Abstract
A repeater device that is placed between a transmission device connected to a server device and a reception device connected to a console device that controls the server device. The repeater device repeats a signal between the transmission device and the reception device, and includes an equalizer amplifier that amplifies a signal that is received from the transmission device or another repeater device.
Claims5
A repeater device that is placed between a transmission device connected to a server device and a reception device connected to a console device that controls the server device, the repeater device repeating a signal between the transmission device and the reception device, the repeater device comprising:
- an equalizer amplifier that amplifies a signal that is received from the transmission device or another repeater device;
- and
- a separating unit that separates a direct current from a video signal that is output from the server device such that one or more capacitors prevent the direct current from flowing into the equalizer amplifier and that one or more coils prevent the video signal from flowing to an output terminal for outputting a predetermined voltage, the direct current being received through a cable used for transmitting the video signal.
A repeater system that is placed between a transmission device connected to a server device and a reception device connected to a console device that controls the server device, the repeater system repeating a signal between the transmission device and the reception device,
- the repeater system comprising:
- a second repeater device that includes an equalizer amplifier that amplifies a signal received from the transmission device or another device, and a separating unit that separates a direct current from a video signal that is output from the server device, the direct current being received through a cable used for transmitting the video signal;
- and
- a first repeater device that includes an equalizer amplifier that amplifies a signal received from the second repeater device, a skew adjusting unit that adjusts a skew of the video signal transmitted through a plurality of cables, and a power supply unit that supplies the direct current to the second repeater device with the use of the cable used for transmitting the video signal, upon receipt of a power supply from a power source device.
A repeater device that is placed between a transmission device connected to a server device and a reception device connected to a console device that controls the server device, the repeater device repeating a signal between the transmission device and the reception device, the repeater device comprising:
- an equalizer amplifier that amplifies a signal that is received from another repeater device connected to the transmission device;
- a skew adjusting unit that adjusts a skew of the video signal;
- and
- a power supply unit that supplies a direct current to the another repeater device with the use of the cable used for transmitting a video signal from the transmission device to the reception device via the another repeater, upon receipt of a power supply from a power source device.
A repeater system that is placed between a transmission device connected to a server device and a reception device connected to a console device that controls the server device, the repeater device repeating a signal between the transmission device and the reception device, the repeater system comprising:
- a second repeater device that includes an equalizer amplifier that amplifies a signal received from the transmission device or another device, and a separating unit that separates a direct current from a video signal that is output from the server device, the direct current being received through a cable used for transmitting the video signal;
- and
- a first repeater device that includes an equalizer amplifier that amplifies a signal received from the second repeater device, and a power supply unit that supplies the direct current to the second repeater device with the use of the cable used for transmitting the video signal, upon receipt of a power supply from a power source device.
