INTRODUCTION  
The Linear 1:8 Component with Audio Distribution Amplifier is the perfect solution  
for anyone who needs to send one source of high definition component video and  
analog or digital audio to multiple displays at the same time. It supports component  
equipment, such as DVD players, satellite set top boxes and component displays.  
In operation, the component video source is connected to the distribution amplifier  
at the input. Eight outputs are available to be used in part or in full. Once the unit  
is connected and powered, your source can be routed up to eight component high  
definition displays at the same time.  
How It Works  
Simply connect the source’s component and audio cables to the 1:8’s input. Then,  
connect up to eight component displays to the 1:8’s outputs. Power on the unit  
and watch up to full HD 1080p on eight displays without any signal loss or picture  
degradation. When two or more 1:8’s are connected together, you can create a large  
distribution system.
