About the RGB 170
The RGB 170 is an ultra high performance RGB computer video

signal over 185 m. (600 feet) using Extron Mini HR cables, or
300 m. (1000 feet) using Extron RG6 cable. The RGB 170
processes both RGB and HDTV component signals.
The RGB 170 has one gain potentiometer and two peaking
potentiometers on the front panel. On the rear panel, the
RGB 170 provides one 15-pin HD connector for RGBHV input,
fi ve BNCs for RGBHV output, and one 15-pin HD connector
for loop-through output. The unit restores the sync signals, but

The RGB 170 is housed in a 1U, half rack, 6" deep, 2-piece
enclosure, and uses an internal power supply.
