The Intelix AVO-A2 balun passively transmits two
mono or one stereo analog audio signal via Cat 5
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable, such as Cat 5.
Used in pairs, the AVO-A2 transmits analog audio in
either direction up to 2500 feet, providing a low-cost,
versatile cabling solution which uses a building’s
existing structured cabling system

The AVO-A2 is ideal for corporate AV, houses of
worship, schools, auditoriums, and virtually any other
situation involving structured audio distribution

To install an AVO-A2 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-A2

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 inputs from the source equipment to one of the two baluns. Two

AVO-A2’s are needed—one at each end of the run—and are interchangeable.

5. Connect a 4-pair Cat 5 cable from the RJ45 8-position modular jack of the AVO-A2

to a structured cable, such as Cat 5.

6. Connect the second balun’s RCA inputs to the destination equipment.
7. Connect the 4-pair Cat 5 cable from the RJ45 8-position modular jack of another

AVO-A2 to the structured cable attached to the first balun.

8. Power on the source and destination equipment and test for correct operation.

Installation

Caution: Do not attempt to open the balun housing. There are no user-serviceable parts

inside the AVO-A2. Opening the unit will void your warranty.

Caution: Do not connect the AVO-A2 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.”

Caution: Do not mount the balun over equipment ventilation openings. Covering the

openings may cause the equipment to overheat.
