The 1:2 Component Audio over CAT5 Receiver unit connects to your remote HDTV component video displays, and audio inputs. Note: Both analog and digital audio outputs are active on the receiver side when two-channel analog audio is used. If multi-channel digital audio is used, then the analog audio outputs will be inactive. 1 OPERATION NOTES READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR OPERATING THE 1:2 COMPONENT AUDIO OVER CAT5 • Use only industry standard Category-5 Enhanced (CAT-5e) cable to operate the 1:2 Component Audio Over CAT5. Cat-6 cables can also be used. • Unit will convert digital audio to analog audio and analog audio to digital audio. It will not however down-mix multichannel digital audio tracks to analog 2 channel. Please see page 8 for additional information. • Both the sending and receiving units must be powered with the supplied power adapters for proper operation. • Field termination of CAT5e cabling must adhere to the TIA/EIA-568-B specification. Please see page 10 for additional information. 2 FEATURES Features • Supports up to 1080p component video • Supports analog L+R audio and multichannel digital audio via optical Toslink or S/PDIF jacks • Simple plug-and-play installation • Equalizations for different CAT-5 skews • No loss of quality over long distances Package Includes (1) Component Audio Over CAT5 Sender (1) 1:2 Component Audio Over CAT5 Receiver (1) 6 Foot 5 RCA Component Video Cable (2) 5V DC Power Supply (1) User’s Manual 3 SENDER PANEL LAYOUT Front Panel 1 2 3456 Back Panel 7 4 SENDER PANEL DESCRIPTIONS 1 5V DC Power Input Connect the included 5V DC power supply input this port.

See page 10. 7 CONNECTING AND OPERATING THE 1:2 COMPONENT AUDIO OVER CAT5 How to Connect the 1:2 Component Audio Over CAT5 1. Connect the component video source to the Component Audio Over CAT5 sending unit using the supplied 3 RCA component cable. 2. Connect audio to the Component audio Over CAT5 sender unit using either user supplied audio cables or the included audio cables. Digital Audio: Use either the digital S/PDIF or optical inputs. Analog Audio: Use the 2 RCA analog stereo inputs. NOTE: Analog audio will be output on both the digital and analog audio connectors of the receiving unit. If the digital audio that is input into the sending unit is 2 channel PCM, audio will be output on both the digital and analog audio connectors. Multi-channel bit-stream digital audio will be output on the digital connectors only. 3. Connect up to 2 component displays to the 1:2 Component Audio Over CAT5 receiving unit using user supplied 3 RCA component cables. NOTE: Both outputs are mirrored images of the component video source. 4. Connect either the digital or analog audio outputs to the display or the receiver using user supplied audio cables. 5.
