RADIO FREQUENCY INTERFERENCE STATEMENTS
This equipment generates, uses, and can radiate radio frequency energy
and if not installed and used properly, that is, in strict accordance with
the manufacturer’s instructions, may cause interference to radio
communication. It has been designed and found to comply with the
limits for a Class A computing device in accordance with the
specifications in Subpart B of Part 15 of FCC rules, which are intended
to provide reasonable protection against such interference when the
equipment is operated in a commercial environment. Operation of this
equipment in a residential area is likely to cause interference, in which
case the user at their own expense will be required to take whatever
measures may be necessary to correct the interference.
This digital apparatus does not exceed the Class A limits for radio
noise emission from digital apparatus set out in the Radio Interference
Regulation of the Canadian Department of Communications.

1. Introduction
1.1 General
This User’s Manual covers several models of Mini-Cat®Senders. The
senders can be any of the following models: UV1-S-16X or UVA-16X.
For these units, the number after the dash represents the quantity of
RJ45 outputs.
The transmission system is comprised of one Rack-Mount Sender unit
and one or more Receiver units (Sold Separately). There are 2
variations of the basic sender which can transmit Video along with
either Phantom Power (UV1-S-16X) or Video along with Line-Level
Audio (UVA-16X).
The senders convert the video inputs and either power or audio signals
into a format that can be transmitted using a single inexpensive and
commonly available Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable with RJ45
connectors. Both UTP and STP (shielded) cables can be used. In
addition you can use Cat5, 5e, 6, or higher. However, for runs of over
250 feet, Hall Research recommends using “Skew-free” or “Zero-
skew” Cat5 cables for best performance.
At the receiving (remote) end, a compatible receiver (sold separately)
is used to convert the UTP signal back to VGA and either power, audio
or RS232.
The product is housed in a 2 RU, 19” Rack mount enclosure and has
connectors for up to 16 video inputs and Audio depending on the
model, as well as multiple RJ45 output connectors for connection to the
remote systems.
The RJ45 outputs on the Sender can drive CAT5 LAN cables to 1000
feet (305 meters) with little to no degradation of video quality (500 feet
on some models) depending on resolution of the VGA signal (see table
3.2). The receiver can compensate for video signal losses in long cable
runs.

1.2 Features
•Distribute 16 video sources in one easy to use rack mount unit
to remote locations
•EDID supplied for each video source. Custom programming
compatible.
•Supports resolutions up to 1920x1440 at 60Hz, and HD
resolutions up to 1080p
•Amplifies the signal for clean and crisp transmission using
Hall Research’s proven technology
•Drives standard CAT5 cables up to 1000 feet (500 feet on
some models)
•Transmit video and either Power or Audio signals on one
cable
•Built-In Universal Power Supply
•Model UV1-S-16X provides Phantom Power for Receivers up
to 500 feet away so the receivers don’t need a power
connection
•2RU, 19” Rack Mount Enclosure
•Perfect for Matrix Racks and Digital Signage

2. Installation
1. Connect the video source to the PC/HDTV connectors. For Model
UVA-16X, connect the audio source to the AUDIO connectors.
2. Connect the included power cord to the power input connector on
the unit.
3. Using Category-5 or higher UTP cable, connect one or more
compatible receivers to the sender’s RJ45 outputs.
4. Connect the remote display/projector and possibly the speakers to
the receiver unit.
If using the Model UV1-S-16X, the receivers can be powered from
the CAT5 cabling if desired and the cables are less than 500 feet
from the sending unit.
CAUTION
Before plugging in the remote monitor, verify that the AC line is properly
wired and that a protective ground (green) wire is established with NO
potential difference between both the sender and receiver locations. The
splitter can tolerate up to 5 v peak-to-peak ground potential between the
two locations. Failure to ensure good grounding can result in erratic
operation and possible shock hazards or damage to your equipment.
NOTICE
Do not connect this unit to any LAN device such as network cards or hubs
as this may damage the UVA/URA and/or the LAN device. Use EIA/TIA 568B
standard straight-through patch wiring as shown below. Do not use
crossover cables.

3. Configuration & Operation
3.1 Sender
At the sending end the video signal from the source is fully terminated.
On the UVA-16X, the transmitted audio in the CAT5 cable to the
remote receiver is monaural. The audio output on the receiver is “line-
level” (powered speakers are required).
3.2 Receivers
Several receiver types are available that are compatible with this family
of products (See table for compatible receivers). All Receivers have a
single COMPENSATION potentiometer (pot) adjustment to recover
high frequency signal loss for long runs of the cable.
Model # Compatible Receivers
UV1-S-16X *UV1-R
UV1-R-WP (Wall Plate)
UVB1-CP-R
UVA-16X UV232A-R*, URA, URA-SKU, URA-XT
* - No RS232
* IMPORTANT
The UV1-S-16X sends 9 vDC via the CAT5 cable and is only
compatible with the UV1-R, UV1-R-WP and UVB1-CP-R.
Other types of receivers (Such as a URA) can sustain damage if
connected to the UV1-S-16X

3.2.1 Adjusting the video quality for long cable runs
The video quality at the remote station depends on: (1) the length of the
CAT5 cable, (2) video resolution setting, (3) refresh rate setting and the
model of the receiver.
In general, at low and mid resolutions, excellent image reproduction is
provided at up to 1000 feet for UVA-16X model (500 feet for model
UV1-S-16X). At high resolution and refresh rates perfect image
reproduction can be achieved at shorter distances (see table below).
Using longer cables or higher resolution rates will still produce an
image, but the reproduction quality will be reduced.
