Local Sources to Keypads
Local sources are only available within the area that they are installed. They will not be available to
other areas of the house as they are not distributed by the D5RH/D5XH. Run lengths of Cat-5 from
any local (in-room) source to the keypad located in that area.
Expanded 4 Source, 8-28 Zone System
D5XH Expansion Router
Figure 2-5 shows an expanded system with four sources and ten zones with the addition of Local
Sources in four of the zones. Each zone can have one local source. The system is comprised of a
D5RH Digital Audio Router, D5XH Expansion Router, D5KP Amplified Keypad Controllers, D5IP
Local Source Wall Plates and Xantech XTC Series Speakers. This configuration provides audio from
each source into each zone as well as control of each source from each zone. Zones with Local
Sources have access to and control of those sources, but the Local Sources are not available to other
zones within the system. This system can be expanded up to 28 zones using additional D5XH’s.
