This Audio Authority AMV-71D SixDrive system can distribute high-definition component video, as well
as both analog and digital audio, to six HDTV monitors, using inexpensive CAT5-type cables. In addition,
this modular system can be easily expanded to accommodate as many as 42 locations! You can add 1171BK
expansion modules to increase capacity in increments of six (add to your order below).
The SixDrive system delivers pristine HDTV video at resolutions up to 1080p, as well as full bandwidth
analog stereo audio and multi-channel digital audio. The AVM-71D even includes a return pathway for
IR control. The unit and expansion modules can be rack-mounted to form an elegant (and rather large)
distribution system. Please read Audio Authority's description (below), and take a look at the
user manual for more details.
The system includes the 1171BK driver unit, (6) 9879 Decora-style wallplate receivers, an 18-volt universal
power supply and user manual.
Like most Audio Authority products, the model AVM-71 comes with a one year limited warranty from the
manufacturer.
Audio Authority's Description
SixDrive 1:6 Cat 5 MultiDriver Distribution System
Model AVM-71D
Distribute HDTV to multiple areas over two Cat 5 cables with the SixDrive. Rack mountable and
expandable in increments of six outputs. Handles resolutions up to 1080p.
One input, six outputs of HD Component Video, Analog Audio, and Digital Audio. IR pathway for
control. Not for use with AVAtrix systems.
System Includes Cat 5 receivers: Six Model 9879 Wallplates.
The SixDrive incorporates the key signal paths necessary for premium 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 1171 Cat 5 MultiDriver distributes HDTV signals to Model
9879 wallplates up to 1,000 feet from the source. (See a comparison chart of our other Cat 5 systems
here.)
- One input, six Cat 5 Wallplate outputs (Wallplates included)
- Up to 1080p component video (YPbPr)
- Coaxial digital and stereo analog audio
- Infrared remote jack for IR pathway
- Wallplate/receiver powered through Cat 5 cable
- Alternative Cat 5 wallplate/receiver
options
- Rack ears available (Model 1191)
To Add More Outputs to an AVM-71 SixDrive System
Up to 42 outputs can be obtained from a single system. Adding an 802-567 system bus cable (up
to 18 additional outputs) or 802-568 (up to 36 additional outputs) cable, and Model 1170BK Cat 5
Multidriver Expanders increases the outputs in groups of six. Additional Cat 5 receivers are required
as needed.
The Wallplate
Model 9879 wallplate/receivers come with three Decora color inserts (The Decora trim cover shown
is not included). The SixDrive can also be used with any of our other
Cat 5 receiver styles. The 9879 receivers
are easy to install in a standard single-gang electrical box. Two Cat 5 cables deliver component
video, digital audio and analog audio to each Wallplate. The 3.5mm IR jacks provide a convenient
pathway for a third party IR remote distribution network over the Cat 5 pathway. Use the front or
convenient rear facing IR jack for exterior or in-wall IR receivers. Use compatible IR receivers
and emitters (see User Manual).
IR receiver and emitter equipment not included.
Premium Quality Signal at Any Distance
Our unique cable length compensation allows adjustment for the optimal signal strength at any
distance up to 1,000 feet from the source. Like our commercial video distribution products, the
AVM-71 provides reliable ground isolation, preventing hum bars and other artifacts associated with
ground loops.
Expandable in Increments of Six
It's easy to expand a SixDrive. Simply add 1170BK Expanders to the 1171 MultiDriver and connect
additional Wallplate/receivers. Up to 42 Wallplates may be served in this way. See the PDF
User Manual for details.
To the Home Owner
While the AVM-71 is ideal for new construction or an existing home, it does require special knowledge
and tools to install. We suggest you contact a local custom home installation specialist. Many installation
specialists are members of the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association and can be located
through the CEDIA website.
