The included power supplies

VGA extender Signal HD allows for connecting a monitor or television with VGA input to a remote (up to 100 m) source of signal with VGA output. The video signal that can have resolution up to 1920x1080@60Hz is converted into IP stream and transmitted via cat. 5e or cat. 6 twisted pair cable. The set includes transmitter, receiver and 2 power supplies.

IP signal coming from the transmitter may be applied to an Ethernet switch to split it among multiple receivers. The bit rate of the compressed signal at the output of the transmitter operating in multicast mode is about 20 Mbps. The output signal can be properly decoded only by the dedicated receivers - it cannot be done by a PC equipped with a network card.

The set is perfect for connecting remote HD source like PC or DVR/NVR with VGA output to HD-enabled TV/monitor/projector with VGA input. It requires to use only one, comparatively thin cable, which makes it easy to hide it, e.g. when installing the TV/monitor on an LCD mount.

Remark!
It is possible to change the VGA + AUDIO signals to HDMI by the application of the transmitter from the Signal HD VGA extender set and the Signal HD receiver H3615 (IP to HDMI). This way the original signals (VGA + AUDIO) transmitted over UTP cable over a distance up to 100 meters can be played on any monitor/television with HDMI input.

The use of the H3615 IP to HDMI receiver/converter along with the transmitter of the H3618 set

The converter/extender uses High-Definition Digital Bit Transmission Technology (HDbitT). HDbitT is a protocol used for professional delivery/transmission of high-quality image and audio over IP networks. The protocol supports video resolutions of up to 4Kx2K @ 60Hz, transmitted wirelessly or over network cables, electrical installations, optical fibers, or coaxial cables.
