QGE 100 • Setup Guide
The QGE 100 Quantum Graphics Encoder encodes an RGB or DVI signal from a source computer or similar graphical device
and streams it to a Quantum
®
Elite Videowall Processor, computer, or other viewing device over an IP network. The viewing
device can then decode the image data and reproduce the original source image, displaying it at its original or scaled
resolution. The QGE is connected between a source computer and its monitor, keyboard, and mouse without affecting the
performance of the computer. From these connections it obtains data about changes in the display content, along with
keyboard and mouse actions.
NOTE:
For full installation, configuration, and operation details, see the
QGE 100 User Guide
