Introduction

Thank you for purchasing a StarTech.com Converge A/V Mini VGA over Cat5 UTP Extender and

Receiver. Providing a high resolution point to point digital signage solution, the extender sends

the video signal to a remote monitor / display or projector over standard 4 pair CAT5e UTP cable,

using RJ45 connectors and supports transmission distances of up to 90m (275ft).

The ST121UTPMINI is an out-of-box solution that includes both the local transmitter and remote

receiver. The receiver is compact enough to be tucked away behind the display in tight spaces

for any installation.

Installation

Transmitter Unit

1. Attach the Transmitter unit to the VGA source’s VGA output connector.

2. If using audio, connect the 3.5mm audio cable to the audio output connector.

3. To power the Transmitter unit, connect the integrated USB cable to an available USB port on

the video source device.

4. To test the VGA signal to the Transmitter unit, turn on the VGA source and observe the LED

indicators. The Video Sync LED should light up solid, if a good video signal is detected.

Receiver Unit

1. Attach the Receiver unit to the display’s VGA input connector.

NOTE: If the display has a VGA input that makes directly attaching the Receiver unit

dicult, use an appropriate length VGA extension cable

(i.e. StarTech.com ID: MXT101HQ3).

2. If using audio, connect the 3.5mm audio cable to the display’s audio input, or separate audio

receiver/speaker system.

3. To power the Receiver unit, connect the included DC power adapter.

4. The Video Sync LED should start blinking, as no video source is connected to the Receiver

unit yet.

UTP Cat5 Cable

1. Ensure that the Cat5 UTP cable being used has 568B terminations at both ends and does not

exceed the maximum recommended length of 180 metres (590 feet).

hubs, etc.

3. Attach one end of the Cat5 cable to the transmitter of the St121UTPMINI and the other end

to the receiver. The RJ45 Link LED on both units should light up to indicate the connection

is detected.

4. Use the equalizer dial on the receiver to adjust the signal to the display.
