1. INTRODUCTION
Transmitter
This HDMI to HDMI/HDBaseT Scaling Transmitter can send
uncompressed audio/video along with control, Ethernet, and extra
audio data over a single run of Cat.5e/6/7 cable up to 100m. Both
the HDMI input and local HDMI output support video signals up to
4K@60Hz (4:4:4, 8-bit). For transmission over the HDBaseT output the
signal can be converted to 4K@60Hz (4:2:0, 8-bit) or 1080p@60Hz, if
necessary, in order to t within HDBaseT bandwidth limitations. Simple
18Gbps HDMI test patterns are also available to be output. Control of
remote devices is possible via bi-directional RS-232 or IR as well as via
a LAN connection. A balanced analog audio output provides users
with additional audio exibility. The 48V PoH design can power the
connected Receiver (PD), eliminating the need for an extra power
supply while the Transmitter itself is powered through the local 24V
power supply.
Receiver
This HDBaseT to Dual HDMI Scaling Receiver can receive
uncompressed audio/video along with control, Ethernet, and extra
audio data over a single run of Cat.5e/6/7 cable up to 100m. While
the HDBaseT input is limited to a maximum of 4K@60Hz (4:2:0, 8-bit),
this unit can automatically convert or scale the input to output at
4K@60Hz (4:4:4, 8-bit) depending on the detected capability of
the connected display. Simple 18Gbps HDMI test patterns are also
available to be output for easy testing of local equipment. Control
of remote devices is possible via bi-directional RS-232 or IR as well as
via a LAN connection. Digital OAR (Optical Audio Return) support
at 48kHz and a balanced analog audio output provides users with
additional audio exibility. The 48V PoH design can receive power
from the connected Transmitter (PSE), eliminating the need for a local
power supply, however power via 5V power supply is also supported if
needed.

4. SYSTEM REQUIREMENTS
• HDMI source equipment such as media players, video game
consoles or set-top boxes.
• HDMI receiving equipment such as HDTVs, monitors or audio
ampliers.
• Transmitter requires a compatible HDBaseT™ receiver with 48V PoH
support. An HDBaseT™ receiver equipped with Optical Audio Return
(OAR) channel support are strongly recommended.
• Receiver requires a compatible HDBaseT™ transmitter as a
video source. An HDBaseT™ transmitter equipped with Optical
Audio Return (OAR) channel support and 48V PoH is strongly
recommended.
Notes:
• When displaying 4K HDR, or an equivalent signal, an appropriate
display is required in order to obtain the best image.
• HDMI cable distance can be impacted by the materials and design
of the cable used. The use of “Premium High Speed HDMI” cables is
highly recommended.
