The Audio Authority SixDrive HDTV Distribution System is a 1 x 6 distribution system that delivers audio and HD video signals over Cat5e, plus an IR pathway
for easy remote control of AV components. All this over inexpensive, easy to install Cat 5 cables (two per outlet).
The Audio Authority SixDrive is rack mountable and expandable in increments of six outputs. It handles resolutions up to 1080p (FullHD). It is an upscaled version of the
1 x 2 Audio Authority 9870 HDTV distribution kit.
How it works
The Audio Authoirty SixDrive HDTV Distribution System consists of two key components:
- The Cat 5 Driver Hub (part 1171) takes the source feed from your equipment and converts it into the balanced signals that can be distributed over the Cat5
cables
- Six wall plates (part 9878) are each fed from the hub unit, by two runs of Cat5 cable, and provide the connection outlets from your remote equipment
To expand capacity just add more 1171 Driver Hubs, Cat5 cable and wall plates. Each wall plate fits onto a standard US style double gang back box or "P-ring". The Driver hubs
can be connected using high quality RCA phono cables.
InfraRed relay through the SixDrive requires a standard IR relay system working through the wallplate back to a connecting block at the hub end, eg
Xantech HiddenLink or Xantech MicroLink or similar.
