HDTV Audio/Video Over Cat5 - Distribution Hub

Audio/video baluns provide an economical alternative to coaxial cables for long length audio/video installations. Baluns are able to maintain a critical 75 Ohm Impedance to audio/video devices while providing 100 Ohm Impedance to the cabling infrastructure. This balanced impedance allows the audio/video signals to travel with little to no degradation up to 300ft over more affordable unshielded twisted pair Cat5 cabling (Up to 500ft over Cat6). This audio/video hub is able to distribute Component Video, Digital Audio, Left/Right Audio and IR Emitter transmission over two common Cat5 cables. It features RCA jacks for audio, Component Video, and S/PDIF connections and 3.5mm jacks for IR Emitter connections. Dual output ports enable the audio/video signals to be delivered to two separate displays. Loop-thru jacks support additional hubs for larger installations. At least one receiver unit (sold separately - #41168) is required on the display end to complete the installation. Features: Active Amplification ensures high quality transmission. Discrete Passive IR Channel for the use of external IR remote control systems. Loop output for use of additional CAT5 transmitters. Two Cat5 outputs for additional location.
