INTRODUCTION
The AVP-57FC-U HDMI 2.0 over IP Multicast Transceiver System with Bi-directional IR, RS-232,
Audio Extender/Extractor, USB 2.0 & Video Wall Support boosts up your video/audio transmission
distance up to 100m(330ft)**[over copper] or 300m (990ft) (OM3) / 400m (1320ft) (OM4)[over fiber] in
Ultra-HD 4K2K@60(4:4:4) format. Users can readily extend Ultra-HD sources from Blu-ray Disc player,
PS4, PC, and any other HDMI sources to distant display / monitor, including HDMI or DVI enabled TV sets
or LCD PC monitors. Besides AVP-57FC-U is HDCP compliant, moreover it supports IR & RS-232 pass-
through, audio extender/extractor, video wall and multi-view.
