1-2. GENERAL INFORMATION
The SMART BOOSTER
™
is a Multi-Way 4 x {1 Input to a 3 way Output} Distribution Amplifier for RGB HV,
RGB/S, RGsB, YUV, Computer, Video & HDTV signals.
Each of the 4 Inputs can be split into 3 separately buffered and amplified Outputs. It is the equivalent of integrating in
the same enclosure, 4 different Distribution Amplifiers of 1 to 3 Outputs each.
The SMART BOOSTER
™
splits and boosts any Computer, HDTV and TV sources such as PC, MAC , Laptop, any
Workstation, Line Doubler, Scaler, Video Presenter, Video & Industrial Camera, VCR, DVD, Laser Disc ….
