Audio & Video Consoles/Extenders

This HDMI® over IP kit lets you extend an HDMI signal, as well as four USB peripheral device connections, over your network. You can use additional receivers (sold separately) to distribute the HDMI and USB signals to multiple locations and combine your remote displays to create a video wall while using the USB connection to extend a touch screen to create an interactive digital signage presentation.

Versatile configuration options

In a point-to-multipoint setup, you can connect the HDMI over IP kit through an unmanaged or managed Gigabit LAN portal. You can also connect one or several sources (transmitters) to multiple displays (receivers) over your network, using a managed Gigabit Ethernet switch with IGMP. For further scalability, you can combine up to 16 different extender kits.

For smaller-scale applications, you can use the extender kit as a point-to-point video extender by connecting the transmitter and receiver units directly over Cat5 or Cat6 cabling for a one-to-one HDMI extension up to 330 feet (100 meters).

Manage your video distribution from your mobile device

This HDMI distribution kit features an easy-to-use video control software app that helps you manage your IP video distribution. The app is simple to set up, with automatic hardware detection, and it lets you switch video sources for each remote display. You can also create and manage a video wall, for an impressive digital signage presentation that's sure to catch your audience's attention.

The software is available on iOS for your iPhone or iPad, and Android™ for your smartphone or tablet.

Professional, cost-effective, simple installation

The HDMI over IP extender kit can be powered using Power over Ethernet to conveniently connect both data and power using an 802.3af PoE switch or injector, avoiding the hassle of external power adapters.

The kit includes optional mounting hardware for a tidy installation. Ideal for high-definition applications, the extender supports 1080p video resolutions and digital stereo audio. Plus, because the extender uses standard non-proprietary Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable with RJ45 connectors, it eliminates both the expense and hassle of running specialized cables.

The extender also features an EDID copy function, which ensures native resolution and maximum compatibility with your display or projector, for a convenient plug-and-play installation.

Note: For best performance, a managed network switch with IGMP is recommended if you are using more than one transmitter, or more than four receivers, Non-managed network switches may also limit the performance of other devices connected to the same network.

The ST12MHDLANU is TAA compliant and backed by a StarTech.com 2-year warranty with free lifetime technical support.

The KanexPro EXT-AVIPH264RX is a DHCP enabled AV over IP receiver with HDMI output to display and Ethernet. This receiver over IP uses advanced H.264 compression algorithm to transmit full HD 1080p from HDMI based displays with less bandwidth over LAN network. It supports PoE (power over Ethernet) with distances over a single CATx up to 394 ft. (120m) delivering one to one, one to many and many to many over the Ethernet switch.

Applications:

Ideal for digital signage and networked AV applications where full HD 1080p can be passed over IP network delivering full audio, video, power, data and control using a single Ethernet cable.

Please note: Power over Ethernet will be supported only with a PoE enabled network switch.

The ComNet FVT/FVR200D8 series video transmitter/data transceiver and video receiver/data transceiver series utilize 10-bit digital encoding and decoding for high-quality video transmission that exceeds the requirements of EIA RS-250C for short-haul video transmission. These environmentally hardened units provide transmission of 20 independent video channels and eight bi-directional data channels over one optical fiber and are ideal for use in unconditioned roadside or out-of-plant installations. These units are completely transparent to and universally compatible with any NTSC, PAL, or SECAM CCTV camera systems, data channels can be set independently for RS232, RS422 and 2 or 4-wire RS485, Sensornet, Bi-phase and Manchester.

The ComNet™ FVT/FVR(X)MI[/M] features an HDMI™ fiber link for uncompressed high-resolution bi-directional communication with full HDCP copyright protection, EDID and CEC connection functionality. The high-resolution signal is transmitted over one multimode fiber using multiple wavelengths up to 1000m. Resolutions of up to 1080p60 are supported. HDCP encryption is not affected or compromised by the FVT/FVR(X)MI units. The FVT/FVR(X)MI[/M] transmits pixel-for-pixel images and full 24-bit scan rate with no contouring or bit reduction. This unit is fully compatible with HDMI™ compliant sources and monitors, supporting all possible horizontal and vertical sync configurations. The CEC support provided by these units allows the user to communicate with up to ten CEC-enabled devices connected via HDMI™. The FVT/FVR(X)MI[/M] transmits up to 8 channels of uncompressed audio at sample sizes of 16-bit, 20-bit and 24-bit, with sampling rates of 32 kHz, 44.1 kHz, 48 kHz, 88.2 kHz, 96 kHz, 176.4 kHz and 192 kHz. This series also supports any IEC 61937-compliant compressed audio stream, such as Dolby Digital and DTS , and up to 8 channels of one-bit DSD audio, as used on SA CD/Super Audio CDs, and at rates up to four times that of Super Audio CD, and lossless compressed audio streams such as Dolby True HD and DTS -HD Master Audio. A locking screw prevents the connectors from accidental disconnection. Packaged in either a small stand-alone housing or the exclusive ComNet ComFit housing, the FVT/FVR(X)MI standard size product may be either wall or rack-mounted, or may be DIN-rail mounted by the addition of ComNet model DINBKT1 adaptor plate.
