Introduction

Overview

The VE802 HDMI HDBaseT-Lite Extender extends an HDBaseT signal up to 70m from the HDBaseT source using one Cat 5e/6 cable. VE802 supports RS­232 and IR signaling pass-through, allowing you to control the HDMI source device from the remote unit (VE802R) while also granting access to the HDMI display device from the local unit (VE802T). IR signals can also be extended in both directions. The VE802 features Power over HDBaseT (POH) which can send power over Cat 5e/6 cable without an additional power supply. The VE802 is HDMI (3D, Deep Color,4kx2k) and HDCP compatible. The VE802 is perfect for a digital entertainment center or any installation that requires superior video quality.
