Audio Extender Kit - Tight AV EXT-AU313-TP

Long-distance audio transmission over twisted pair for uncompressed signals

Overview
The TightAV Audio Extender Kit enables high-quality audio signals to be sent over long distances using twisted pair cable (Cat5e/6). It supports stereo analog or digital (depending on model variation) and includes a transmitter and receiver unit.

Description
This kit is designed for installations where audio sources and playback zones are far apart, such as auditoriums, classrooms, houses of worship or commercial installations. The transmitter unit attaches to the source and converts the audio signal for distribution over standard network cabling. The receiver unit restores the signal to amplified or line-level audio at the destination. The system ensures minimal signal degradation, with robust noise rejection and full bandwidth retention. It is powered via local DC power supplies or sometimes via remote powering depending on the model.

Key Features
Allows extended audio transmission over Cat5e/6 cable
Preserves high fidelity and low noise performance
Transmitter and receiver units included
Supports both analog and digital audio (model dependent)
Compact, rack-mount or surface installable
