Connection:
Connecting the video signal to or from the
product through a 75Ω coax cable with BNC
plug.
● Connect the output data port (eg. TX+ and
TX-) of other control device to the RX+ and
RX- of the RX.
● Connect the input data port (eg. RX+ and
RX-) of other under controlled device to the
TX+ and TX- of the TX.
● GND in both TX and RX should be
