The extender was designed to handle HDMI1.4 digital video, embedded audio and control signals. The HDMI-TPS-TX210 handles HDCP encryption. Using the factory, custom or transparent EDID emulation the user can fix and lock EDID data on each input connector. Advanced EDID Management forces the required resolution from any video source and fixes the output format to conformto the system requirements. The unit offers bi-directional and transparent IR, RS232 and Ethernet transmission. Furthermore the RS232 and IR connection supports command injection. Remote powering is available through the single CAT 5e ... CAT 7 cable, but a local power supply can also be used. All devices can be mounted on a rack shelf or used in standalone formats. Due to Lightware’s attentive design the HDMI-TPS-TX210 is compatible with both the HDBaseT extenders and matrix switchers.
