Each 1U rack mountable MediaStar Compact Hub will provide a 16 Channel TV/AV service to 16 individual users/outlets. Up to four Hubs can be looped together to form a larger 64 user, 16 channel TV/AV system using the MediaStar Compact Interconnection Kit (Part 747/x). There are 16 independent front panel outlets, labeled A to P, which allow selection of any of the 16 video and stereo audio rear panel inputs that connect to local sources such as DVD players and satellite decoders.
The outlets are RJ45 sockets that allow interconnection with MediaStar Compact Receiver Units (Part 751) at distances of up to 400 meters (1,300ft) via Cat-5/UTP. MediaStar Compact Remote Control Units (Part 790/1x) provide infra red communication to the MediaStar Compact Receiver Units.
