User Guide 1 Overview The EKKO Projector adapter (incorporating EKKO Display Technology from Newnham Research, Cambridge, UK) allows a PC to display an image on a projector via an Ethernet network. The adapter provides an Ethernet interface to a projector or other LCD computer monitor. It connects to the projector using a conventional VGA cable, and to the local area network via a standard CAT5 cable.
Network 2.1.1 Network Configuration The EKKO Projector adapter will work on Ethernet networks running at 10 Mb/s or 100 Mb/s and is connected to the network using standard CAT5 cabling. Full performance requires a 100 Mb/s connection from the projector adapter to a switch. For best performance with multiple EKKOs, the network should be configured using a 1Gbps backbone and multiple 100 Mb/s segments, each connecting to a single adapter.
