Break Away From Rigid Connection
Choices with Adaptable, Efficient
Break-Away Terminations.
You’ll select from two Break-Away termination options: Decora*-compatible
Break-Away wall plates and Break-Away Flying Leads. Just choose the
right termination for your application – without having to worry about
performance variation or installation barriers. In fact, you can even mix
flying leads with wall plates. For example, opt for flying leads when cables
terminate directly to the back of an A/V component rack, and use a wall
plate when it will be visible next to a projector.
You have a choice of more than 20 signal configurations with RapidRun
Break-Aways. Combined with your choice of wall plate colors and flying
lead lengths, RapidRun offers more than 100 configuration options! For
easy disguise on a theater ceiling, Break-Away wall plates are available in
traditional white, ivory and black. Plus, Break-Away flying leads are available
with 24-karat gold-plated connectors in lengths of 1.5ft, 3ft, 6ft and 10ft.
Combined with our unique DIN wall plates, they truly do provide the ultimate
flexibility and utility.
Most importantly, the versatility of RapidRun is unsurpassed because it
can grow as your system grows. Imagine this: you build your dream home
theater system with a new 50'' plasma screen and transfer your 27" TV to
the bedroom. You can simply run an HT Runner cable terminated with S-
Video and stereo audio to play DVDs or PVR programs from the living room
on the TV in your bedroom. Then when you’re ready to upgrade your 27''
bedroom TV to a 42" LCD, you can just change the Break-Away terminations.
Component video and stereo audio (or S/PDIF digital audio) Break-Away
terminations will turn your bedroom into a theater everyone will envy – for
less than the cost of a family outing to the movies!
Each Break-Away is color-coded to match with an
appropriate Runner:
•  Red Break-Aways are compatible with red digital Runners
• Blue Break-Aways are compatible with blue Home Theater (5-coax)
Runners
• Yellow Break-Aways are compatible with yellow PC/Video Runners
• Green Break-Aways are compatible with both yellow and blue Runners
(remember: yellow and blue make green)
Just match the colors and you can’
t go wrong!
