Traditionally, analog audio and video signals have required the use of expensive heavy-gauge shielded cabling. An entire industry of “exotic” cabling has evolved, claiming superior signal transmission performance from the use of these very high-end cables. Now, thanks to an ever-expanding selection of signal conversion products for AV over twisted-pair cabling, it’s easier than ever to use inexpensive “category” cabling to transmit high quality audio and video signals (see related article in this issue, “DVI/HDMI Signals over Twisted-Pair Cable,” beginning on page 26). UTP cabling was originally developed S by the computer industry in the late 1970s for transmitting digital data over computer networks. Digital data signals are relatively forgiving and can tolerate considerable interference and degradation before affecting the integrity of the signal. More recently, UTP cable began to be used to carry analog video signals, which are much more demanding. Using UTP for AV signals is not simply a 42 | AV TECHNOLOGY | january 2009 www.avtechnologyonline.com http://www.altinex.com http://www.atterotech.com http://www.amx.com http://www.avocent.com http://www.crestron.com http://www.extron.com http://www.fsrinc.com http://www.gefen.com http://www.hallresearch.com http://www.intelix.com http://www.kramerelectronics.com http://www.lynxbroadband.com http://www.magenta-research.com http://www.magenta-research.com http://www.avtechnologyonline.com
