
Supports all HDTV resolutions
– 720p, 1080i and 1080p etc. with or without HDCP
encoding. Signals with up to 225 MHz pixel clock frequency -
regardless of the resolution - are passed through.

HDCP compliant
– The HDMI-OPT extenders support HDCP encrypted HDMI signal
transmission.

Cross compatibility with any Lightware Fiber Optical device
– Cross compatibility
between all the devices in the product series is ensured thanks to
Lightware’s attentive design. Any transmitter can be paired with any
receiver without restriction. With Lightware’s hybrid modular matrix
concept, it is even possible to connect an extender box directly to the
matrix router using an MX-HDMI-OPT series input or output board
(MX-HDMI-OPT-IB or MX-HDMI-OPT-OB).

Front panel control
– EDID address selection with two decimal rotary switches and
LEARN button are available for Advanced EDID Management. On the
HDMI-OPT-TX200R and TX100R the BAUD RATE rotary switch
allows selecting the appropriate speed of serial communication.

controllable via the Lightware Matrix Controller PC software.
Advanced EDID Management and firmware upgrades are available.

Advanced EDID Management (TX200R and TX100R)
– The user can emulate any
EDID on the TX200R/TX100R
’s input. TX200R can read out and store
any
display device’s EDID (attached to the local HDMI output, called
MONITOR OUT) in 49 internal memory locations. Green and red
EDID status LEDs show whether a valid address is selected.

Pixel Accurate Reclocking
– (removes jitter caused by long cables) Each output has
a clean, jitter free signal, eliminating signal instability and distortion
caused by long cables or connector reflections.

Bi-directional RS-232 pass-through (TX200R and TX100R)
–
AV systems can also
contain serial port controllers and controlled devices. Serial port pass-
through supports any unit that works with standard RS-232.
