PRO88HBT70CS
Custom Pro 8×8 HDBaseT™ CSC Matrix

Description

Our 70m Custom Pro 8×8 HDBaseT™ CSC Matrix offers unprecedented 4K HDR performance for the custom installation market. The PRO88HBT70CS is an HDMI 2.0 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 HDCP 2.2 Matrix utilizing CSC technology to deliver HDMI, Bi-directional IR, PoH (PoE) up to lengths of 70m over a single CAT cable (4K HDR up to 40m) with independent down-scaling of 4K video inputs on the CSC HDBaseT™ outputs to allow displays only capable of supporting lower video resolutions to receive 4K video while still showing maximum original 4K UHD resolution on the higher-definition displays.
The Matrix also provides advanced features including 4 x simultaneous HDMI outputs, audio breakout with line level pre amp volume control, and a web browser interface module for control and configuration of the matrix.

Colour Space Conversion (CSC) Technology in HDBaseT™

Due to the data rate of HDBaseT™ technology being capped at 10.2Gbps, it is unable to pass the latest native 4K UHD resolutions of 4K 60Hz 4:4:4. There is now a requirement to integrate video resolutions with data speeds up to 18Gbps across a multi-zone AV environment. Blustream has implemented CSC (Colour Space Conversion) technology into our latest products to ensure 4K HDR signals can now be supported over the 10.2Gbps infrastructure of HDBaseT™.
Colour Space Conversion reduces the data rate of the HDMI signal by converting the colour space (or Wide Colour Gamut) from 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 to a lower format. Within Colour Space Conversion technology the native resolution, frame rate and colour depth all remain constant from end to end. The only part of the signal that is converted during transmission is the colour gamut.
Blustream CSC products do not support HDR10+ or Dolby Vision due to the way these specific variations of HDR are encoded. These codecs transmit repeated metadata packets throughout the transmission of any media making it impossible at this stage to convert in the same way using CSC technology.
