Installation

Hardware Installation

This product is composed of two dierent units: the Local Unit and the Remote Unit. The
Local Unit takes the output from a VGA signal source (usually a computer) and transmits
it to the Remote Unit over Category 5 Ethernet cable. The remote displays (monitor,
projector, etc) connect to the Remote Unit using standard VGA connections and displays
the image from the local computer onto the remote displays.
