HDBaseT is a connectivity standard for whole-house and commercial distribution of uncompressed HD multimedia content. The cornerstone of HDBaseT™ technology is 5Play™, a feature set that converges:
1. Audio & Video – uncompressed 2K/4K
2. Ethernet – at 100Mb
3. Control (IR, RS-232, CEC, IP)
4. USB 2.0 – KVM, Touchscreen, and USB extension
5. Power – up to 100W DC power
HDBaseT™ delivers 4K Ultra HD, 1080p Full HD, and 3D uncompressed video over long distances much beyond the capability of conventional HDMI. Since the video is passed through the HDMI chipset, HDBaseT™ supports all key HDMI 1.4 features, including CEC, EDID, and HDCP. The unique video coding scheme ensures the highest video quality at zero latency. HDBaseT™ also supports up to 495 feet of extension (on select products), integrated RS-232, and power over the CAT-5 cable for compatible devices.
