The VLEXTA170 is an audio extender system comprising a Transmitter (VLEXTA170T) and a Receiver (VLEXTA170R), designed to extend various audio signals over CATx cable. This system facilitates the transmission of Stereo audio signals up to 170 meters and TOSLINK/COAX digital audio signals up to 290 meters using a single CATx cable (CAT5e/6/7).
Function Description:
The VLEXTA170 system acts as a bridge for audio signals, allowing them to be transmitted over long distances without significant loss in quality. The Transmitter unit accepts three types of audio inputs: TOSLINK digital audio, COAX digital audio, and Stereo analog audio. Users can switch between these inputs using a DIP switcher on the Transmitter's front panel. The Receiver unit then provides synchronous outputs for all three audio types: TOSLINK, COAX, and RCA (L+R) for stereo analog audio. This flexibility makes the VLEXTA170 suitable for various professional AV installations where different audio formats need to be distributed over extended ranges.

Usage Features:
- Input Flexibility: The Transmitter offers three switchable audio inputs (TOSLINK, COAX, Stereo), allowing users to connect various audio sources. The DIP switcher on the front panel of the Transmitter enables easy selection of the desired input source.
- Synchronous Outputs: The Receiver provides three synchronous audio outputs (TOSLINK, COAX, RCA L+R), ensuring that all connected audio devices receive the selected audio signal simultaneously.
- Power over Cable (PoC): A convenient feature is that the Transmitter is powered by the Receiver via the CATx cable (12VDC), eliminating the need for a separate power adapter at the Transmitter end. This simplifies installation and reduces cable clutter.
- Long-Distance Transmission: The system supports impressive transmission distances, extending Stereo audio up to 170m and digital audio (TOSLINK/COAX) up to 290m over standard CATx cables, making it suitable for large venues or multi-room audio distribution.
- Status Indicators: Both the Transmitter and Receiver units feature a red power indicator on their rear panels, providing a visual cue that the devices are powered on.
- Firmware Updatable: Both units include a Micro USB port for updating firmware, allowing for future enhancements and bug fixes.
Maintenance Features:
- User Manual: A comprehensive user manual is provided to guide users through the setup and operation of the device.
- Safety Precautions: The manual emphasizes important safety precautions, including not dismantling the housing, avoiding exposure to moisture, ensuring proper ventilation, and using only specified parts, to prevent damage, malfunction, or injury.
- Cleaning: Users are advised to unplug the power before cleaning the unit and to avoid using liquid or aerosol cleaners.
- Long-Term Storage: If the device is left unused for an extended period, it is recommended to unplug the power cord.
- Professional Servicing: All servicing should be referred to qualified service personnel.
- Warranty: The product comes with a limited warranty of three years, and customers are encouraged to contact their distributor for details or in case of defective or missing parts.
