Frequently Asked Questions - AT-RGB45SR Atlona

What is the maximum transmission distance of the AT-RGB45SR?

The AT-RGB45SR can extend video and audio up to 150 feet (45 meters) over a single CAT5/6/7 cable.

What resolutions does the AT-RGB45SR support?

It supports resolutions from VGA (640x480) up to WUXGA (1920x1200) including common formats like 1080p.

Does the AT-RGB45SR support audio?

Yes, it transmits stereo audio alongside video. The transmitter has a 3.5mm audio input and the receiver has a 3.5mm audio output.

Do I need to use a specific type of CAT cable?

Atlona recommends using CAT6 UTP (solid) cables, but the extender works with CAT5, CAT5e, CAT6, and CAT7 cables.

How do I connect the AT-RGB45SR?

Connect your PC's VGA and audio outputs to the transmitter. Run a single CAT cable from the transmitter's RJ45 output to the receiver's RJ45 input. Then connect the receiver's VGA and audio outputs to your display or projector.

Does the extender require external power?

Yes, both the transmitter and receiver need power. Two 5V DC power supplies are included in the package.

What is DDC/EDID support and why is it important?

DDC (Display Data Channel) allows the video card to read the EDID of the connected display, ensuring correct resolution and settings. The AT-RGB45SR supports DDC, which is crucial for proper video output.

Can I use the AT-RGB45SR with component video?

Yes, with appropriate VGA-to-component adapters, the AT-RGB45SR can transmit component video signals.

What should I do if the device stops working?

INTRODUCTION

The Atlona AT-RGB45SR (transmitter and Receiver) Extender units with stereo Audio allow users to extend Video signal with resolutions VGA\~WUXGA (640x480\~1920x1200) up to 150ft (45m). The RGB45SR is designed to extender both audio and video on a single low cost CAT5, 6 or 7 Cable. The extenders are featured with DDC (EDID) support, which is needed for video cards to know what the display capabilities are. The AT-RGB45SR extenders transfer signal in real time with less than 2ms of delay.

Note: The AT-RGB45SR is capable of sending Component Video signal via VGA/Component adapters.

APPLICATIONS

• Office Workstation: PC to Monitor Extension allows extending video and audio up to 150ft away from the workstation.
• Conference Room or Boardroom: PC to Projector Extension allows extending video signal over long distance utilizing existing CAT5, 6 or 7 cables. This solution is perfect for Schools and Universities.
• Computer/Monitor Testing: Since the AT-RGB45SR are capable of supporting DDC (EDID), it would make it easy for QA department to test Displays/computers which are further away from the testing area.
• Airport/Train Station: The RGB45SR's are based on low power chip-set which is designed to work for many years without a need to reboot/reset.
