What is an AV system?
What is a BeoLink System?
MASTER CONTROL LINK
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
When a Bang & Olufsen audio system and video system are interconnected,
they make up an AV system.
An AV system offers a number of possibilities which are not accessible if
the products are placed as independent products. For example, in an AV
system the sound can be moved from the TV to the audio system
speakers; a function that proves its excellence when the sound and the
picture have to merge into a higher synthesis. The sound from the audio
system can similarly be moved to the TV speakers. This function comes in
handy if you wish to record sound from the audio system on the video
tape recorder, for example.
The interconnection of the audio and video systems is furthermore a
condition for distributing and operating video sources (satellite, TV and
video tape recorder) to and from other rooms in the house.
BeoLink System is a common denominator for those elements which
enable the distribution of sound and picture to different rooms in the
house.
In other words, the BeoLink System enables operation and enjoyment of a
centrally placed audio/video system from different rooms in the house.
Some of the basic elements included therein are:
The obligatory 7-conductor Master Control Link cable (MCL cable), X-tra
kit, relay boxes, MCL 2 AV panel and IWS 2000.
So, with a centrally placed audio system and a BeoLink System it is
possible to listen to and operate e.g. a radio, CD player, tape recorder,
etc. from other rooms.
If the centrally placed audio system is connected with a video system,
thereby forming an AV system, a host of new possibilities are made
available. This further allows the distribution of video sources to other
rooms. In addition to listening to and operating the audio system from
different rooms, it is also possible to watch, listen to and operate the
video system from other rooms.
For example, you can listen to the TV news through the speakers in the
kitchen; or you can watch and operate satellite TV and the video tape
recorder via the TV in the bedroom. Encoded TV and satellite programmes
can also be watched in the link room, provided that a decoder is
connected in the main room. Another possibility is to listen to the radio
via the TV in the bedroom, for example.
