Note
: The Stereo PC-Audio Balun is phase polarity sensitive. Therefore, in order to
achieve full stereo audio quality, please ensure that the wiring is straight-through
and according to EIA568 (A or B) standard.
3.
Verify the colors of the RCA plugs and connect one (1) Stereo PC-Audio
Balun to the PC audio 3.5mm connector of the PC output.
4.
Verify the colors of the RCA plugs and connect a compatible MuxLab Stereo
Audio Balun (i.e. 500027) to the left-audio and right-audio RCA connectors of
the TV or audio receiver at the remote end.
5.
Complete the connection between the two (2) baluns, using standard UTP
cable, connector blocks and appropriate modular RJ45 outlets.
6.
Power-on the audio equipment and check the audio quality. The audio should
be clear within the maximum specified distances. The following diagram
shows a typical configuration using the 500030 and the 500027.

Probable Causes
Possible Solutions
Poor audio
quality
EMI interference.
Check that wiring is not too close to
transformers and ballasts.
Split pair
Ensure that the UTP pairs are not
split and that each pair of wires is
twisted.
No audio
No power
Check your audio system for power.
Open circuit
Check wiring to ensure continuity
Defective balun
Change Stereo PC-Audio Baluns for
another pair.
Audio phase
cancellation
Reversed wires
Check for straight-through wiring.

Distance specifications
exceeded
Check DC loop resistance and verify
if distance spec is exceeded. Reduce
cable length or eliminate high-loss
components.
