INTRODUCTION

Atlona Technologies’ new AT-HDF30S (Transmitter) and AT-HDF30R ( Receiver ) units are low cost, Fi-
ber Optic HDMI baluns. This extremely small and high performance solution will carry HDMI audio/video
signal, bi-directional stereo audio and 2 channels of RS-232 through one multimode ber. This Mini-HDMI
ber optic transmitter allows any HD video source to extend signal up to 400m at WUXGA (1920x1200 @
60Hz) and supports HDTV resolution up 1080p. Multiple signals can run through a single conduit without
crosstalk or interference . Along with being HDCP compliant, this unit is capable of transmitting DVI video
signal with an Atlona DVI-to-HDMI adapter.
Atlona’s AT-HDF30SR is equipped with advanced digital ber optic technology allowing for self adjust-
ment with no com¬pression, bit reduction, or signal degradation. These units support 12-bit color depth
and have an 8dB input equalizer, which compensates losses over 5m (16ft). With this self-adjustment and
no power cord needed, quick and easy set up is as simple as plug and play.
The AT-HDF30S is compatible with other Atlona products including the AT-DVIF30R and AT-RGBF30R
(for non HDCP signal only ). Using one of these units on the receiver end will not only transmit signal, but
also convert from HDMI-to-RGB/YPbPr/DVI in a single setup. This extension kit is the perfect solution for
Video Wall Presentations and all Digital Signage applications due to its long range, conversion ability, and
lossless signal transmission.

level source. On the HDF30SR, connect the other end of the cables to the front panel terminal block
connectors labeled “AUDIO IN”. For stereo channels, be sure to match the cables at both ends (L to L,
R to R).
When RECEIVING the audio signal, label and connect two twisted-pair cables to the “AUDIO INPUT”
connectors of the line level audio receiver. On the AT-HDF30SR, connect the other end of the cables to
the front panel terminal connectors labeled “AUDIO OUT”. If using stereo channels, be sure to match
the cables at both ends (L to L, R to R).
