Audio/Video Connections
The Audio and Video Loop Outputs are used to route source audio and video between each S128P chassis. Each
source connected to S128P Unit 1 must be routed to the corresponding source input on S128P Unit 2. This process
must be repeated for each chassis. Since both the audio and video loop outputs are buffered, there will be no loss
of signal between S128Ps. For video sources that output High- Definition Component signals, such as certain cable/
satellite receivers, HDDVD, and DVHS machines, only use cables that are HD-rated to loop these video signals
between chassis. Use of Standard Definition video cables will result in a degradation of video quality.
