, the screen may become distorted or noise 
may occur depending on factors such as the quality of the 
original signal, cable length, and number of connected 
devices.

Daisy-chain:
This is a method to connect one signal to multiple 
devices in sequence  by connecting the through-out of 
a signal connected to an input connector of a device to 
a second connector of this unit or to an input connector 
of a second device, and connecting that through-out to 
a third connector of this unit or an input connector of a 
third device, and so on.
• Use a 5CFB or equivalent cable to connect to an SDI con-
nector.
2   DisplayPort connectors
A
   DisplayPort1 signal input connector
Use a double shielded cable to connect to a DisplayPort 
connector.
B
   DisplayPort2 signal input connector
Use a double shielded cable to connect to a DisplayPort 
connector.
3   HDMI connectors
A
   HDMI1 signal input connector
Use a double shielded cable to connect to an HDMI con-
nector.
B
   HDMI2 signal input connector
Use a double shielded cable to connect to an HDMI con-
nector.
4   RS-232C input connector (D-SUB, 9-pin)
External control is possible with an RS-232C signal.
• Use a shielded cable to connect to the RS-232C input con-
nector.
5   GPI input connector (D-SUB, 9-pin)
External control is possible with a GPI signal.
• Use a shielded cable to connect to the GPI input connec-
tor.
6   RS-485 input/output connectors (RJ-45)
External control is possible with an RS-485 signal.
• Use a shielded cable to connect to an RS-485 input/output 
connector.
• Make sure that the cable plug is fully inserted in the con-
nector and cannot easily be pulled out.
• A daisy chain connection using the RS-485 input/output 
connectors enables the control of multiple monitors (up to 
32 monitors).
• Connect a terminator (120 Ω) between the first and sec-
ond pin of the RS-485 OUT terminal on the last monitor in 
the chain.
