AUD-EXT-100 Audio over CAT5 Extender for One Unbalanced Stereo Signal

• The AUD?EXT?100 is an audio extender designed for transporting unbalanced (RCA) analog audio signals over several hundred feet using CAT5 (or greater) UTP cable.
• Crestron Audio-over-CAT5 extenders are ideal for use with a Sonnex® Multiroom Audio System to provide one or more audio return channels. An audio return channel allows an audio source located in any room of the house to be routed to any other room through the central audio distribution system.
• Each AUD?EXT transmitter and receiver is designed for mounting to a flat surface or to a single rack rail in the back of an equipment rack. Three units can also fit neatly side-by-side on a standard 1U 19 in. rack shelf. AUD?EXT devices are completely passive, eliminating any extra cables or power supplies. Connecting a transmitter to its companion receiver requires just a single CAT5 (or greater) UTP cable
