Console Extender 1. General U97-ULTRA-2B kit is used to extend Dual Display PC Video, Audio (both amplified or line-level), RS-232, and 3 independent USB ports to a remote location up to 150 m (500 feet) away on any Category Cable (CAT5e/6 UTP or STP). -
Page 6: Catx Cable Requirements
U97-ULTRA 1.1 Catx Cable Requirements The connection between Sender (local) and Receiver (remote) unit requires 3 Category cables. Though Cat5e cables can be used, for best results, it is recommended to use CAT6 (UTP or STP) particularly for distances beyond 300 ft. Zero or low-skew cables are not needed since the device incorporates skew correction on both video channels. - Page 7 Console Extender DB15 connector (with 2 rows of pins) for amplified audio input and loop output. If your source can drive speakers directly, you can use this connector to tie to the source. You still have a loop output which is directly wired to the input pins on the Ultra Sender, so a local speaker can still be plugged in.
