Main Features
High Quality Picture - No Signal Loss and Digital Noise Free
Our SC-DS1 is designed to deliver the highest quality picture preserving the native resolutions of the video sources without any signal loss. At the same time, the digital noises that may affect the picture quality will be eliminated. Due to the nature of the digital signals and passing through multiple stack of connection, it is important to eliminate the digital noises and boost the signal strength to preserve/enhance the video signal quality, which SC-DS1 does.
Signal Amplification for signal reliability and long length signal transmission.
SC-DS1 uses external DC 5V power to run an internal chipset, which was designed to transmit high quality visual signal to long distance.
Compact and Practical Design
The SC-DS1 is designed compactly and practically allowing customers more ease and convenience
Full HD without changing display
With previously used HDMI/DVI display user can enjoy full HD from new source device without quality degradation

Troubleshooting
The SC-DS1 Converter is designed for years of trouble free, please refer to the troubleshooting chart below if experiencing trouble with the device.
| Problem | Solution |
|---|---|
| No picture(or signal) | 1. If you are using copper based HDMI cable, overall length of the cables (length of the cable from video source to switch and length of the cable from switch to display) should not exceed 20ft. Exceeding 20ft. with copper based cables will result in no or poor picture quality. To extend beyond 20ft, please use fiber optical HDMI/DVI extension cables. 2. Use high quality HDMI cables. 3. If you are using computers, try other refresh rate settings. Most HDTV’s have refresh rate of 48Hz and computer’s video cards are usually set at higher refresh rate. Try lower refresh rates. 4. Make sure all HDMI connectors are tightly secured to all HDMI ports. Loose plugging on the HDMI connectors will result in no or poor picture. 5. Turn off all equipments (video source, switch and HDTV) and restart all equipments. |
| Converter not Operate | Make sure the 5V power is plugged on the back of the unit. Check to see if the power LED light is on. |
| Incorrectly sized picture / resolution or No picture | Reset the product by power off. |
