Niles C5-DA Installation Manual

C5-DA FOR PLACING DIGITAL AUDIO DEVICES EXTENDED DISTANCES FROM THEIR AUDIO SOURCE C A T - 5 D I G I T A L A U D I O B A L U N The C5-DA allows a digital audio device, such as a CD player, to be located an extended distance from the system it is to be connected to. Doing so with conventional audio cabling is both expensive and prone to signal degradation. By using a pair of these devices and a run of CAT-5 the problem can be solved inexpensively and without signal loss and the introduction of noise. In addition, in today’s retrofit market an installer cannot always successfully run a wire from point A to point B. There exists however an abundance of twisted pair cabling in many homes. By using a pair of these devices with an existing wire an installer may be able to complete a job that he otherwise could not. N i l e s A u d i o C o r p o r a t i o n 1 2 3 3 1 S .
