NTI HDMI OVER IP EXTENDER

INTRODUCTION

The XTENDEX® Low-Cost HDMI Over IP Extender multicasts digital video and audio signals to one or more receivers up to 330
feet away using CAT5e/6 (CATx)cable.

Each Low-Cost HDMI Over IP Extender consists of a local unit (transmitter) that connects to an HDMI source, and a remote unit
(receiver) that connects to an HDMI display. The local and remote units can be connected together for a Point-to-Point or Point –
to-Many connection through a network switch. Support for multiple local units requires a managed network switch.

• Supports HDTV resolutions to 1080p and computer resolutions to 1920x1200.

• Ideal solution for digital signage applications.

• Broadcast real-time HDMI video/audio to multiple display locations.

• Transmits an HDMI signal over one CAT5e/6 cable.

• Plug-and-Play installation allows receivers to find the transmitters automatically on the same subnet. (Network

configuration may be required for managed network switch.)

• Web interface for changing IP addresses, firmware updates and resetting units to factory default settings.

• Easily expandable. Add remote units as you add monitors.

• Inexpensive CAT5e/6 cable replaces bulky video cables.

• Supports 10/100 Ethernet connection.

• Built in default EDID table.

• HDCP compliant.

• Support for multiple transmitters requires a managed network switch with VLAN/IGMP support. Standard LAN switches

can only support one transmitter.

o The managed switch must support port based IEEE 802.1Q VLAN, IGMP, and permit duplicate IP addresses

across the VLAN domains.

o Each VLAN acts as a separate HDMI Over IP Channel on the network.
o Number of local and remote units that can be used is dependent on the backplane bandwidth of the switch.
o Cascade managed switches up to 3 levels, allowing the farthest display to be located up to 1,000 feet away

from the source device. Each receiver can be located up to 330 feet away.

• Uses M-JPEG technology to process image compression on a fixed bandwidth.

o Note: at high resolutions, characters on PCs get noticeably fuzzy due to image compression and

decompression process.
