GEFEN EXT-AUD-1000 Analog Audio Extender, 1,000 ft

Keep analog audio where the source belongs and place the speakers where the room demands. The GEFEN EXT-AUD-1000 extends unbalanced analog audio up to 1,000 ft over a single CAT-5e cable, making it a practical choice for distributed AV, classrooms, control spaces, and other installs where copper runs would otherwise be too short. The system uses a sender and receiver architecture. The sender sits next to the audio source, while the receiver connects to speakers or an audio output device. Stereo cables are supplied for source connection, and the link between units uses an RJ-45 shielded connector. Bidirectional transmission supports both speaker and mic paths, which is important when the audio chain needs to move in both directions rather than just one. With a 20 Hz to 20 kHz frequency response and 3.5 mm stereo audio connectors, this extender is built for straightforward analog integration. Power draw is modest at 5 W maximum per power supply, helping keep the install efficient. For teams that need dependable analog extension without converting the signal path, this model offers the reach and wiring simplicity that lower-cost short-range adapters cannot match.
