CatLinc TM User’s Manual

The CatLinc™ family of products allows connection between two devices* utilizing CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 shielded twisted pair cable (STP), foil shielded twisted pair cable (FTP), or unshielded twisted pair cable (UTP). It is strongly recommended that you use shielded twisted pair cable (STP) or foil shielded twisted pair cable (FTP) with your CatLinc product, such as standard, off-the-shelf preterminated CAT5 networking cable. The Transmitter and Receiver units have been designed for easy installation and they are among the smallest in the industry.

The CatLinc VGA allows VGA (or RGBHV) connection between two devices using CAT5, CAT5e, or CAT6 twisted pair cable. Connection is made to devices using standard male HD-15 connectors. The CatLinc VGA Transmitter actively buffers and amplifies the source signal, eliminating the need for the interfaces or distribution amplifiers that are often required with VGA signals.

CatLinc VGA can extend a VGA signal up to 91m/300ft over standard CAT5 cable. At typical distances this product will provide excellent image quality for all resolutions. It can be used for longer runs, but the image quality may be reduced. A Distance/Resolution chart (Page 4, Table 1) indicates supported resolutions based on CAT5 cable length. A single screwdriver adjustment at the Receiver allows fine-tuning for best picture detail (see page 3)
