Congratulations on your purchase of the 1x8 Component Audio DA. Your complete sat-
isfaction is very important to us.
Gefen’s line of HDTV switches, extenders, and splitters are designed to make yourA/V
equipment use more comfortable, more productive and less expensive.
Gefen’s 1x8 ComponentAudio DAis a distribution hub that sends the same video out-
put to two or more HDTV digital screens. It is a flexible solution that accommodates mul-
tiple displays. When two or more 1x8 Component Audio DAs are connected together,
they can be used to create a larger distribution.
The 1x8 Component Audio DA is connected using a Component video and audio cable
from the HDTV source to the 1x8 Component Audio DA input. There are eight Compo-
nent video and audio outputs. Digital and/or analog audio can be distributed using this
device.
The ex•tend•it line offers solutions for noise, space and security concerns, data center
control, information distribution, conference room presentation, school and corporate
training environments.
Our Commitment
Gefen will always offer the finest quality product at the best possible price. Included in
that price is a lifetime of support from a team of outstanding engineers.
