The AV501HDX 1×5 Component A/V amplifier, compatible with all HDTV component video signals, distributes one high definition source to five different locations without any signal loss. The amplifier also supports composite video and digital audio.

The current firmware of various Satellite service providers has an EDID interpretation bug that is prone to errors during 3D content playback via CAT5 baluns. To isolate this issue we recommend use any of Key Digital® Phantom Series™ HDMI Distribution Amplifiers, or Key Digital® Phantom Series™ HDMI Switchers, between Set Top Box and KD-CATHD150 HDMI balun. The HDMI Distribution Amplifier or Switcher must be set to the 3D default EDID.
