Increasing Wire Runs Beyond the 220 Foot Maximum

If a VIA!4.0 must be mounted further than 220 feet from the head
end, it is possible to use a PVIA Wall Plate (typically a PVIA1) to
power the unit locally (within 110 feet). The diagrams in this section
show specific wiring schemes for stand-alone systems and each
ELAN multi-room system.
Stand-Alone
Use local PVIA1s for connecting VIA!4.0s to an amplified IR
Connection Block to make a large stand-alone system, as
shown below.
