INTRODUCTION

FEATURES

The HDEXT1-4KHDR 4K-HDR HDMI Extender over Single CAT5/5e/6 with HDBaseT-Lite, RS-232,

Bid-directional IR &PoC boosts up your video/audio transmission distance to 60m (198ft) in HDTV 1080p with

48-bit color depth and 35m (114ft) at 4K-HDR. HDEXT1-4KHDR has new generation technology which makes

sure the HDBaseT extender can support HDMI2.0a and HDC2.2. HDEXT1-4KHDR also supports the most

advanced 3D video format complaint with HDMI specification and therefore guarantees the highest 3D video

compatibility on the market. With only one cost-effective CAT5/5e/6 cable, users can readily extend HDTV sources

from DVD players, Blu-ray Disc players, PS4, PC and any other kinds of sources compliant with TMDS to distant

display monitors including HDMI or DVI enabled TV sets or LCD PC monitors. With the advanced design for the

latest HDMI technology, deep color video, DTS-HD or Dolby TrueHD audio, and HDCP supports and compatibility

are all further insured. HDEX1-4KHDR is also equipped with bi-directional IR pass-through path and RS-232 serial

port control. These bonus features allow users to boost RS-232 and IR control distance up to 60m (198ft) through

only single CAT5/5e/6 cable with HDMI signals. In addition, HDEXT1-4KHDR also supports PoC (Power over

Cable) which canpower both units from either TX or RX with power supply.

The HDEXT1-4KHDR includes two units: transmitting unit HDEXT1-4KHDR-TX and receiving unit

HDEXT1-4KHDR-RX. The transmitting unit is used to capture the input HDMI / DVI signals with IR control packets

and carry the signals via one cost effective CAT5/5e/6 cable. The receiving unit is responsible for equalizing the

transmitted HDMI signal and reconstructing IR and serial control signals. HDEXT1-4KHDR offers the most

convenient solution for digital signage with long distance A/V transmission path.

* HDR = High Dynamic Range

** The video bandwidth of 4K2K@60 4:2:0 10bits (HDR) is 384 MHz, and the 4K2K@60 4:4:4

8bits is 594MHz.

The length depends on the characteristics and quality of the cables. Higher resolutions and

longer transmission distances require low skew cables (<25ns/100m) for best performance.

Unshielded CAT6 with metal RJ45 connectors is recommended.

Incorrect placement of IR Blaster and Receiver may result in the failure of the IR extenders.

Please check carefully before plugging in the IR extender to the respective IR sockets. Warranty

will not cover the damage.

You can buy any IR extension cables in the market that are compatible to the definition of the IR

sockets for the extender if necessary for replacement use. However, IR cables longer than 2m

(6ft) may not work.

1. Connect a HDMI or DVI source (such as a Blu-ray Disc player) to the transmitting unit HDEXT1-4KHDR-TX

2. Connect a HDMI or DVI display (such as a LCD TV) to the receiving unit HDEXT1-4KHDR-RX

3. Connect IR Blaster/Receiver to both TX and RX units.

4. Connect a Cat-5/5e/6 cable between the transmitting and receiving units.

5. Make sure this Cat-5/5e/6 cable is tightly connected.

6. Plug in 12V DC power supply unit to the power jack of the receiving unit HDEXT1-4KHDR-RX or the

HDMI PIN DEFINITION

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

1. All HDMI over CAT5 transmission distances are measured using Belden 1583A CAT5e 125MHz UTP

cable and ASTRODESIGN Video Signal Generator VG-859C & VG-870B.

2. Incorrect placement of IR Blaster and Receiver may result in the failure of the IR extenders. Please

check carefully before plugging in the IR extender to the respective IR sockets. Warranty will not cover

the damage.

3. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of Cat-5/5e/6 cables, the type of HDMI sources,

and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid UTP cables (usually in the form of 300m

[1,000ft] bulk cables) can transmit a lot longer signals than stranded UTP cables (usually in the form of

fixed length patch cords). Shielded STP cables are better suited than unshielded UTP cables. A solid

UTP Cat-5e cable shows longer transmission range than stranded STP Cat-6 cable. For long

extension applications, solid UTP/STP cables are the only viable choice.

4. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for Cat-5/5e/6 cables is recommended for better performance.

5. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in Cat-5/5e/6 cable, one can

use shielded STP cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long transmission.

6. Because the quality of the CAT5/6 cables has the major effect on how long the transmission limit can

achieve and how good is the received picture quality, the actual transmission range is subject to one’s

choice of Cat-5/5e/6 cables. For desired resolutions greater than 1080i or 1280x1024, a Cat-6 cable is

recommended.

7. If your HDMI display has multiple HDMI inputs, it is found that the first HDMI input [HDMI input #1]

generally can produce better transmission performance among all HDMI inputs.
