- What's DIGITAL LINK?
- Example Systems
- Compatible Equipment
- Product Lineup
DIGITAL LINK technology adapts to a variety of system configurations for transmission of AV and control signals from source to display over very long distances. With the addition of Panasonic switchers or digital interface hubs—or any compatible third-party switching, splitting, and routing equipment—DIGITAL LINK is a cost-effective way to distribute content to multiple devices in your network with complete reliability.
Example Systems
Basic One-to-One Connection
DIGITAL LINK is a simple way to route digital signals to a single display over long distances. With the addition of an ET-YFB100G, multiple source devices can be connected to a central hub with outgoing signals transmitted through a single cable to the display device, saving on installation cost.
Installation Examples
Meeting rooms / Classrooms / Retail spaces
Digital Signal Distribution to Two Displays
The ET-YFB200G Switcher can route signals from a single source device to two display devices simultaneously. Full HD video can be transmitted for distances of up to 150 m (492 ft)*, making DIGITAL LINK technology ideal for large venues such as auditoriums.
Installation Examples
Auditoriums / Lecture rooms / Churches

For other DIGITAL LINK models: up to 100 m (328 ft).
Distribute to Multiple Display Devices
Where more than two display devices are integrated into the AV network, up to four ET-YFB200G Switchers can be daisy-chained (cascaded) to relay signals to up to eight projectors or displays. DIGITAL LINK simplifies installation of 360-degree panoramic projection systems and digital signage networks.
Installation Examples
Panoramic projection / Lecture halls / Large classrooms / Coliseums / Learning centers / Cafeterias
Daisy-chained 3 x 3 Video Walls
DIGITAL LINK is a key plank in Panasonic's simplified front-to-back video-wall solutions, which include a dedicated mounting system and multi-screen calibration with a compatible camera. Each panel can be daisy-chained via DIGITAL LINK, combining digital content and control commands in one cable.
Installation Examples
Retail signage / Airports / Sports arenas / Hotel lobbies
Works with Switchers for 4K Distribution
UltraHD video can be distributed via DIGITAL LINK to compatible displays—such as Panasonic SQ Series professional displays—with the addition of Crestron's 4K-compatible DMPS3-4K-150-C switching device, which can transmit 4K signals for up to 50 m (164 ft) via CAT 5e cable or above. It's now possible to create a spectacular 4K digital display system in locations where cable lengths previously prevented the distribution of 4K content, such as in large casinos, corporate boardrooms, or for retail signage networks.
Installation Examples
Airports / Corporate boardrooms / Casinos / Retail signage
