Do I need to buy a separate transmitter to use this receiver?

Yes, this is a receiver unit only and requires a separate B140-002 or B140-004 transmitter; you will need to purchase the matching transmitter to complete the DVI extension system.

What are the advantages of an active receiver over passive models?

Active receivers regenerate the DVI signal, allowing 200-foot extension distances while maintaining video quality; passive receivers are limited to shorter distances and perform better over shorter runs.

Can I use this receiver with existing Cat5/Cat6 infrastructure in my building?

Yes, the B140-1A0 uses standard Cat5/Cat6 connections, so you can leverage existing cabling runs if they are not in use for other purposes.

Is this receiver suitable for extending video from a server room to a remote control room?

Yes, the 200-foot active extension makes it ideal for centralized server rooms or equipment closets sending video to distributed display locations across large facilities.

What equipment is needed on the transmitter end to use this receiver?

You will need a B140-002 or B140-004 transmitter unit connected to your DVI video source; the transmitter and receiver work together to extend the signal over Cat5/Cat6 cabling.

Can I use this receiver to extend video from digital cameras or video capture devices?

The B140-1A0 extends DVI signals from any source with a DVI output, including video capture cards, professional cameras, and broadcast equipment with DVI connectivity.
