NTI VOPEX SERIES DVI SPLITTER/EXTENDER VOPEX INSTALLATION VOPEX-C6DVI(A-LA)-4 Note: VOPEX-C6DVI-4 Video Only Splitter/Extender does not have audio support. If the audio support is not present, please disregard all audio references. 1. Make connections between the VOPEX and the audio and video source(s). (See Fig. 1.) Connect one end of the DVI-IS-3-MM (supplied) to the DVI connector on the video source.
NTI VOPEX SERIES DVI SPLITTER/EXTENDER VOPEX-C6DVIA-LA-4 Once the DVI video and stereo audio source connections have been made, if the Local Access (LA) option is present, a monitor and (where applicable) self-powered stereo speakers can be connected. 1. Connect the cable from the local user's HDTV display to the DVI female connector marked "DVI Video Out" on the VOPEX.
NTI VOPEX SERIES DVI SPLITTER/EXTENDER REMOTE UNIT INSTALLATION ST-C6DVI(A)-R-300 Position a ST-C6DVIA-R-300 Remote Unit such that the CATx cable, the monitor cable, and speaker cable can each reach the Remote Unit comfortably.

NTI VOPEX SERIES DVI SPLITTER/EXTENDER CASCADING The VOPEX-C6DVI-LA-4 can be cascaded for larger configurations and greater flexibility. By connecting the “DVI Video Out” port (models with Local Access feature only) on one VOPEX with the “DVI-Video In” port on another VOPEX (4, 8, or 16 port, doesn’t matter what size), your configuration can increase in size with a minimum of effort.
