Introduction  
The Extron MDA 5 Series of Mini Distribution Amplifiers (MDAs)  
3.  
Install blank panel(s) or other unit(s) to the rack shelf.  
are a family of three video and audio distribution amplifiers. The  
MDA are members of the Extron VersaTools™ line of basic  
distribution amplifiers, switchers, and associated video  
accessories.  
4.  
Insert the shelf into the rack, aligning the holes in the shelf  
with those of the rack.  
5.  
Secure the shelf to the rack using the supplied machine  
screws. This shelf can be mounted in the front or in the rear  
of the rack.  
The MDA 5V distributes buffered composite video, the MDA 5SV  
distributes buffered S-video (luminance (Y) and chrominance  
(C)), and the MDA 5A RCA distributes amplified stereo audio, on  
RCA outputs.  
Only products in the VersaTools line can be mounted to a  
VersaTools shelf. Any 1U rack-mountable Extron product  
can be mounted on the standard shelf.  
The MDAs ship with external, desktop 12V power supplies,  
which accept 100-240VAC input.  
Installation

The MDA 5V, 5SV, and 5A RCA can be mounted on a rack shelf,  
under a desk or tabletop, or on a projector bracket.

Rack mounting  
For optional rack mounting, mount the MDA on a VersaTools 19"  
1U Rack Shelf (Extron part #60-190-20) (figure 1) or a standard  
Universal 1U Rack Shelf (Extron part #60-190-01) (figure 2). On  
the standard rack shelf, the MDA mounts in one of four locations  
to the rear of the rack or in one of four locations to the front of the  
rack.

If feet were previously installed on the bottom of the MDA,  
remove them.  
2.  
Mount the MDA on the rack shelf, using two 4-40 x 3/16  
screws in opposite (diagonal) corners to secure the MDA to  
the shelf.

installing the captive screw connector. Tinned wires are  
not as secure in the captive screw connectors and could  
pull out.  
For furniture mounting, insert #8 wood screws into the four  
pilot holes. Tighten each screw into the mounting surface  
until just less than 1/4” of the screw head protrudes.  
The two power cord wires must be kept separate  
while the power supply is plugged in. Remove  
power before continuing.  
For furniture mounting, align the mounting screws with  
the slots in the brackets and place the MDA against the  
surface, with the screws through the bracket slots.  
To verify the polarity before connection, plug in the power  
supply with no load and check the output with a voltmeter.  
For furniture mounting, slide the receiver slightly forward  
or back, then tighten all four screws to secure the MDA in  
place.

For projector mounting, secure the MDA to a projector  
mount or other surface by inserting the mounting bolt  
through the bracket’s slotted hole.

When connecting the power supply, voltage polarity  
is extremely important. Applying power with  
incorrect voltage polarity could damage the power  
supply and the MDA. Identify the power cord
