Introduction

The HUE-100 HDMI and USB-C HDBaseT 3.0 extension system offers full HDMI 2.0b, HDR/HDR10/HDR10+ (High Dynamic Range) 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 up to 100 meters on CAT6a/7 cable. The HUE-100 can also transport 1080P60 8 bit up to 150 meters over CAT6a/7 cable. Manual or automatic selection of HDMI and USB-C inputs is available on front panel controls and API. User defined EDID and extraction of display EDID are easy operations using the HUE-100 simple API.

The HUE-100 provides Dolby Vision, HLG, multi-channel audio, CEC pass-through, bi-directional RS-232 and IR control, and PoC – all with zero loss and zero noise. The HUE-100 also supports Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master Audio plus LCPM. Additionally, the low profile “slim box” enclosure design makes the HUE-100 ideal for limited space installation environments, such as behind flat panel displays and video walls.
