1. INTRODUCTION
This Transceiver is designed for high-quality AV extension with minimum
latency. Every Transceiver is capable of simultaneous bi-directional
AV extension, enhancing the flexibility of any installation. By using a
sophisticated ultra-light compression scheme (lossless for most content)
it’s a great solution for extending 4K audio/video streams (HDMI or
DisplayPort) and data. Advanced HDMI content such as HDR (High
Dynamic Range), 10-bit colour and multi-channel HD Bitstream audio
can be transmitted in pass-through mode. The use of interchangeable,
field replaceable, SFP+ modules allows for transmission distances of up
to 30km (Maximum transmission distance depends on the SFP+ modules
used). Multiple control and data signals may also be transmitted along
with the audio and video, including IR, RS-232, USB (HID only), and
Ethernet.
The built-in EDID and HDCP management functionality enables the unit
to t into every situation. Basic conguration of the unit can be achieved
via front panel buttons with an OSD (On-Screen Display).

6.6 Basic AV Extension
6.6.1 Point-to-Point (One Way)
The most basic extension configuration is a point-to-point system with
a single transceiver unit acting as a transmitter connected directly to a
single transceiver unit acting as a receiver. In this configuration the HDMI/
DP input on the transmitter side is transmitted to the connected receiver
side without modification to the audio or video format. The analogue
stereo audio input on the transmitter transfers audio directly to the
analogue stereo audio output on the receiver. The LAN, RS-232 and IR
ports form direct connections between transmitter and receiver as well.
This configuration is ideal for basic video extension as well as remote KVM
applications.
Note: This configuration does not use or require an external control center
such as the IP Master Controller to function. No audio insertion/extraction is
performed in this configuration.
6.6.2 Point-to-Point (Bi-directional)
Another basic extension configuration is a bi-directional point-to-point
system with the transceiver units at each end acting as both transmitter
and receiver. In this configuration the HDMI/DP input on each side is
transmitted to the opposite end of the connection for output without
modification to the audio or video format. The analogue audio, LAN, RS-
232 and IR ports form direct connections between both ends as well.
This configuration is ideal for long distance, secure, fixed-point video
conferencing applications.
