A typical distribution-amplifier lifesaver installation:

key features

extended life - significantly extend the life of expensive displays by automatically switching them off when not needed.
RS-232 control - commands from a PC or RS-232 AV controller are relayed through UTP cable alongside SXGA video & stereo audio
independent control - any display can be addressed and controlled individually - even through a distribution amplifier
pin-sharp - sharp edges and a notable absence of 'smearing' artefacts to 1600 x 1200 pixels
long distance - 220 metres of cable at 1280 x 1024 pixels - with high fidelity video and audio
line-powered - receive units can be line-powered
digital stereo audio - 24-bit stereo digital audio transmission is offered as standard with lifesaver variants (analogue in, analogue out)

19" rack-mounted distribution amplifier (DA) products can also support lifesaver technology as well as point-point links. All screens are individually addressable - even with DA's. Repeater DA's can carry lifesaver data but individual addressability is lost
