DIGITUS DS-55508 4K HDBaseT HDMI Extender Set 150 m

Introduction

The HDBaseT™ HDMI Extender Set enables uncompressed, high-resolution signal transmission over large distances using a simple copper data cable. The maximum transmission distance is 150 m (Full HD). 4K signals can be extended to up to 120 m. Thanks to PoC, only one unit needs to be supplied with power by an external power adapter. RS232 and bi-directional IR transmission are also included as features. Thanks to an HDMI loop-out to the transmitter unit, a local monitor can be connected in order to control the output to the receiver.
