RE: Custom Kat5-RGB modules [newbie question]

[Keith Doxey]

Hi Rob,

The RGB modules are Video Only units as all 4 pairs in the CAT5 cable are
used for the Red, Green, Blue and Sync signals. If you need to distribute
the audio as well then you will need to use another set of standard KAT5
modules for the audio.

People tend to use them mostly on Plasma screens or Projectors where they
only require a video feed anyway as the audio tends to be routed via a
surround sound setup.

The RGB units are fitted with SCART sockets so will connect directly to the
RGB scart on your Tivo, Digibox, TV etc. To route the audio into a second
set of KAT5 units you would either need to use the VCR Scart of
Tivo/Digibox, or use the phono audio outputs and plug a SCART adaptor into
the second set of KAT5's

KAT5 RGB-TX is ?60-00
KAT5 RGB-RX is ?50-00

Hope that helps

Keith
