Cat 5 Distribution Amplifier Boosts Interest At CEDIA EXPO

ìWe had more booth traffic than any previous show, and most of the people stopping by came in because they specifically wanted to see this product demonstrated [the Model 9870 HDTV Cat 5 Signal Distribution System].î said Tom Higgins, Audio Authority Sales Manager.He added, ìInstallers are excited about it because itís the first product of its kind to allow quick and inexpensive Cat 5 installation without sacrificing HDTV signal quality.îTo promote their new product, Audio Authority drew a name every day of the show for the winner of a Model 9870 series HDTV Signal Distribution System. (See the www.audioauthority.com for a list of winners.) The winners each received one 9870 system, capable of delivering component video, analog and digital audio over Cat 5 cable to two Wallplates in remote locations. At each Wallplate, the Cat 5 signal is converted back to the original RCA format for connection to a TV and/or surround receiver.ìAudio Authority has been known in the HDTV Signal distribution arena for our retail demonstration products, so this new residential distribution system is a natural step to apply our experience and credibility in the home market.î Higgins explained.The 9870 System retails for $593.00
