Options for Cat-5 / Cat-6 UTP Distribution Systems

Audio Authority's Cat 5 matrix switching, distribution, and extension systems require Cat 5 receivers. You may use one type or any combination of the receivers shown below.

  • 9878 is perfect where the style and toughness of stainless steel is desired, or for shallow mounting depth
  • 9879 is great for single gang applications where style is key, or a rear-facing IR jack is required
  • 9880 is ideal where a wallplate style is not practical
  • 1180RD is the single Cat 5 version of the 9879, and is ideal where stereo audio and IR are not needed
  • 1180R is the single Cat 5 version of the 9880, and is ideal where stereo audio and IR are not needed
