1. Introduction

Designed for 4K and 1080p video transmissions, HBT-5 and HBT-6 form an HDBaseT transmitter/receiver set extending transmission distance to 35 meters for 4K video and 60 meters for 1080p video.

With the 48V power connected to the HBT-6 HDBaseT receiver, the HBT-6 will thus be able to power its counterpart by Power over Ethernet (PoE). On the transmitter end (HBT-5), there is also a 12V/24W DC output serving to supply power to backend devices such as cameras.

Furthermore, the RS-232/RS-422 control protocols allow the user to control devices at the transmitter end from the receiver end.

Features

• Transmits HDMI Deep Color, Full 3D and 4K@30 videos
- Extends video transmission to 60m for 1080p video and 35m for 4K@30 video
- Transmits video, audio, Ethernet control, RS-422/232 and PoE over a single Cat.5e/6/6a/7 cable
- Connect 48V power to the HBT-6 Receiver to enable PoE
• 12V 24W DC output powering connected device from HBT-5
• RS-422/232 Control Protocol supports
- HDCP Compliant
- Pass-through EDID passes signal between the source and the display
• Dolby TrueHD & DTS Master audio support
