Review Summary
The Aurora Multimedia DXE-CAT 230' Digital xtreme HDMI HDBaseT CAT Extender is part of the growing Digital xtreme Series. This product is different than the typical CAT extender found on the market today as it not only All connectors are on one side to make wiring cleaner and rack mounting easier. Having the ability to power the device breaks the price barrier but the feature and usability aspects as well. with the choice of transmit or receive reduces the installation time and keeps things neat. An industry first is Aurora's exclusive Power-Over-Ethernet circuit, which allows both the transmitter and receiver to be powered without the need of any wall supplies.
Being able to go the distance is important too and HDBaseT technology helps achieve that. With a single CAT cable, the DXE-CAT can go up to 328ft 1080p 60Hz 48bit color depth, 500ft 1080p 60Hz 24bit (CAT 6), or 600ft 1080p 60Hz 24bit (CAT 6A Shielded) depending on model. In addition, the RS-232, IR & LAN can be sent over the same cable bi-directionally. Another industry first is the ability to serve up web pages via LAN to any device with a browser (ex. iPad, iPhone, PC, Android) to take control of the RS-232, IR and LAN. This is done with the Aurora LXC control system engine inside, so not only is the DXE-CAT an HDMI extender, but a full blown autonomous control system that can work stand-alone or as a port expander for any control system on the market.
