S-Video/Audio Balun GLI – 500018
Quick Installation Guide

Overview

The S-Video/ Audio GLI Balun allows one (1) S-Video channel and one (1) stereo line level analog
audio channel to be transmitted via unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable in a point-to-point
connection for more versatile cabling. The S-Video/Audio GLI Balun offers full ground loop
isolation to help to eliminate hum-bars or other distortions related to ground loop. The balun is
used in conjunction with other standard MuxLab S-Video products such as the 500016, 500017,
500038 and 500200 in order to provide ground loop isolation for the system.

Applications

The S-Video/Audio GLI Balun is applied where ground loop issues may be present. Some
applications include home theatre systems, boardroom projector systems, classroom training and
rental & staging.
Caution:
Do not attempt to open the housing. There are no user-serviceable parts inside the
S-Video/Audio GLI Balun. Opening the unit may void your warranty.
Note:
In order to support the full 20Hz to 20KHz audio bandwidth, the baluns at both ends must
support 20Hz to 20KHz bandwidth. Please verify the balun's specification table. Furthermore,
only amplified speakers may be connected directly to the S-Video/Audio GLI Balun. Do not
connect 4 ~ 8 ohm speakers directly to the balun.
