ADA 6 Component

The Extron ADA 6 Component is a component/HDTV (high-
definition television) distribution amplifier. It is designed for use
when one component/HDTV video signal must be sent to up to
six output devices (11 with looping) without loss of signal quality.
Features
• Accepts and outputs component video.
• High bandwidth provides signal distribution with no loss of
picture quality.
• Looping allows two amplifiers to be connected to provide up to
11 outputs.
Installation
To install the ADA 6 Component, do the following:
1. Remove power cords from the amplifier and all input and
output devices.
2. If you are rack mounting the amplifier, attach it to a rack
front panel (Extron part number 60-126-01) or rack shelf
(Extron part number 60-030-01), and then mount the
assembly in the rack.
3. Connect the input BNC connectors to the signal source, such
as a high-definition television (HDTV). There are three
connectors: R-Y, B-Y, and Y.
4. If you are looping amplifiers, choose the unit that will be #1,
and connect one set of its outputs to the input on
amplifier #2.
5. Connect each output to the R-Y, B-Y, and Y connectors on its
destination, such as a monitor or large screen projector.
6. Attach a BNC 75-ohm termination plug to each unused
output connector.
7. Reattach power cords, and apply power to the amplifier and
to all input and output devices.
Operation
The figure below shows the amplifier’s front and rear panels.

Power LEDs — Light to indicate that the amplifier is on.
2
AC/DC Coupling switches (3) — Normally, set to AC (up).
If the application requires DC coupling, set to DC (down).
