FeaturesKey Features
The 9878 Wallplate/Receiver is easy to install in a standard dual-gang electrical box. Two Cat 5 cables deliver component video, digital audio and analog audio to each wallplate. If antenna connection is desired, run a separate coaxial cable to the RF antenna pass-through jack. The 3.5mm IR jack provides a convenient pathway for a third party IR remote distribution network. It is a passive, three-wire pathway on the Cat 5 bus, so it can pass IR signals either way. IR receiver and emitter equipment not included. See 9870D for a kit that includes single gang, 9879 wallplate/receivers. Reliable and Expandable Our unique cable length compensation allows adjustment for the optimal signal strength at any distance up to 1,000 feet from the source. Like our commercial video distribution products, the DuoDrive provides reliable ground isolation, preventing hum bars and other artifacts associated with ground loops. It's easy to expand a DuoDrive up to ten wallplate/recievers. Simply stack additional 9871 Drivers using our Kit 46 stacking kit, or connect using high quality RCA cables. The RCA bus output may be used to feed HDTV signals to a local video display and/or sound system. See the PDF Installation Manual for details. To the Home Owner While the DuoDrive is ideal for new construction or an existing home, it does require special knowledge and tools to install. We suggest you contact a local custom home installation specialist. Many installation specialists are members of the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association and can be located through the CEDIA website. Specifications
Frequently Asked QuestionsQ: How many outputs can a bussed system of 9870s support? A: Bussing together 9870 systems allows almost unlimited expansion. Generally we recommend limiting such a system to ten total Cat 5 drivers, or 20 maximum zone outputs. | |||||||
