1. INTRODUCTION
This UHD HDMI/DP to IP AV over IP Transceiver forms a part of a multi-
function video and data extension system. Every Transceiver can be
configured to function as either a transmitter or a receiver, enhancing the
flexibility of any installation. Both HDMI and DisplayPort video inputs are
provided with support for resolutions up to 4K (4K@30Hz 4:4:4 or 4K@60Hz
4:2:0) along with analog audio, USB 2.0, IR and serial data extension using
the TCP/IP protocol over regular Gigabit Ethernet networks (Cat.5e/6/7
copper or single/multi-mode fiber). When using standard Ethernet cables,
this transceiver supports the extension of AVoIP signals up to 100 meters
and the extension distance can be further extended (up to 100m per
segment) by using gigabit network switches. This allows the user to cascade
the system without signal loss or introducing delay. Alternatively, when using
the SFP port and fiber cable, a single segment can be up to 2km (maximum
distance depends on the fiber module and fiber type used).
When the extension system's units are in multicast mode, a single AV signal
can be sent to a large number of receivers within the same local network
without the additional receivers increasing the bandwidth requirements.
Additionally, that same multicast signal can be used to create large multi-
display video walls with amazing simplicity. When combined with the optional
IP Master Controller the functionality of the system expands exponentially. Its
centralized web-based interface greatly simplifies control and management
of large distributed video matrix or video wall systems adding to their
flexibility in large home or commercial installations.
The included Detection trigger in/out terminal block allows trigger signaling
from detection devices such as smoke/gas detectors or door buzzers to be
extended to your home control system. Configuration information is provided
via On Screen Display (OSD) and control is by front panel controls, WebGUI,
RS-232, and Telnet.
