3. Installation
3.1 Locations
Please consider the following important points when planning the positions of your Wizard Multimedia Extender LP modules:
• Take care not to exceed the maximum link cable lengths of 492 feet (150m) per link.
• Ensure that the local module(s) is/are as close as possible to the source PC system and the remote modules are similarly close
to the video displays. Each remote module can be connected directly to the video display and no power is required.
• Wherever possible, choose routes for the CATx twisted pair link cables that avoid mains power cables.
• Remember a mains power socket is required for each local module. The remote modules do not require external power.
• Consult the precautions listed within the Safety information section.
3.2 Mounting the modules – desk or rack
The Wizard Multimedia Extender LP modules can be situated on a desk or alternatively, for larger installations, mounted within an
optional rack mount chassis.
