RE: Re: Remote audio for voice recognition?



Yes, of course you can send audio over Cat5 - if you just send line
level audio, you may get interference though depending on the run and
length. You could use an audio balun or something like Keith's Kat5 modules
(like I do) which convert the line level audio into a balanced signal which
is great at rejecting noise and interference etc.
