Hardware Installation
(B) Single Stage Installation
In a single stage installation, no additional video splitters are cascaded from the first unit. To set up a single stage installation, do the following:
- Use a high density HDB-15 male/female video extender cable to connect the PC or source device’s video port to the Video In port on the rear of the Video Splitter.
- Use 2/4/8 high density HDB-15 male/female video extender cables to connect 2/4/8 monitors/display devices to the Video Splitter’s Video Out ports located on the rear panel.
- Plug the power adapter that came with the package into an AC power source; plug the power adapter cable into the Video Splitter’s power jack.
- Power on the Video splitter; power on the monitors/display devices; power on the PC/source device.
(C) Cascading
To provide even more displays, additional units can be cascaded from the Video Splitter’s Output ports. Simply use additional high density HDB-15 male/female video extender cables to connect any available Video Out on the parent splitter to the Video In port on the child splitter. See number 5 in the installation diagram.
You can cascade as many VS92A/VS94A/VS98A units as there are ports available, and all three models can be mixed on the same cascade.
