■ DIGITAL LINK Terminal connection A twisted pair cable transmitter, such as the Panasonic Digital Interface Box (ET-YFB100G), uses twisted pair cables to transmit inputted video and audio signals, and these digital signals can be input to the Display via the DIGITAL LINK terminal. Back of the Display COMPUTER LAN Terminal LAN cable (not supplied) Example: Panasonic ET-YFB100G Hub or broadband router Note ● When using a DIGITAL LINK connection, set each item in [Network settings]. (see page 53) ● The Panasonic Digital Interface Box (ET-YFB100G) does not correspond to 4K signal. Precautions for use while connecting with a twisted pair cable transmitter About installation / connection ● Ask the dealer or a qualified technician to carry out the cable wiring work for DIGITAL LINK connections. Insufficient wiring work may cause the inability to apply the cable transmission characteristics and cropped or fuzzy images and sounds. ● The transmission distance between the twisted pair cable transmitter and the device is up to 100 meters. When transmitting 4K signal, the maximum is 50 meters. Exceeding this distance can cause cropped images or sounds, as well as LAN communication errors. ● Do not use a hub between the twisted pair cable transmitter and the device. ● When connecting the Display using the twisted pair cable transmitter (receiver) of other manufacturer, do not use another twisted pair cable transmitter between the twisted pair cable transmitter of other manufacturer and this device. The images and sounds may be interrupted or become unstable. ● If possible, lay the cable extended and not coiled in order to minimize both external and internal noise. ● Lay out cables of the twist pair cable transmitter and this product away from other cables, especially from the power supply cable. ● When laying multiple cables, keep them together as close as possible running parallelly and not bundled. ● After laying the cable(s), check that the signal quality in [DIGITAL LINK status] is -12 dB or below. About Twisted pair cables ● Between the twisted pair cable transmitter and the device, use a LAN cable that conforms to the following conditions. • It meets or exceeds CAT5e standards • It is a straight cable • It is a shielded cable (with a connector) • It is a solid cable ● When laying the cable(s), use an instrument such as a cable tester or cable analyser and check whether the cable characteristics are CAT5e or above. When using a relay connector along the path, also include this in the measurements. ● Do not pull cables hard. Also, avoid bending or folding them forcefully. Other ● This device is compatible with our Digital Interface Box (ET-YFB100G).
