INTRODUCTION
The Linear 1:3 Component With Audio Distribution Amplier is the perfect solution
for anyone who needs to send one source of high denition component video
and analog or digital audio to multiple displays at the same time. It supports all
component equipment, such as DVD players and satellite set top boxes and all
component displays. In operation, the component video source is connected to the
distribution amplier at the input. Three outputs are available to be used in part or
in full. Once the unit is connected and powered, the source is distributed to three
component high denition displays at the same time.
How It Works
Simply connect the source’s component and audio cables to the 1:3’s input. Then,
connect up to three displays to the 1:3’s outputs. Power on the unit and watch up to
full High Denition 1080p on up to three displays without any signal loss or picture
degradation. When two or more 1:3’s are connected together, you can create a
larger video distribution system.
