Gefen’s line of Home Theater switchers, extenders, and Distribution Amplifiers are de-
signed to make your A/V setup more comfortable, more productive and more affordable.
The 1x8 Component CAT5 DA allows one Component source to be distributed on up
to eight displays. The 1x8 Component CAT5 DA also extends Component signals over
330 feet using industry standard Category 5 (CAT-5) Cable. All output displays will have
mirrored images.

Our Commitment
Gefen will always offer the finest quality product at the best possible price. Included in

How it Works
Simply connect your Component video source to the 1x8 Component CAT5 Distribu-
tion Amplifier’s input using the supplied VGA to Component cable. Then connect up to
eight Component displays to the Component CAT5 receivers over 330 feet using CAT-5
Cable. Then power the 1x8 Component CAT5 Distribution Amplifier and the receivers
will get power from the CAT5. Note: Component output 1 is the primary connection and
is used for the main display. Component output 2 through 8 follow the main display. The
Component displays attached to the 1x8 Component CAT5 Distribution Amplifier MUST
have the same native resolution in order to get a picture.

HOW TO ADJUST THE PICTURE
7
The first step in adjusting the video quality is to display text and a graphic on your monitor
(i.e. desktop icons). Then set your computer to the resolution that you will be using most
frequently. The dip switches are used to set the focus and sharpness of the picture to the
best possible setting. Set the dip switches to the settings that are recommended for the
different lengths of CAT5 cable (see chart below). Verify that the picture quality is to your
satisfaction. If the recommended setting does not produce a great quality picture, try using
a different dip switch setting. The trim pod next to the Component connector on the 1x8
Component CAT5 DA R allows brightness adjustments for video.
0-25 Feet All dip switches OFF for all colors.
26-100 Feet Set dip switch #1 ON all colors. 2,3,4 remain OFF.
101-200 Feet Set dip switch #2 ON all colors. 1,3,4 remain OFF.
201-300 Feet Set dip switch #3 ON all colors. 1,2,4 remain OFF.
301 Feet and Up Set dip switch #4 ON all colors. 1,2,3 remain OFF.
NOTE: The dip switches are set to the OFF position when the switch is closest to the
number or in the down position.
