Description

GF-EXT-DP4-HBT3 – DisplayPort 1.4 over HDBaseT 3

Professional DisplayPort 1.4 over HDBaseT 3.0 Extension Made Easy

The Gefen DisplayPort 1.4 over HDBaseT 3.0 Extender empowers AV professionals with a powerful solution to transmit ultra-high-resolution DisplayPort signals over a single CAT6A cable. Designed for performance and simplicity, this device supports 8K60 (4:2:0) and 4K120 (4:4:4), ensuring crisp visuals and uncompromised clarity for professional-grade installations.

Whether you’re managing large-scale digital signage or building a robust AV system for a corporate, government, or education environment, this extender delivers stunning video performance over long distances—up to 100 meters (328 feet). Built on the HDBaseT 3.0 platform, it provides increased bandwidth and signal stability for today’s most demanding AV environments.

Native DisplayPort 1.4 over HDBaseT 3.0 for Unmatched Signal Integrity

Unlike systems that convert signals from DisplayPort to HDMI or other formats, this extender preserves native DisplayPort 1.4 transmission. This eliminates latency and quality loss, maintaining full HDR, deep color, and high refresh rates. The extender’s ability to support 8K at 60Hz and 4K at 120Hz makes it ideal for live content, medical imaging, simulation systems, and immersive installations.

Simplified Infrastructure with Power and Control

Installation is straightforward. A single CAT6A cable carries not only DisplayPort 1.4 video but also IR control, RS-232, and Power over Cable (PoC). This means fewer cables, reduced power needs, and faster deployment—perfect for tight installations and rack-mounted systems. Built-in LED indicators show connection status and power at a glance, helping technicians save time during setup.

Engineered for Long-Term Reliability

The rugged metal housing ensures the extender withstands demanding environments. Whether deployed in a data center, production facility, or auditorium, it’s built to last. The compact form factor supports clean integration into existing racks and infrastructure.

Future-Proof DisplayPort 1.4 Extension

As display standards evolve, the DisplayPort 1.4 over HDBaseT 3.0 Extender ensures your AV system is ready for what’s next. It’s a core part of Gefen’s next-gen AV infrastructure portfolio—where high performance meets dependable, integrator-friendly design.
