connection of any Crestron Home
® Category 5 (CAT5) balanced audio

the input of an Adagio system or CNX-PAD8A audio distribution
processor, the ABAR-1 allows any Crestron Home CAT5 balanced audio
source to be installed up to 500 feet from the central equipment location.
A single CAT5e type cable* is all that is required between the audio
source and the ABAR-1.
An international version of the ABAR-1, called the ABARI-1 is also
available.
* Maximum distance for CAT5 balanced audio is 500 feet using CresCAT®, CresCAT-IM, or quality
