MegaQ™
1 Mile (1600M) Adaptive Composite Video Equalizer
Intersil's MegaQ™ devices are the industry's most innovative and versatile single channel, adaptive equalizers for delivering composite video through cables.
MegaQ ICs are designed to automatically equalize video over popular and inexpensive Cat 5 cable as well as the more traditional coaxial cable. The MegaQ devices deliver outstanding composite video images at distances over five times those currently possible, with a maximum length of 1 mile or 1.6 kilometers.
The MegaQ family requires no user interaction or adjustments to get the best performance, so video quality is no longer dependent on the installer.
