The Intelix AVO-A4-WP wallplate balun transmits four mono or two stereo analog
audio signals via standard structured cabling, such as Cat 5. Used in pairs or with
the Intelix AVO-A4 rack-mountable balun, the AVO-A4-WP transmit analog audio
in either direction up to 2,500 feet and is ideal for corporate A/V, churches, schools,
auditoriums, and almost any other situation involving audio distribution.
The Intelix
AvoCat Series of baluns is the ideal solution for sending audio and
video over structured cabling. When signal quality matters, choose Intelix.
Installation
AvoCat
Series
To install an AVO-A2-WP balun, perform the following steps:
1. Turn off power and disconnect the audio equipment by following the
manufacturer’s instructions.
2. Make certain that outlets and cross connects to which you will connect the AVO-
A4-WP are configured properly and labeled appropriately to identify the circuit.
3. Verify the desired twisted pairs are not being used for other LAN or telephony
equipment.
4. Connect the RCA outputs from the source equipment to the AVO-A4-WP.
Connect the RCA inputs from the receive device to a second AVO-A4-WP or
another compatible Intelix balun, such as the AVO-A4.
5. Connect the two baluns with a structured cable with RJ45 connectors, such as
Cat 5. Verify the cable’s pinout conforms to EIA/TIA 568A or 568B pattern
standards.
6. Power on the source and destination equipment and test for correct operation.
Caution: Do not mount the balun over equipment ventilation openings.
Covering the openings may cause the equipment to overheat.
Caution: Do not attempt to disassemble or alter the balun housing. There are
no user-serviceable parts inside the AVO-A4-WP. Modifying the unit
will void your warranty.
Caution: Do not connect the AVO-A4-WP to a telecommunication outlet
wired to unrelated equipment. Making such a connection may damage
the equipment and/or balun. Please ensure all wiring is “straight-
through.”
