User Manual/ Installation and Operation

AVE-300 supports different video format by using different cable kit. Section
1 will describe how to extend VGA and Audio signals by PC cable kit and inSection 2&3, you should find the description of how to use HDTV and TV
cable kit to extend Component, Composite, and S-Video

Section 1: Extend VGA Video and Audio by PC Cable Kit
1. AVE-301T Single-Port Transmitter Installation:(1) Site Selection: In your first time installation, place Transmitter near thePC or AV devices (Audio and Video outputs); you can use magnetic
pad to attach the unit on metal plane (Ex. PC / Server Enclosure) or
use attachable rack mounting kit to fix the unit on selected area byscrew or nail.

One-Port Transmitter

Installation Diagram of System Transmitter AVE-301T(3) Function Test: Turn on your AV device, the POWER LED should turnon green to indicate the POWER ON status and the LEDs above RJ-45
will blink before VGA signal is turned ON and remain ON after VGA
signal is turned ON.
2. Receiver AVE-301R installation and UTP Connection

Unit attached with Rack Mounting Kit and the Rack Mounting Kit(2) Connecting Monitor and Speaker: Take a 3-in-1 cable (VGA + Audio+ USB Power) to connect the signal from your AV device to the“VGA+AUDIO IN” port of Transmitter box and then connect monitor andspeaker to the “VGA OUT” and “AUDIO” ports. The Transmitter cantake the power through the USB port or if you are using DVD Playeror other device without USB port, you can plug optional power adaptor(AC7.5V, 1A ).
10(1) Site Selection: Please place Receiver in an appropriate place and havethe UTP cable settled for later connection ; you can use magnetic padto attach the unit on metal plane or use attachable rack mounting kit tofix the unit on selected area by screw or nail.
(2) Power Up: Plug power adapter to the Receiver and connect monitor andspeaker to the “VGA OUT” and “AUDIO” port. The POWER LED willturn on green to indicate the POWER ON status and the LED above
RJ-45 port should blink to indicate the AV signal unconnected status.
(3) Selection of UTP Cable: For best VGA resolution, please use Cat5
Enhanced cable (350MHz bandwidth) for connection, please noted thatthe maximum extended length of one section (one pair of Transmitteror Receiver) should not exceed 300 meters. The connector must bemade by 568B/568B type.

a. Check if PC’s VGA resolution and frequency over the limit of monitor
display, if so, please change the VGA configuration from Windows
Control panel.
b. Try to connect Monitor and speaker directly to a PC, and ensure thebasic function of these devices.
c. When using LCD or same type monitor, there might have some image
offset or blinking, please adjust the position, clock or phase of theLCD monitor, or simply press Auto Adjust / Tune to have a better
image solution.

Installation Diagram of System Transmitter(4) Receiver Installation: Please follow previous section 2 for AVE-301R to
install the system Receiver, and the maximum extended length of thissection should not exceed 300 meters.
(5) Transceiver Installation: If you wish to have more AV displays, you canuse system Transceiver, you may use 4/8-Port Transceiver model toexpand one AV signal to 4/8 AV signals. In the other way, you may stack
more system Transmitter through their local AV port to generate more
AV RJ-45 outputs locally and the maximum local stacking capacity islimited to 4 layers to ensure good broadcasting quality. Please follow
next two section for instruction.

(6) System Expansion through UTP: This series can stack into maximum
three layers of UTP section to reach more AV outputs and depends onthe display devices, you may reach a lower VGA solution than singlelayer. The suggested range of VGA broadcasting is 800x600@900m,1280x1024@600m, and 2048x1536@300m. Please be noted that you
must use Transceiver for intermediate expansion.
