Provision versus Nexus (Preview)
The Scion Pro-6000 is a direct equivalent replacement for the previous
Nexus
range of products. We believe that the Scion 6000 is a better solution
than
the Nexus because even their entry-level Pro-6000 unit, feeds 13 inputs
into
6 rooms, (instead of 6 inputs into 6 rooms with Nexus Settop), it has
neater
terminations using special scart receivers fitted to the rear of the TV,
meaning the lead for Infrared mouse can be more discreet, they include
channel 'barring' controllable via PC software to prevent certain rooms
receiving from chosen equipment AND on the whole the Pro-6000 costs a few
hundred pounds less than the Nexus 6x6 settop.

The PRO-6000 series is truly an original 'Homes' system offering home
owners
full interactive control of Satellite and Terrestrial Television, Radio,
Hi-Fi and CCTV equipment from any point in the house using twisted pair
CAT5
cable.

The Scion PRO-6000 series may be used to extend a wide range of multimedia
equipment using almost any type of twisted pair cable. Applications
include
but are not limited to set-top boxes such as Analogue and Digital TV
decoders, DVD and VHS players, Hi-Fi and a host of other devices having
Infra-Red control facilities.
The PRO-6000 extenders have a robust data pass capability with extended
range to 60ft (28metres) which is transparent to the device controlling
protocol and will transfer the IR data, composite video and stereo audio
over distances greater than 300m. Standard installation requires one power
adapter at the transmitter end. Local power may be required for the
receiver
over greater distances.

Adapters to convert the SCART to standard RCA (Phono) connections are
available to suit displays without SCART inputs.
