The B140-004 4-port DVI over Cat5 Extender/Splitter Transmitter splits and extends a single-link DVI-D signal to four monitors or projectors up to 200 ft. away over efficient Cat5e/6 cabling. Together with remote receivers (sold separately), it creates an ideal solution for digital signage applications ranging from retail displays to tradeshow presentations. The B140-004 transmitter allows the DVI source to be secure and hidden while delivering a high-resolution signal to distant monitors. The included mounting hardware provides a variety of installation options, and plug-and-play setup makes installation quick and easy. For peace of mind, the transmitter comes with a one-year warranty, is TAA-compliant for GSA Schedule purchase, and is designed according to strict RoHS standards.
When used with active receivers (Tripp Lite model B140-1A0 or B140-1A0-WP, sold separately), the B140-004 transmitter can extend a 1024 x 768 (60Hz) DVI signal up to 200 ft. or a 1920 x 1080 (60Hz) DVI signal up to 150 ft. When used with passive receivers (Tripp Lite model B140-1P0 or B140-1P0-WP-1, sold separately), the transmitter can extend a 1024 x 768 (60Hz) DVI signal up to 100 ft. or a 1920 x 1080 (60Hz) DVI signal up to 50 ft. It also has a DVI output for connecting a local monitor and/or daisy-chaining up to 3 transmitters together, which allows the DVI signal to be sent to as many as 12 remote monitors + 1 local monitor. For even longer distances and more remote monitors, you can add remote signal repeaters (Tripp Lite model B140-110, sold separately) to the installation.
With no software or drivers to install, the B140-004 transmitter’s plug-and-play setup gets your digital signage up and running quickly. Simply connect the transmitter to the video source and remote receivers, connect the receivers to the displays, and watch as the B140-004 transmitter provides crystal clear resolution. The B140-004 transmitter is compatible with all single-link DVI-D video sources and all computer operating systems.
Cost-Effective Cabling
The B140-004 transmitter and receivers connect to each other with Cat5e/6 cabling, which makes installation even more convenient. Cat5e/6 cabling is readily available and cost-effective, especially if you need to use plenum-rated cabling to meet fire codes for cable runs inside walls or ceilings. For maximum signal integrity, resolution, and distance, Tripp Lite recommends using solid-conductor Cat5e/6 cabling, such as Tripp Lite’s N202-series.
The B140-004 transmitter includes versatile mounting hardware that allows it to be installed in any venue. Installation options include mounting to a standard 19-inch equipment rack, wall, or pole. The B140-004 also includes a local DVI port for convenient monitoring of the DVI source at its origin.
