NTSC/PAL INPUT

This port provides unbalanced composite and S-video input (using a 2-

position mini-terminal block connectors) or balanced video input (using a 6-

position mini-terminal block connector) for video signals.

Both sets of inputs support both NTSC and PAL formats. Balanced video

format is typically used when distributing video via CAT 5 (i.e., from a

Crestron CNX-PVID8x3 or 8x4). Unbalanced video is typically used when

distributing video via coaxial cable.

than these specified lengths use a distribution amplifier.
