifiers. Both composite video and S-video models
output an amplified signal up to 150 feet (45 meters).

Part of the VersaTools® line of economical, compact products, MDA Series mini distribution
amplifiers are rack or under-desk mountable and include an external international power supply.
Their small size makes them the ideal solution for easy integration into both new and existing
A/V systems including boardrooms, training facilities, home theater, command and control
centers, and rental and staging environments.
