3 Overview
The CDA-CV20 1:2 Component Video DA is a high quality 1:2 distributor
for component video (Y, Pb/Cb, Pr/Cr) signals that accepts one input and
distributes the signal to two identical outputs using RCA connectors. In
particular, the CDA-CV20:
Is HDTV compatible
Has a bandwidth of 500MHz
Is 12VDC fed
To achieve the best performance:
Connect only good quality connection cables, thus avoiding interference,
deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise-
levels (often associated with low quality cables)
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances and position your
machine away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.
Warning – Use only the input power wall adapter that is
provided with this unit.
Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall
before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

:
1. Connect a component video source (for example, a DVD player) to the Y,
P B /C B , and P R /C R INPUT RCA connectors.
2. Connect the two sets of OUTPUT (Y, P B /C B , and P R /C R ) RCA
connectors
2
to up to two component video acceptors (for example, a
display and a projector).
3. Connect the 12V DC power adapter (wall transformer) to the 12V DC
socket and connect the transformer to the mains electricity.
