Audio Authority Model 9870 DuoDrive

Expandable HDTV Signal Distribution System

This is the Audio Authority model 9870 HDTV signal distribution system.

Naturally, from the HDTV Signal Distribution Leader
Audio Authority has long been known as the expert in retail showroom signal distribution. It's only natural that they should bring that expertise to the custom home installation marketplace.

The new 9870 Series incorporates the key signal paths necessary for effective audio and video entertainment, plus an IR pathway for easy remote control of AV components. All this over just two inexpensive, easy to install Cat 5 cables. The Model 9871 Cat 5 Driver distributes HDTV signals up to 1,000 feet from the source.

Dazzling, and Expandable
The 9870 Series delivers pristine high definition video signal with astounding clarity and color fidelity up to 1,000 feet from the source. Like our commercial video distribution products, the 9870 Series provides reliable ground isolation, preventing hum bars and other artifacts associated with ground loops.

It’s easy to expand a 9870 System to any size. Simply stack additional 9871 Drivers using our Kit 46 stacking kit, or connect using RCA cables. An unlimited number of Wallplates may be served in this way.

The Driver
Each Driver can feed two 9878 Wallplates, and expanding capacity is as easy as adding more Drivers and Wallplates. Inputs include Y/Pb/Pr Component Video, left/right analog audio, and coaxial digital audio.  It has pass-though outputs for each of these inputs, as well as CAT5 outputs for two wall plates.

The Wallplate
 The Wallplate is easy to install in a standard dual-gang electrical box. Each durable, stainless steel Wallplate offers component video, digital audio and analog audio jacks, plus an antenna pass-through jack (RF cable for antenna jack functionality must be added separately). The IR jack provides a convenient pathway for a third party IR remote distribution network over the Cat 5 pathway. IR receiver and emitter equipment not included.
