CAT-5/RGBHV CAT-5/RGBHV Applicability Notice This chapter pertains to the following CAT-5/RGBHV boards: Input boards 34-602, 34-605, 34-608, 34-611 Output board 34-614 Figure 1: CAT-5/RGBHV boards Each Modula CAT-5/RGBHV enclosure is built to hold up to sixteen CAT-5/RGBHV boards with four RJ-45 modular jacks each in a 32x32 configuration. Nine input and output combinations are possible: 32x32, 4x60, 8x56, 12x52, 16x48, 60x4, 56x8, 52x12, and 48x16, as well as subsets of these configurations (for example, 12x4 or 8x36).

CAT-5/RGBHV CAT-5/RGBHV 1.1 Attaching Cables When attaching HD-15 cables, refer to the sheet labeled AutoPatch Modula Connector Guide found inside the back cover of this binder. The sheet shows where to attach each cable (use CAT-5, CAT-5e, or CAT-6). Follow the sheet exactly; the system was programmed at the factory to operate only as indicated on the sheet. To attach the connector cables, insert the modular plugs into the appropriate input and output modular jacks (see Figure 2). Figure 2: Insert modular plugs into modular jacks A Modula containing CAT-5/RGBHV boards must be connected to RGBHV over CAT-5 transmitter-to-matrix-to-receiver boards in either an AutoPatch AF-10 or Module, or a combination of the two (see the combinations list in Figure 3). A transmitter board connects each source to the enclosure and a receiver board connects the enclosure to each destination. See the RGBHV over CAT-5 Boards insert included with AF-10s or Modules for more information. Each cabled set allows up to 300 ft. to maintain minimal specifications. Total distance must be <400 ft.

CAT-5/RGBHV Configuration Files 1.2 CAT-5/RGBHV Configuration Files X N Connect (the graphical configuration software program on the CD shipped with the Modula) supports Modula systems with CAT-5/RGBHV connectors. CAT-5/RGBHV Note: Use this software only if you need to change the configuration information from the original specification. In a Modula CAT-5/RGBHV system, each matrix is a signal path. When you select a connector in the virtual matrix view, the properties box in the right pane indicates the four signals for each connector as appended numbers. For example, in Figure 4 the connector for input six contains the following four signal paths: Modula WB_IN_006.1 for the R signal path Modula WB_IN_006.2 for the G signal path Modula WB_IN_006.3 for the B signal path Modula S_IN_006.4 for the Sync or HV signal path Figure 4: Input Connector properties showing 4 signal paths for one CAT-5/RGBHV connector See Chapter 8 in the Installation & Setup section of this binder for information on managing configuration files with X N Connect.

RGBHV over CAT-5 Transmitters & Receivers The RGBHV over CAT-5 Transmitter and Receiver boards which are tuned for use with Modula Series Distribution Matrices are referred to as Transmitter-to-Matrix-to-Receiver boards. RGBHV over CAT-5 Trans. & Receivers Each AutoPatch RGBHV over CAT-5 Transmitter and Receiver board has a High Density DB-15 connector and an RJ-45 connector. They are available as either stand-alone modules (see Figure 5) or as AF-10 boards (see Figure 6). Figure 5: RGBHV over CAT-5 Transmitter and Receiver Modules Figure 6: RGBHV over CAT-5 boards in an AF-10 Transmitter boards pass RGBHV signals from source devices over CAT-5 cable (allowing RGBHV to be sent over longer distances). Receiver boards accept RGBHV signals from CAT-5 cable and pass them on to destination devices. Modula Boards & Specifications A-1
RGBHV over CAT-5 Transmitters & Receivers A.1 Attaching Cables The cable for the RJ-45 connector can be either CAT-5, CAT-5e, or CAT-6 cable. Note: A system using Transmitter-to-Matrix-to-Receiver boards (AF-10 and Module) is illustrated on page 1-2. RGBHV over CAT-5 Trans. & Receivers To attach connectors: Insert the connectors (as shown on an AF-10 Transmitter board in Figure 7).
