INTRODUCTION
The EX-57EG-W HDMI2.0 over IP Multicast Transceiver System with Video Wall support & PoE
support boosts up your video/audio transmission distance up to 120m(396ft) in UHD 4K2K format. With cost
effective Ethernet cable, users can readily extend UHD sources from DVD players, Blu-ray Disc player, PS4,
PC, and any other HDMI sources broadcasting to distant display monitors including HDMI or DVI enabled TV
sets or LCD PC monitors. In addition, EX-57EG-W is HDCP compliant, and supports PoE, IR and RS-232
pass-through path.
With broadcasting management software and Gigabit Ethernet network switch (supporting IGMP),
EX-57EG-W is a complete UHD video broadcasting solution for digital signage. It can transmit UHD HDMI
video broadcasting over IP network. The broadcasting format can be Point to Point, Point to Many, and
Multi-Casting. Multi-casting is based on Managed Gigabit Switch with 802.1Q VLAN function which provides
control remotely and so multi video sources are allowed and supported. To provide more flexibilities for
installations, EX-57EG-W can work as either a transmitter or a receiver. By this transceiver feature, we can
bring more possibilities for field applications and verifications.
FEATURES
