The Gefen Digital Audio Extender

Place your digital audio components anywhere you want with Gefen’s Digital

Audio Extender. It supports either S/PDIF or TOSLINK digital audio signals, which

are commonly used to transmit stereo and multichannel digital audio like Dolby®

Digital and DTS®. The Digital Audio Extender uses a Sender and Receiver system

connected by a CAT-5e cable to extend the digital audio up to a 330 feet (100

meters).

How It Works

The Digital Audio Extender’s Sender unit connects to the audio source

component. The Digital Audio Extender’s Receiver unit connects to the extended

audio component (up to 330 feet away). One CAT-5e cable connects the Sender to

the Receiver unit.

INTRODUCTION

The Digital Audio Extender system consists of:

(1) Digital Audio Extender - Sender Unit

(1) Digital Audio Extender - Receiver Unit

(1) 6 ft. TOSLINK Cable

(1) 5V DC power supply

(1) Quick-Start Guide

READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING

OR OPERATING THE DIGITAL AUDIO EXTENDER SYSTEM

Industry standard Category-5 (CAT-5 or CAT-5e) cables are used to link the Digital

Audio Extender Sender and Receiver units together.

The Digital Audio Extender units are housed in metal boxes for RF shielding.

The Digital Audio Extender uses any single CAT-5/CAT-5e/CAT-6a cable of no

more than 330 feet (100 meters) in length.

CONNECTING THE DIGITAL AUDIO EXTENDER

How to Connect the Digital Audio Extender System:

1- Connect your digital audio source’s outputs to the Sender unit’s digital input using

either the TOSLINK or the S/PDIF input. Please see “Panel Layout” on page 4

for a list of connectors on the units.

2- Connect the Sender and Receiver units to one another on their RJ45 link

connector jacks using a single CAT-5 cable.

3- Connect the digital output of the Receiver unit to the digital input of the amplier/

speaker system using either the TOSLINK or the S/PDIF connection. The digital

audio will be present on both the TOSLINK and S/PDIF output regardless of which

digital input is used on the Sender unit.

4- Power on your audio sources and audio playback system. Plug the included

5 Volt DC power supply into the Sender unit. Observe that the red LED on the

Receiver unit lights up. If it does not, examine all connections carefully and try

again. Upon successful powered connection of the Sender and Receiver units, you

will hear pristine digital audio on your digital audio playback equipment connected to

the Receiver unit.

Please refer to the next page (page 4) for a detailed panel layout showing

all connectors on the sender and receiver units.
