DS Vision® Digital - Scalability 13
8 Scalability
There are two types of methods to extend the system scale:
• Cascade a receiver with a broadcaster/transmitter to increase the distance of
the system
• Cascade a broadcaster with a broadcaster/transmitter to increase the
number of supported displays
8.1 Cascading to Increase the Distance
Cascade up to six distribution systems to increase the distance up to 600m
(2,000ft).
Figure 11 illustrates a 2-hop cascaded system.
Figure 11: 2-Hop Cascaded System
To connect the receiver to the broadcaster/transmitter, connect the following
cables (see
Figure 11):
• HDMI to HDMI (type A, male/male)
• For serial control: Serial cable - (9-pin D-sub male/female).
• For IP connectivity: Ethernet/Management cable - Ethernet 10/100BaseT
straight-through cable.
