Money-Saving Alert:
If you are considering the AVM-562, you may also
want to take a look at our Special Limited-time offers on AVX-561-NR and
AVX-661-NR AVAtrix Systems! With features and functionality identical (or
superior) to the Model AVM-562, the 561 and 661 systems offer a truly outstanding value! For the AVX-561-NR,
the differences are strictly mechanical and cosmetic - the 562 is housed is a single, black, 2U cabinet whereas
the 561 system is housed in two silver-colored cabinets, with a stacked rack-mountable height of 3U. Model
AVX-661-NR adds local DVI capabilities to the long list of features found on 561 and 562 systems.
This is Audio Authority's AVAtrix 2.0 Cat 5 HD Matrix, Model AVM-562 Whole-House Routing System w/ Component
Video. The AVM-562 is essentially identical to the AVX-562 - the model number is the only change.
If you consider elegance of design and functionally, you will be hard-pressed to find any other system that
puts such a rich feature set and operational flexibility into a single well-integrated modular system.
This second-generation flagship product has so many features that it may be hard to take it all in - it
may help to read this AVM-562 focus
document to get an idea of how the various modules work together.
Audio Authority has once again combined their highly-respected electronic switching technology with a CAT-5
distribution system to create an amazingly flexible routing system. The system makes it simple to distribute
high-definition component video at up to 1080p, as well as digital audio, stereo audio, and IR. Any of the monitors
can select between any of the six sources! Watch and listen to the same source at all remote locations,
or watch/listen to any mix of the six sources at each remote location. If that is not enough, the system
can be expanded to handle up to 36 wallplates by stacking additional Model 1176 six-port Cat-5 Matrix Router
Expanders.
The standard AVM-562 system comes with a 4-port bus cable, which can accommodate system expansion to as many
as 18 ports. If you plan to expand the system beyond 18 ports, we also offer the model AVM-562E, which
comes standard with a 7-port bus cable The AVM-562E model is among the options shown below.
The system provides an IR pathway from each remote wallplate, making it possible to control the system from
multiple locations. In addition, there is also support for a local monitor/audio.
The CAT-5 driver system can transmit video and audio up to 1000 feet without any frequency roll-off or signal
attenuation, so colors and details are faithfully preserved for your maximum enjoyment.
Receiver units for the Model AVM-562 are sold separately - you can select the exact combination of receiver
styles that you prefer below.
Like most Audio Authority products, the Model AVM-562 comes with a one year limited warranty from the manufacturer.
Audio Authority's Description
6x7 HD Matrix System
Model AVM-562
The AVAtrix HD Cat 5 Matrix makes it easy to view any source from any video display at any time. The
system uses a pair of Cat 5 cables to deliver pristine HD picture, plus digital and analog sound up to
1,000 feet from the source to each of six remote Cat 5 Receivers.
AVM-562 is expandable to 18 total Cat 5 outputs. Order AVM-562E for 19-36 output configurations.
Add Model 9879, 9880, or 9878 Cat 5 wallplate/receivers to complete the system. Made in the USA.
Overview
The AVAtrix provides component video connection of sources, and distributes HD signals up to 1,000
feet away to convenient wallplates mounted wherever televisions are to be located. Supporting component
video up to 1080p, along with analog stereo audio, digital coaxial audio, and digital optical audio,
the AVAtrix was the industry's first Cat 5 matrix, and still leads the category with a combination of
performance, value, and unique features.

IR Routing
The AVAtrix includes an IR routing system that is unique in the industry. The new AVM-562 offers individual
IR outputs for each source. This routing system allows IR signals returned from a wallplate to control
only the source currently routed to that zone. This design is vital for installations including multiple
cable or satellite receivers of the same brand. The AVAtrix also includes a Main IR Output for all signals
returned from the remote zones.
Note: IR Routing is not a viable control method for all installations. Before planning
to use the AVAtrix's IR routing system in your installation, contact our technical support personnel
for more information.
