XTENDEX® ST-IPHD-LC

Dorset, UK: Network Technologies Inc (NTI) announces the addition of the Low-Cost HDMI Over IP Extender that multicasts digital video and audio signals to one or more receivers up to 100 meters away using CAT5/5e/6 cable.

Each ST-IPHD-LC Low-Cost HDMI Over IP Extender consists of a local unit that connects to an HDMI source and a remote unit that connects to an HDMI display. The local and remote units can be connected together for a Point-to-Point connection, or through VLAN isolation on a managed network switch for a Point-to-Many connection. Easily expandable, individual remote units can be purchased and connected to additional monitors.

Supporting HDTV resolutions to 1080p and computer resolutions to 1920x1200, the Low-Cost HDMI extender can transmit an HDMI signal over one CAT5/5e/6 cable up to 100 meters away. Plug-and-Play installation allows receivers to find the transmitters automatically on the same subnet for easy set up. Users can access the web interface to change the IP addresses of units, update firmware, and reset units to factory default settings. M-JPEG technology is used to process image compression on a fixed bandwidth. The extender supports 10/100 Ethernet connection, has a built-in default EDID table, and is HDCP compliant.

The Low-Cost HDMI Over IP Extender provides an ideal solution for digital signage applications as it can broadcast real-time HDMI video/audio to multiple display locations. Support for multiple transmitters requires a managed network switch with VLAN/IGMP support. Each VLAN acts as a separate HDMI Over IP Channel on the network. Manage switches can be cascaded up to three levels, allowing the farthest display to be located up to 305 meters away from the source device.

Available for immediate sale, the Low-Cost HDMI Over IP Extender can be purchased as a set of both local and remote units, and as individual remote units for connecting additional monitors.
