The MT103-118/120 is a dual 1-in 3-out Composite
(C) Video and S-Video Distribution Amplifier (DA)
Card. There is one BNC C-Video input with three
BNC C-Video outputs and one S-Video input with
3 S-Video outputs. It is designed for use in

(C) Video and S-Video Distribution Amplifier (DA)
Card. There is one BNC C-Video input with three
BNC C-Video outputs and one S-Video input with
3 S-Video outputs. It is designed for use in
Multi-Tasker
enclosures. When installed in a
Multi-Tasker
enclosure, this DA card enables the
connection of a single S-Video and/or Composite
video source to up to three displays or recording
devices each. On the MT103-120, each output
may be individually enable or disabled through
RS-232 control.

A variety of video signal formats can be
accommodated by using multiple DA cards in a

accommodated by using multiple DA cards in a
Multi-Tasker
enclosure. For example, two
S-Video DA cards can be used to handle the two
components of an S-Video signal (Chroma and
Luma). To create a component S-Video distribution
amplifier, simply install three of the MT S-Video DA
cards, one each for the Y, Pr, and Pb (or Y, R-Y,
B-Y) signal components. Similarly, the MT S-Video
DA series cards can also be used to pass
computer video signals: 4 cards for RGBS and 5
for RGBHV.

The MT103-120 also features Equalization
adjustment. The equalization allows the user to
adjust the signal when long cable lengths are
involved. The Equalization circuitry is good for
cable runs up to about 250 feet when a high
quality 75 ohm coaxial cabled is used.
