Page 9: Ddc/Edid Support
Specifications DDC/EDID Support For best compatibility with source devices (ex: a PC), an extension device (T4 in this case) should provide an appropriate DDC/EDID profile with the proper resolution and timing information. This helps ensure best compatibility with display devices connected at the remote end. The T4 supports a simple yet very flexible DDC/EDID management scheme: •... -
Page 10: Auxiliary Signal Support
This allows one video source to be sent to many displays at the same time – with the absolute minimum amount of signal degradation possible. Magenta Research products are compatible with standard CAT5/5e/6 data cabling as well as specialized “low skew” cabling manufactured primarily for video applications. Note that some “low skew” cabling is specific to a particular equipment vendor or application and may not compatible with MultiView™... -
Page 11: Chapter 4 Installation
Installation Chapter 4 Installation CAT5/5e/6 cabling for the Magenta MultiView™ II Series must be pinned to the TIA-EIA T568B wiring specification. Figure 1 T568B CAT5 Specification We also highly recommend that all CAT5 cables be pre-terminated and tested. Cables terminated on-site or in an existing infrastructure should be tested before use to ensure compliance with the TIA-EIA T568B specification. -
Page 12: Installation Procedure
At the T4 transmitter end: Connect the source video to the Magenta MultiView™ II Series transmitter video input port, which is a standard HD15-female (VGA) connector labeled SOURCE IN. If desired, attach a local monitor to the VGA connector labeled LOCAL OUT (optional). - Page 13 Installation At the receiver end (these steps are generic - refer to the appropriate receiver manual): Connect the VIDEO OUTPUT connector to the display, and attach any audio (AUX I/O) and/or serial connections depending on the model of MultiView™ receiver and option module installed.
