How to install SIIG VGA & Audio Long Range CAT5 Extender

Setting up the extender is straightforward and designed to minimize downtime. Begin by connecting the transmitter unit to the source device’s VGA video output and its local audio output. Route a CAT5e/6 cable from the transmitter to the location of the receiver near the display. At the remote site, connect the receiver to the display’s VGA input and to the corresponding audio input. If your kit includes external power adapters, connect them to both the transmitter and receiver and ensure they are powered on. Verify that all connections are secure and free from physical strain or kinks in the cable, which can impact signal integrity. Keep the CAT5e/6 run away from high-power cables and sources of EMI to maintain the best possible performance. Once powered, switch on the source device and the display, and test video alignment and audio playback. If color or timing appears off, recheck cable connections and resistive losses along the run, and adjust the display settings to optimize clarity.

• Connect the transmitter to the computer or video source’s VGA and audio outputs.
• Run a CAT5e/6 cable to the display location, keeping the route clean and free from sharp bends.
• Attach the receiver to the display’s VGA input and to the audio input if needed; ensure connectors are firmly seated.
• Connect and power the units as required by your kit; confirm power is supplied to both ends.
• Power on all devices and test the video and audio signals; adjust display settings if necessary for optimal performance.
