READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING
OR OPERATING THE CAT5•5500 SYSTEM
* Industry standard Category-5 (CAT-5) cables are used to operate CAT5•5500 system.
Linking the CAT5•5500 sender and receiver units together requires one CAT-5 cable to
extend the first monitor. A second CAT-5 cable is required to extend the second monitor
signal and a third CAT-5 cable is required to extend USB and audio.
* When monitors are used in the local and remote locations, the video monitors must be
able to use the same resolution. This pertains to monitors placed remotely, and those di-
vided between local and remote locations. The video monitors will not initialize correctly
at start-up if they are unable to sync the same resolution of the local monitors.
* The CAT5•5500 units are housed in a metal box for better RF shielding.
OPERATION NOTES
INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing the new ex•tend•it CAT5•5500 series by Gefen, Inc.
The ex•tend•it CAT5•5500 by Gefen allows users the benefits of extending USB, audio,
and video signals beyond the desktop. In a growing number of applications, broadcast
stations and production facilities there is a need to control a computer remotely. The
keyboard, mouse, and video monitor are relocated to the remote side. A CPU may need
to be shared between several users or moved to another room because of annoying fan
noise.
The CAT5•5500 series can be used to extend computers with noisy fans, printers, hard
drives, scanners, cameras, keyboards, mouse, and any other USB-type peripherals.
The CAT5•5500 has the potential to cover the distance of 330 feet over industry
standard Category 5 (CAT-5) cables. One can connect additional CAT5•5500 series to
the same computer, allowing access to the same computer from other locations up to
330 feet apart.

HOW IT WORKS
In its most basic application, the CAT5•5500S sender unit resides next to the computer.
Supplied with the system, VGA, audio, and USB cables, they connect the computer to the
CAT5•5500S sender unit.
The CAT5•5500R receiver unit is placed next to the monitors and USB peripherals at the
remote location. The monitors and USB peripherals are connected to the CAT5•5500R,
similar to the way they are connected to the back of the computer (PC or Macintosh).
Industry standard Category 5 (CAT-5) cables are used to link CAT5•5500S sender
and CAT5•5500R receiver units together. The CAT5•5500 model requires one CAT-
5 cable to extend the first monitor. A second CAT-5 cable is required to extend the
second monitor signal and a third CAT-5 cable is required to extend USB and audio.
