Introduction
Overview
The VE802 HDMI HDBaseT-Lite Extender extends an HDBaseT signal up to
70m from the HDBaseT source using one Cat 5e/6 cable. VE802 supports S-
232 and I signaling pass-through, allowing you to control the HDMI source
device from the remote unit (VE802 ) while also granting access to the HDMI
display device from the local unit (VE802T). I signals can also be extended
in both directions. The VE802 features Power over HDBaseT (PoH) which can
send power over Cat 5e/6 cable without an additional power supply. The
VE802 is HDMI (3D, Deep Color,4kx2k) and HDCP compatible. The VE802
is perfect for a digital entertainment center or any installation that requires
superior video quality.
