Quick Installation Guide
Overview
The Quad Audio Balun allows up to four (4) analog line audio signals to be transmitted
via an unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable in a point-to-point connection. Used in pairs,
the Quad Audio Balun eliminates up to four (4) coaxial cables, allowing audio-video
equipment to be connected via a space-efficient and cost-effective Category 5E/6
twisted pair cable and supports Hi-Fi audio signal transmission. The Quad Audio Balun
also works in conjunction with other MuxLab analog audio baluns such as the 500019.
