Introduction

Overview

The ATEN VE1901AEUT / VE1901AUST DisplayPort HDBaseT-Lite transmitter delivers 4K signals up to 40 m over a single Cat 5e/6/6a or ATEN 2L-2910 Cat 6 cable, ensuring users to stabilize DisplayPort signal transmission with support of Deep color and embedded HD lossless audio formats. During high-quality video transmission, the transmitter can resist signal interference with the equipped HDBaseT Anti-jamming technology and offer a reliable signal extension.
The VE1901AEUT / VE1901AUST can be easily mounted in a 1-gang junction box with EU / US wall plate, concealing bulky cable setups and presenting needed information in sight. In addition, with built-in PoH (Power over HDBaseT) function, the VE1901AEUT / VE1901AUST receives power supply from a connected PoH PSE supported receiver and streamlines complex power line deployment.
With the share function, the VE1901AEUT / VE1901AUST can remotely switch source when connecting to a compatible receiver, e.g., VP1421, bringing users for more convenient AV extension. This compact transmitter provides a neat and simple installation on walls or tables, enabling users to elegantly immerse their AV applications into any environment. Therefore, the VE1901AEUT / VE1901AUST is ideal for use in meeting rooms, digital educational environments or any application requiring stable high-quality transmission and effortless installation.
