This 4K 18 Gb/s HDMI Extender with Bidirectional IR/POC/ARC & Audio De-Embedding from BZBGear functions as an 18 Gb/s HDMI extender, facilitating the transmission of HDMI and IR control signals over a considerable distance of up to 230’ over a single Cat 6/6a cable. This extender ensures uncompressed, zero-delay transmission and adheres to HDMI 2.0b and HDCP 2.2 standards, guaranteeing content protection. Featuring bidirectional IR and power over cable (PoC), only one unit in the pair requires a power supply.
The utilization of IR blaster and receiver cables enables the control of devices at both ends of the system, simplifying the installation process. The pass-through of EDID between the source and display devices contributes to optimal signal quality. Video resolution of up to 4K2K60 4:4:4 is supported, offering vibrant colors through multiple HDR formats, including HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG. The receiver extracts LPCM 5.1, Dolby True HD, and DTS HD Master formats from the ARC connection on a display to its TOSLINK port.
