This is the Audio Authority model AVX-561-NR AVAtrix
Whole-House Routing System w/ Component Video.
Audio Authority has 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 (up to six) monitor can select between any of six sources! 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 . 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.
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 AVX-561-NR are sold separately - you can select
the exact receiver styles that you prefer below.

Homeowners - The AVAtrix is perfect for sending your favorite media
from a central location to anywhere around your home. Simply plug your
sources into the AVAtrix, run the Cat 5 cables to where you want to
watch TV, connect the Wallplates, and select what you'd like to watch.
It keeps electronic clutter out of sight while delivering pristine high
definition anywhere you want it. Note: While the AVAtrix 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.
Integrators - This is your ticket to quicker, simpler, headache-free
installations. Two Cat 5 cables are all you need - they do the work of
six coaxial cable runs plus provide an IR pathway for source control.
Balanced line technology allows for superior noise rejection and
excellent picture quality. The AVX-561 is perfectly suited for home use,
restaurant television distribution, digital signage, even retail
demonstrations of HDTV.
