RE: KAT5 Website Updated



You set up like this:
 
AV-Source --into-- KAT5 Tx unit -----------------Cat5/6 to TV room ---------------------- KAT5 Rx Unit -- into -- TV SCART socket.
If you had the holy grail that is the KAt5 switch, you plug the TX unit into the Switch & Kat5 from there to the RX unit, or you plug the AV source directly into th switch, depending on whether or not the TX units are integrated into the switch
 
simple really!

Yes, but how to transmit TV image from node 0 to TV.
I don't have coax in walls, but Cat6 only.

That's what KAT5 is for!  The switcher is not developed yet - the boxes you
see are the transmitter/receivers which plug into CAT5 at one end, and your
appliance at the other.

TV-out card?  Cheaper than developing a new device - my new one arrived
today for the princely sum of £25 all in.  You wouldn't need a monitor then
either - just use the TV.
