Quick Installation Guide
Overview
The Stereo Hi-Fi Audio Wall Balun (500028-WP-US) allows unbalanced line level stereo
audio to be transmitted up to 3,250 ft (1.0 km) via an unshielded copper twisted pair (UTP)
cable in a point-to-point connection. Used in pairs, or in conjunction with the 500028, the
product is designed for high fidelity applications where full audio bandwidth (20 Hz to
20 kHz) is required. Used in pairs, the Stereo Hi-Fi Audio Wall Balun eliminates costly and
bulky audio cables, allowing audio equipment to be connected or moved within a structured
cabling environment. Applications include; Audio distribution, high-fidelity sound systems,
and custom residential audio systems.
Installation
One (1) pair of baluns is needed to complete one stereo hi-fi audio connection via Cat 5E/6
twisted pair. To install the baluns, perform the following steps:
1. Identify the pin configuration of the baluns. Two (2) twisted
pairs are required as shown in the diagram to the right. The
pin configuration follows the EIA/TIA 568A/B standard. The
Stereo Hi-Fi Balun is reverse polarity sensitive. Please ensure
that wiring is straight-through (Ring to Ring, Tip to Tip).
