OVERVIEW

CrystalLink Audio Extender from Rose Electronics is the perfect addition to systems that require extending audio away from a PC. Headphones or multimedia speakers may be directly connected to the receiver. The receiver unit has a built-in microphone preamplifier, which allows adjustment of the microphone gain via a potentiometer on the bottom of the receiver.

Installation is straightforward.

1- Connect the transmitter's Mic Out and Line In ports to the corresponding ports on your PC or audio source using a 3.5mm male-to-male audio cable. The jacks are color coded to PC standard: connect pink to pink and green to green.

2- Connect a Microphone to the receiver's Mic Input port (pink) and a set of speakers to the Line Out port (green).

3- Connect the local unit to the remote unit with up to 1,000 feet (300 meters) of CAT5 cable.

4- Connect the power adapter to the local unit's +9VDC power jack and a power source.

Only one power adapter is needed to power both the transmitter and receiver. The extender can transmit audio up to 1,000 feet over CAT5 cable. CrystalLink Audio Extender can be combined with Rose Electronics Audio Splitter product line to extend an audio source to several remote locations.
