Component Video/Digital Audio Balun
(IC469A, IC566A)
Installation Guide
Introduction
The Component Video/Digital Audio Balun (IC469A, IC566A) allows one
component video (YPbPr or RGB) signal and one Digital Audio signal to be
transmitted via cost-effective unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. Used in pairs, the
Component Video/Digital Audio Balun supports 480i/p, 720p and 1080i/p resolution
for hi-definition (HDTV) video applications. The product allows four coaxial cables
to be replaced by one Category 5 twisted pair cable allowing standard structured
cabling techniques to be used for more efficient cabling.
Installation
One (1) pair of baluns are needed to complete one component (YPbPr/RGB) connection
via Cat5 twisted pair. To install the baluns, perform the following steps:
1.
Identify the pin configuration of the baluns. Three (3) twisted pairs are required
for video and one (1) twisted pair is required for optional digital audio. The pin
configuration follows the EIA/TIA 568A/B standard. The Component
Video/Digital Audio Balun is reverse polarity sensitive. Please ensure that wiring
is straight-through (Ring to Ring, Tip to Tip).
2.
Plug one (1) balun into the component video coaxial cable output of the video
source according to the color code of the RCA cable leads.
