About the PA 300
The PA 300 is an ultra high performance RGB peaking amplifier
capable of driving a 1600 x 1200 resolution computer signal
over 600 feet (185 m) using Extron Mini HR cables, or 1000 feet
(300 m) using Extron RG6 cable. The PA 300 is compatible with
both RGB and HDTV component signals.
The PA 300 has one gain potentiometer and two peaking
potentiometers on the front panel. On the rear panel, the
PA 300 provides five BNCs for RGBHV input and five BNCs for
RGBHV output. The unit restores the sync signals, but does not
process them for format, polarity, or delay.
The PA 300 is housed in a 1U, half rack, 6" (15.2 cm) deep,
2-piece enclosure, and uses an internal power supply.
