The SixDrive incorporates the key signal paths necessary for premium audio and video entertainment, plus an IR pathway for easy remote control of AV components. All this over just two inexpensive, easy to install Cat 5 cables. The Model 1171 Cat 5 MultiDriver distributes HDTV signals to Model 9879 Wallplates up to 1,000 feet from the source.

Up to 42 outputs can be obtained from a single system. Adding an 802-567 (up to 18 additional outputs) or 802-568 (up to 36 additional outputs) system bus cable, and Model 1170 Cat 5 Multidriver Expanders increases the outputs in groups of six. Additional Cat 5 receivers are required as needed.

The Wallplate
Wallplate/receivers come with three Decora color inserts (The Decora trim cover shown is not included). They are easy to install in a standard single-gang electrical box. Two Cat 5 cables deliver component video, digital audio and analog audio to each Wallplate. The 3.5mm IR jacks provide a convenient pathway for a third party IR remote distribution network over the Cat 5 pathway. Use the front or convenient rear facing IR jack for exterior or in-wall IR receivers. Use compatible IR receivers and emitters (seeUser Manual). IR receiver and emitter equipment not included.

Premium Quality Signal at Any Distance
Our unique cable length compensation allows adjustment for the optimal signal strength at any distance up to 1,000 feet from the source. Like our commercial video distribution products, the AVM-71 provides reliable ground isolation, preventing hum bars and other artifacts associated with ground loops.

Expandable in Increments of Six
It's easy to expand a SixDrive. Simply add 1170 Expanders to the 1171 MultiDriver and connect additional Wallplate/receivers. Up to 42 Wallplates may be served in this way. See the PDF User Manual for details.

To the Home Owner
While the AVM-71 is ideal for new construction or an existing home, it does require special knowledge and tools to install. We suggest you contact a local custom home installation specialist. Many installation specialists are members of the Custom Electronic Design & Installation Association and can be located through the CEDIA website.
