Re: Multidrop KAT5 AV Daisy Chain

[Mark Fulford]

Looks like I may be struggling to implement multisource. When I had my
house
built I put 8 coax cables to my A/V point, but only 2 CAT5. One CAT5 is
split
between IR and Sky telephone and the other is already used for KAT5. Well,
they
do say you never have enough points.

I am thinking that in the not too distant future, the way to do this will
be
with a disk based A/V server in the loft, together with Sky box and digital
tv
box, linked to TVs, PCs etc. Your KAT5 technology will be a vital part of
that.
In the meantime, I am more than happy with multisource and multizone -
albeit
one at a time.

One other question. Do you have a view on what kind of speed wireless
networking
will have to reach to support the same quality of output as wired?

Yes.

Having said that I may produce an alternative input board that will take a
direct AV input rather than KAT5 so that any sources located with the
switcher can be directly connected via SCART.
