The Black Box Compact CAT5 Audio/Video Receiver is a compact, dependable solution for extending AV signals over standard CAT5 cabling. Engineered to pair seamlessly with Compact CAT5 Audio/Video Splitters, this receiver lets you place displays, projectors, or audio zones wherever you need them, without sacrificing signal quality or installation speed. Ideal for classrooms, conference rooms, retail displays, and multi-room home theaters, the receiver delivers a clean, plug-and-play experience that minimizes downtime and technical headaches. With its straightforward design—no software to install and no switches to set—you can deploy a robust AV distribution network in minutes rather than hours or days. The system is designed to keep costs down while maintaining professional-grade performance, ensuring you get reliable video and audio across distances that would normally require bulky wiring or more complex equipment. Whether you’re expanding an existing setup or installing a fresh AV distribution, this receiver helps you achieve consistent, high-quality results across remote stations.

  • Plug-and-Play Convenience: Set up is quick and simple—connect the CPU end through a Compact CAT5 AV Splitter, run CAT5 to the remote receiver, and attach your display or AV device. There are no software installations to perform and no switches to configure, so you can complete a multi-room deployment in a fraction of the time required by traditional AV routing solutions.
  • One Receiver Per Remote Station: Plan your AV distribution by assigning a dedicated receiver to each remote room or device. When you purchase a Compact CAT5 AV Splitter for the CPU end (AC154A-2 or AC154A-8), the system can feed multiple remote stations with consistent, synchronized audio and video, simplifying installation and maintenance across campuses or residences.
  • Designed to Work with Compact CAT5 AV Splitters: The receiver is optimized to pair with Black Box Compact CAT5 AV Splitters, specifically AC154A-2 and AC154A-8 models. This pairing enables scalable distribution to several remote outputs while preserving signal integrity and timing, so every room receives the same high-quality AV experience as the source.
  • Versatile Use Across Environments: From classrooms and meeting rooms to retail displays and home entertainment systems, this receiver supports reliable AV delivery over standard CAT5 wiring. It helps you reduce clutter, lower installation costs, and preserve cable management without compromising performance, enabling flexible layouts and easier future upgrades.
  • Reliable, Low-Maintenance Design: Built for professional environments, the Compact CAT5 Receiver emphasizes durability and ease of upkeep. Its plug-and-play architecture minimizes the need for on-site tech support, reducing downtime and enabling facility managers to scale or reconfigure their AV networks with confidence.

Technical Details of Black Box Compact CAT5 Audio/Video Receiver

  • Compatibility: Works with Compact CAT5 AV Splitters (AC154A-2 or AC154A-8) to distribute AV to multiple remote receivers.
  • Cabling: Uses standard CAT5 twisted-pair cabling for AV transmission, enabling flexible routing and easier upgrades in existing installations.
  • Remote Stations: Configured on a per-station basis; each remote location requires its own receiver to receive the source signal.
  • Installation Philosophy: Plug-and-play by design; there are no software requirements or DIP switches to configure, which simplifies deployment and reduces learning curves for technicians.
  • CPU-End Splitter Requirement: A compatible splitter is required at the CPU end, specifically AC154A-2 or AC154A-8, to distribute signals to all remote receivers.

How to install Black Box Compact CAT5 Audio/Video Receiver

  • Plan the layout: Determine how many remote stations you need and identify the appropriate CPB-end splitter model (AC154A-2 or AC154A-8) to support the number of outputs required for your installation.
  • Prepare cabling: Run standard CAT5 cabling from the CPU-end splitter to each remote receiver location. Keep runs tidy and label each run to simplify future maintenance or reconfigurations.
  • Connect the CPU end: Install the Compact CAT5 AV Splitter at the CPU/source location and verify that it is powered and operational (per system requirements). Ensure the splitter model you selected matches the number of remote receivers in use.
  • Connect each remote receiver: Attach a CAT5 cable from the CPU-end splitter to the corresponding remote receiver. At each remote location, connect the AV output from the receiver to your display, projector, or other AV device as required.
  • Test and finalize: Power on the source and all remote devices. Confirm that video and audio are properly delivered to every remote station. If any issues arise, recheck cable terminations and ensure the CPU-end splitter is the correct model for the number of receivers in use.
  • Documentation and labeling: Document the configured remote stations and their corresponding displays or zones to simplify future changes or expansions. Maintain labeling for cables and units to facilitate quick troubleshooting.

Super cute, but wrong colors!!
Size: Pack of 3, Color: Small/Med Bone
Very cute!! The squeak is quite loud, but it's still nice to use. I will say, I did get the wrong colors...The colors on the listing are purple, pink, and green, but I got red and yellow instead.
