Product Overview
The IN3264 / IN3268 is a high-resolution dedicated VGA distribution amplifier designed to amplify
and split the VGA / SVGA / XGA signal from a single computer video card to four or eight data grade
displays such as data monitors, LCD projectors, presentation monitors, graphics projectors or other output
devices. The IN3264 / IN3268 features 15-Pin HD connectors for input and outputs, allowing for direct
connection to VGA-type video sources and displays using high-resolution coaxial VGA extension cables
such as the IN8000 series.
The units are identical except for the number of outputs and the number of sharpness controls:
The IN3264 has four buffered outputs and one sharpness control.
The IN3268 has eight buffered outputs and two sharpness controls.
FEATURES
Universal VGA Signal Compatibility - While the IN3264 / IN3268 is primarily designed for VGA-
type video cards and monitors, this distribution amplifier’s six discreet amplification paths make it capable
of amplifying analog video signals in a variety of sync formats including RGBHV, RGBS, RGsB, and
RGBHVS. The IN3264 / IN3268 can connect to MAC, SUN, SGI and other high-resolution workstations
and monitors by using input and output adapter cables (see list on page 7).
Ultra High-resolution Amplification - Featuring 300 MHz video bandwidth and four or eight
buffered outputs, the IN3264 / IN3268 provides excellent video performance, ensuring maximum image
clarity with VGA-type and other analog video signals at virtually any resolution.
Sync Format / Polarity Preservation - Some display devices depend on receiving VGA, MAC, SUN,
SGI and other signals in their original sync format with unchanged sync polarity to ensure proper
operation. The IN3264 / IN3268 output signals have the same sync format and polarity as the input signal,
ensuring excellent operation with a wide range of compatible CRT, LCD, DMD, and Plasma Data Display
devices.
Buffered Outputs - The IN3264 / IN3268 features four or eight buffered outputs and provides the
amplification necessary to extend data displays 100 feet or greater from the source computer when used
with high-resolution coaxial cables. Maximum drive distance is dependent on both the input signal
resolution and the quality of the output cables. The IN8000 Series VGA extension cables (available in
various lengths from 6’ to 100’) are specifically designed for this purpose.
A Sharpness Control provides effective image enhancement for high-resolution video signals by
increasing clarity and edge detail. Monitor Emulation Dip Switches located on the bottom of the units
engage emulation for a VGA color monitor or MAC 13" / 14" RGB monitor. Two IN3264 or IN3268
amplifiers may be rack mounted side-by-side in a 1U rack space using the optional IN9080 rack shelf.
