   This is what lurks under the Eldrich horror of cabling. A pair of fairly boring grey boxes with a pretty nice front panel.
   They talk to each other over a standard RJ45 straight cable strung between the RS485 ports, and the video is chained with a normal DVI-I monitor cable.

   Aside from broadcasting, these were also popular for shop CCTV systems - those would have had a composite output, connected to a VCR. These days you'd use a digital video recorder.
