2.1 Overview
The CAT5 Audio/Video Splitter simultaneously broadcasts audio and video signals
over Category 5 twisted-pair cable to as many as four remote monitors and speakers
up to 360 ft. (110 m) away. It consists of a Hub that you’ll connect to your PC or
other video- and audio-source device(s), plus up to four Remotes that you’ll place
near your monitors, speakers, or other video- and audio-destination device(s).
There are four Hub models. The AC150A-2 and AC150AE-2 have two RJ-45 jacks
and can send audio and video to two Remotes. The AC150A-4 and AC150AE-4
have four RJ-45 jacks and can send audio and video to as many as four Remotes.
There are two Remote models, AC150A-REM and AC150AE-REM. The Hub and
Remote models with the “A” infix in their product codes use 110-VAC power; the
models with the “AE” infix use 220-VAC power.
