Mx Rgb Video Distribution Balun Mx-2788
The MX RGB Video Distribution Balun (MX-2788) is a high-performance solution designed to transmit RGB (Red, Green, Blue) video signals over Category 5 cables (Cat 5e or Cat 6). This compact and reliable product allows users to send three composite video signals (instead of just one component video signal), making it ideal for distributing RGB video signals across long distances while maintaining quality.
Key Features and Benefits
Transmits RGB Video Signals
The MX-2788 RGB Video Distribution Balun enables the transmission of three composite video signals through a single Category 5 cable, offering an efficient and space-saving way to connect multiple video devices. This feature is especially beneficial when working with systems that require the distribution of RGB signals (Red, Green, Blue) across several monitors, projectors, or other display devices.
Analog Video Processing (480i Support)
The MX RGB Video Balun supports analog video processing up to 480i resolution. While it doesn’t support digital video formats like 1080p, it delivers clear and high-quality analog signals for standard-definition video. This makes it an ideal choice for applications where high-definition video isn’t necessary, such as in older video equipment or legacy systems.
Extended Transmission Distance (Up to 500 ft)
With the MX-2788, you can send HDTV signals and Digital Audio up to a distance of 500 feet using a single Category 5 cable. This significantly reduces the complexity of installations and eliminates the need for bulky, expensive cables. The extended distance capability ensures that your video and audio signals remain reliable over long cable runs, making it ideal for commercial, industrial, or residential use where long-distance video distribution is required.
Compact and Reliable Design
The MX RGB Video Distribution Balun is engineered with a compact and reliable design, making it easy to install and integrate into existing systems. Its small form factor allows it to be placed in tight spaces, such as behind monitors or in equipment racks, without taking up unnecessary space. Despite its small size, the balun maintains high performance and ensures stable signal transmission over long distances.
Cost Savings
By using Category 5 cables to transmit RGB video and digital audio signals, the MX-2788 helps you reduce installation costs. Cat 5 cables are more affordable and widely available compared to traditional video cables like composite or component video cables. This cost-effective solution provides significant savings, particularly in large installations.
Simple Installation
The installation of the MX RGB Video Distribution Balun is straightforward. It can be easily integrated into existing video systems by connecting the RGB video sources and video displays to the balun’s input and output ports. The use of Category 5 cables simplifies the process further, as these cables are typically already part of the infrastructure in commercial and residential settings.
Applications
- Home Theater Systems: The MX-2788 is ideal for home theater systems that require RGB video distribution to multiple monitors or projectors. With a 500 ft range, it can efficiently transmit video signals across larger rooms or multiple rooms without signal degradation.
- Commercial AV Installations: For businesses, offices, or schools that need to distribute video signals to various display devices, the MX RGB Video Balun offers a reliable and cost-effective solution for long-distance signal transmission.
- Security and Surveillance Systems: In surveillance setups where video feeds from multiple cameras need to be sent to a central monitoring station or various monitors, the MX-2788 can efficiently carry the RGB video signals over long distances.
- Legacy Systems: For older AV equipment that uses analog video signals (up to 480i resolution), the MX-2788 is an excellent choice, providing an easy way to connect and distribute the video signals over standard Cat 5 cables.
