1.0 INTRODUCTION
DVIGear’s DVI-7520 and DVI-7525 utilize HDBaseT™ technology to provide a
simple and cost-effective solution for extension of uncompressed HDMI or DVI,
embedded audio, bidirectional IR, RS-232 and Ethernet (DVI-7525 only) using a
single twisted pair CAT-X cable.
These extenders support the full range of HDBaseT features, including support for
4K /30p (UHD) resolution, bidirectional IR, POH (Power over HDBaseT) and long-
range operation. They support extension of HDMI signals with 1080p resolution
up to 330 ft. (~ 100 meters) and 4K (UHD) resolution up to 230 ft. (~ 70 meters).
Today there are many HDBaseT products that utilize non-standard implementations
of power over the HDBaseT link. This problem has created interoperability
challenges for system integrators who are faced with HDBaseT products that
do not work with each other or, in some cases, cause equipment failures. To
solve this problem, DVIGear’s DVI-7520 and DVI-7525 include a fully-compliant
implementation of Power over HDBaseT (POH), a key component of the
HDBaseT standard.
Our digital video distribution products have been serving the professional AV
industry for more than fifteen (15) years. Today, DVIGear offers a full range
of high performance products including: scalable AV-Over-10GbE Systems,
Switchers, Splitters, Scalers, Up/Down/Cross-Converters, Format Converters,
as well as a wide range of long-reach Digital Cables, Extenders, and Fiber Optic
Transmission systems.
