1.0 INTRODUCTION
Thank you for purchasing this HDTV Cat 5 Extender from Audio Authority. The
SCP-11 system incorporates the signal paths necessary for premium audio and
video distribution over just one inexpensive, easy to install Cat 5e/6 cable. Each
Cat 5 transmitter is capable of distributing HDTV signals to one or two receivers
located up to 1,000 feet from the source. The Cat 5 receivers can be powered
from the transmitter through the Cat 5 cable in most applications*. 1180 Series
products are manufactured in the USA, in Audio Authority’s Lexington, KY factory.
The SCP-11 systems apply Audio Authority’s leading AGE (Active Gain
Equalization) technology to a single Cat 5 system suitable for transmitting 1080p
component video and digital coaxial audio up to 1,000 feet. Our Active Gain
Equalization technology allows adjustable compensation for any cable length up
to 1,000 feet from the source. The adjustment is made at the remote end so that
the installer can fine tune the results while viewing the results on the HDTV. Like
our commercial video distribution products, the SCP-11 provides reliable ground
isolation, preventing hum bars and other artifacts associated with ground loops.
Audio Authority offers an extensive line of audio and video switchers,
converters, distribution amps, and extenders available for purchase online at
www.audioauthority.com or through authorized dealers.
