Installation
Pre-Configuration
Consider the following when deciding where to place the CAT5
Extender:
• the lengths of the cables attached to your keyboard, monitor, and
mouse
• the location of your computer or KVM switch
• the lengths of the cables you'll use to connect the Transmitter and
Receiver units
Cable-Distance Requirements
VGA signals transmit best at shorter cable lengths. At longer cable
lengths, the probability of video degradation increases. For this reason,
Belkin recommends that the length of the CAT5 patch cable between the
Transmitter and Receiver units does not exceed 500 feet (150m).
Warning! Avoid placing cables near fluorescent lights, air-conditioning
equipment, or machines that create electrical noise (e.g., vacuum
cleaners).
You are now ready to begin installation of your CAT5 Extender.
