C5-SVA2 S-Video

 Stereo Audio Balun

 from Niles. With proper

y years of trouble free use.

The C5-SVA2 is a stand-alone device tha

t transforms on S-Video channel and a pair of audio 

channels to and from CAT-5 twisted pair cabling.

 It has two sets of simple connections. The 

first is one S-Video a pair of RCA connectors for the S-Video and line level audio signals.

 The 

second is a shielded CAT-5 connector for the CA

T-5 twisted pair connection.

 The circuitr

y is 

passive so there is no need for a power supply

. 

The C5-SVA2 allo

ws an S-Video and line-level audio device such as a VCR or Sa

tellite 

Receiver to be located an extended distance from the system it is to be connected to.

 Doing 

so with conventional audio video 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. Additionally

, in today’

s retrofit market an 

installer cannot always successfully run a wire from point 

A to point B. There exists ho

wever 

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.
