I'd tried a couple of baluns to get the audio from my receiver to the power amp at the back of my room. These picked up noise when patched over my CAT5 structured cabling system. Hopeless!
I thought I'd try the CAT100AU. I purchased an A to D to take the analogue out from the receiver into the CAT100AU transmitter and the analogue audio out from the receiver to the power amplifier. Plugged in the power to receiver (which powers the transmitter along the CAT5 cable) and it all worked without incident. No audible noise or latency. Spot on!
