SAN FRANCISCO (PCBC, Booth #6111), May 30 /PRNewswire/ -- Responding to
growing demand for high definition video throughout the home, Sony
Electronics today introduced the CAV-CVS12ES HD video distribution system
during the Pacific Coast Builders Conference being held in San Francisco.
The new system distributes 12 zones of high-definition video throughout
the home -- via a single Cat5e wire per zone -- and is fully integrated
with the Sony CAV-M1000ES and CAV-M1000NR audio/video distribution system.
"With the rapid growth and popularity of HD video, custom installers
are looking to integrate solutions that satisfy the desire for connectivity
throughout the entire home," said Neal Manowitz, director of marketing for
Sony Electronics' consumer systems and applications division. "The CAV-
CVS12ES adds HD video to the Sony CAV-M1000ES audio system, allowing custom
installers to deliver on the consumer demand for whole house HD
distribution."

the CAV-CVS12ES is a single-box solution that incorporates eight HD
component video inputs (up to 1080p) and four composite video inputs with
up-conversion for flexible device connectivity. High definition video
content is delivered to up to 12 zones through CAT5e wiring, which is fed
into a component adapter connected to the display.
The system also features IR and RS-232, making it ideal for integration
with a variety of control systems. It will be available in September with a
list price of $2,700 and can be purchased through authorized Sony
installation dealers. The CAV-CVB1 Cat5e to component box will also be
