1.0 Introduction
This manual covers a few of the UHBX series of HDMI extenders by Hall
Research. These products are comprised of individual sender and receiver
modules that can send HDMI, bidirectional IR, full-duplex RS232, and PoH
(power over HDBaseT) over distances of up to 150 meters (500 feet) using a
single Cat6 cable.
The products can extend HDMI or single-link DVI video of virtually any
resolution, to a maximum distance of 500 ft (150 m). Two user selectable
distance modes are available: Standard and Long Reach. These modes are
explained further in section 4.4 of this manual.
The extenders comply with Power-over-HDBaseT or PoH, hence only one
end requires a power supply. The end identified as PSE (power sourcing
equipment) injects power on to the Cat6 cable and the side identified as PD
(powered device) is powered through the Cat6 cable.
The PSE side requires connection of an AC adapter that supplies 5v DC,
while the PD side is simply powered through the RJ45 connector from the
opposite side.
Senders and Receivers are available in both PSE and PD versions. Prior to
placing an order, it is important to determine which scenario works best for a
given setup since the direction of power flow is determined by the model
numbers ordered and cannot be reversed in the field.
