AVAtrix Multi-Zone Audio Router
Model 1172BK
$599.00 USD

Enabling easy integration of whole-house audio into an AVAtrix Cat 5 Matrix system, the 1172BK is a perfect complement to projects involving distributed audio. The Multi-Zone Audio Router's selectable "source" and "tracking" modes support a variety of whole-house audio configurations for maximum installation versatility.

Rack mountable: rack-mount ears included.

Source Mode: The audio output from the each source connected to the AVAtrix is looped out to the corresponding audio output on the 1172BK. (Example: Source 1 audio is replicated on 1172BK's Output 1). This allows audio to remain live at each in-room Cat 5 receiver, while also interfacing to a third party whole house audio control system for further processing, amplification, and room selection.

Tracking Mode: The audio output from the source currently selected on the AVAtrix in a zone is routed to the corresponding audio output on the 1172BK. (Example: Zone 2 is viewing Source 4 - the 1172BK would output Source 4 audio from its Output 2). The output from the 1172BK can then be connected to a separate dedicated amplifier, used to drive speakers in that zone. This allows audio to be switched in sync with the video source being viewed in each zone.
