1x3 Composite/S-Video Splitte
Description
The Model CSV-3 is a compact and highly versatile S-video and Composite Video 3-way
video splitter in one tiny box. Use this unit to split a Composite Video, S-Video, or both 3-ways
with no loss in image quality or ghosting. The outputs can also drive video cables to 200 feet
(please contact HRT for recommended cable type and part number).
The Model CSV-3 terminates the input signals (to eliminate reflections and ghosting), buffers
the signals using 250 MHz video amplifiers, and independently drives each output. A blue
LED indicates power on status.
Hall Research offers top-quality S-video and Composite Video cables (with RCA and/or BNC)
at lengths up to 100 feet or longer.
Features
• Powerful wideband amplifiers buffer the signal for best image quality
• Allows 3 S-Video and 3-Composite Video (up to 6) monitors to be driven
simultaneously
• Very Compact Size
• Can drive long cables
Setup
Your package should include the Model CSV-3 and a power adapter. Please take inventory
