Pre-Wiring

D5RH Digital Audio Distribution Hub to D5KP Amplifier Keypad

The D5RH and all associated components are wired using CAT-5 terminated to the T-568A Wiring Standard (Figure 2.2). When pre-wiring, run lengths of CAT-5 from the pre-determined equipment location (the “head-end”) to each Amplifier Keypad location. The CAT-5 routes all audio, power, IR and status information needed for full system operation.

Note: For maximum performance over long runs (more than 150 ft) run an additional 16AWG 2- conductor wire for external power.

Amplifier Keypad to Speakers

Run 16AWG 2-conductor stranded copper speaker wire between Amplifier Keypad locations and speaker locations.

Local Sources to Amplifier Keypad

Local sources are only available within the area that they are installed. They will not be available to other areas of the house as they are not distributed by the D5RH. Run lengths of CAT-5 from any local (in-room) source to the Amplifier Keypad located in that area.
