High Definition Video
Throughout Your Home
At The Touch of a Button!
High Quality Video–in Every Room.
Bold, brilliant colors. Crystal-clear pictures. Wide-screen imagery.
The V883 was designed to meet all the rigid standards of hi-def
video distribution.
View up to 8 component video sources – DVD, Satellite, DVR, and
more – independently, on 8 different high definition TVs or monitors
in 8 different rooms.
V883
Quality In – Quality Out
With 8 sets of component video inputs
and outputs, the V883 allows you to view
all your component video sources
independently on up to 8 different high
definition TVs and/or monitors in as many
rooms. And with its unity gain design and
high definition chip set, whatever you pipe
into the V883 is exactly what you’ll see at
the other end – quality. The V883 also
distributes standard composite video from
non-component sources such as CCTV
cameras and VCRs.
Go the Distance
The V883 can use standard RG-6 coaxial
cable to send component video signals to
TVs or monitors up to 300 feet away.
With the addition of an ELAN Component
Video Wall Plate (CVWP), component
video can be sent up to 500 feet over Cat-5
data/communication cable. Either way, the
V883’s zero-loss design means the best
possible picture even over long distances.
Adaptable
The V883 is both RS-232 and IR-
controllable, so it can integrate seamlessly
with any multi-room system. In an ELAN
system, all of the V883’s control commands
reside in ELAN’s system setup software and
can be automatically built into the system’s
programming, making it a breeze to
configure even complex component video
switching routines.
Expandable
Have more than 8 TVs? Expansion ports on
the back of the V883 make it easy to meet
your needs. Add a second, third or fourth
Component Video Controller, and view all 8
of your component video sources on up to
32 televisions and/or monitors.
Affordable
ELAN’s award-winning innovation and vast
experience in multi-room audio/video
distribution has enabled the Company to
manufacture a component video switcher that
distributes the highest quality video – from
more sources – to more TVs/monitors – over
longer distances – than similar components
costing two, three or even four times as
much. Experience the unique power of V883.
