HELPFUL HINT
Make precise gain, peak and skew adjustments in seconds. Each receiver features a simple dial and LED indicator for simple skew adjustments. A push of the dial and the LED illuminates with the color activated for adjustment (red, green, or blue). And, white indicates stereo audio volume control. Gain and peak adjustments are also simple via external potentiometers.

OVERVIEW
Integrate routing and transmission of RGBHV + stereo over twisted pair cable, eliminating the need for external transmission devices. With the ability to maintain resolutions up to 1600x1200 or 1920x1080 @ 60 Hz even at distances of up to 1,000 feet, you don't have to compromise video quality to run long distances.

COMMON APPLICATION
Ideal for any small application sending local computer video to long distance outputs, such as lobby areas, education, portable command-and-control, or museum kiosk areas.
