Gefen 4K Ultra HD HDBaseT Extender with 2-Way IR & Bidirectional POL

When seeking a robust solution for extending high-definition signals in professional or home theater setups, the GTB-UHD-HBTL 4K Ultra HD Extender by Gefen is a top-tier choice. This advanced HDBaseT extender is engineered to transmit HDMI signals up to 230 feet (70 meters) at 1080p Full HD and up to 130 feet (40 meters) at 4K Ultra HD resolutions, using a single CAT-5e or superior cable. With support for resolutions up to 4K Ultra HD (3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz 4:2:0), this extender delivers crystal-clear images and supports 7.1 channels of HBR (High Bit Rate) lossless digital audio, ensuring an immersive audio-visual experience.

The GTB-UHD-HBTL is equipped with innovative 2-way IR extension capabilities, allowing seamless control of A/V sources near the Sender unit and enabling the transmission of automation commands to devices located near the Receiver unit. This feature is particularly useful for managing entertainment systems or presentation setups from a distance.

Gefen's reliable Bi-Directional POL (Power Over Line) technology is a standout feature, providing power to either the Sender or the Receiver unit through the same cable that extends the HDMI signal. This simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a power supply at both ends, which is especially beneficial in situations where power outlets are scarce or inconveniently located.

Designed with a durable and low-profile enclosure, the GTB-UHD-HBTL can be securely surface-mounted and discreetly concealed, maintaining a clean and professional appearance in any environment. For optimal performance, shielded (STP) CAT-5e or CAT-6A cables are recommended to minimize the risk of electromagnetic interference, which can affect signal quality.

Furthermore, this high-quality extender supports a range of HDMI features, including HDMI 2.0, HDCP 2.2 and 1.4, 12-bit Deep Color, and various audio formats such as LPCM 7.1, Dolby Atmos, Dolby TrueHD, DTS:X, and DTS-HD Master Audio pass-through. It also accommodates 3DTV, CEC, and Lip Sync pass-through, making it a versatile and comprehensive solution for extending HDMI, RS-232, and Bi-Directional IR signals.

Please note that while this product supports sources up to 4K 300 MHz (60 Hz 4:2:0 or 30 Hz 4:4:4), it is not compatible with HDR or 4K 600 MHz (60 Hz 4:4:4) sources. This ensures that users are aware of the extender's capabilities and can select sources accordingly for optimal compatibility and performance.

In summary, the GTB-UHD-HBTL 4K Ultra HD Extender is an innovative, reliable, and high-quality choice for anyone looking to extend their HDMI, IR, and PoE signals with minimal quality loss, making it an ideal solution for both commercial and residential applications.
