Hub or broadband router
Network connections via DIGITAL LINK terminal
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.
Installing / Connectinggg
  Ask the dealer or a quali ed technician to carry out the cable wiring work for DIGITAL LINK connections. 
Insuf cient wiring work may cause the inability to apply the cable transmission characteristics and cropped 
or fuzz
y images and sounds.
  The transmission distance between the twisted pair cable transmitter and the device is up to 100 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 Display.
 
When connecting to the Display using the twisted pair cable transmitter (receiver) of other maker, do not 
use another twisted 
pair cable transmitter between the twisted pair cable transmitter of other maker and 
this device. The images and sounds may be interrupted or become unstable
.
  If possible, lay the cable so that it is 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 suppl
y cable.
When laying multiple cables, keep them as close together as possible running parallelly and not bundled.
 After laying the cable(s), make sure that the signal quality in “DIGITAL LINK status” is -12 dB or below.
Twisted pair cablesp
  Use a LAN cable between the twisted pair cable transmitter and the device that conforms to the following 
conditions.
   It meets or exceeds CAT5e standards   It is a shielded cable (with a connector)When laying the cable(s), use an instrument such as a cable tester or cable analyzer 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 forcefully bending or folding them.
