1:5 Composite Video & s-Video with Stereo Audio Distribution Amplifier

VM-5YCXL

The VM-5YCxl is a unique dual-format 1:5 distribution amplifier for composite video and s-Video (Y/C) signals with unbalanced stereo audio. The unit is a truly flexible DA that can handle both composite and s-Video (Y/C) signals and includes built-in high-quality signal format conversion.

Features & Benefits

  • High Bandwidth - 300MHz (-3dB).
  • Dual Format - 1:5 composite video with stereo audio section & 1:5 s-Video (Y/C) with stereo audio.
  • Built-in Bidirectional Format Conversion - 1:10 DA (5 composite & 5 Y/C with stereo audio) for either the composite video or s-Video (Y/C) input.
  • Extra Converted Output Connectors - For each signal type, composite video and s-Video (Y/C), there is a dedicated format converted output.
  • Looping Input.
  • Input Signal Termination.
  • Video AC/DC Coupling Selection.
