ABOUT YOUR DA1921SX 2
The DA1921SX is a high-resolution 1-in 2-out
computer video amplifier/receiver. It converts
differential signals from a CAT-5 transmitter to
single ended video signals. These single ended
signals allow the source to be distributed to large
screen projectors or other displays with excellent
quality at long distances. The DA1921SX is
designed to be used together with a compatible
CAT-5 computer video transmitter, such as model
DA1920SX. The DA1921SX is connected to the
transmitter using
twisted pair CAT-5 UTP
(Category 5, 5e, 6) type cable.
The DA1921SX is compact and easy to use. It
offers a CAT-5 input, two fully buffered outputs and
equalization control.
It is perfect for audio/visual
installations, where a single computer sends
signals using inexpensive, thin, light CAT-5 cable.
The DA1921SX can receive signal resolutions from
VGA thru UXGA. Together with an ALTINEX
CAT-5 computer video transmitter and properly
adjusted with the built-in equalization controls, the
maximum cable distance is approximately 500
feet/152 meters for VGA (640 x 480, 60 Hz refresh
rate) and 250 feet/76.2 meters for UXGA (1600 x
1200, 60 Hz refresh rate). Please see the complete
specifications for other resolutions.
