Latin America. Atlona has expanded its full range of HDMI extension solutions with the introduction of its Advance series of HDBaseT extension kits. Based on the core functionality of the company's established UHD-EX family with additional features that are easy to integrate, the new HDBaseT transmitter and receiver arrays offer cost-effective and reliable solutions to extend 4K/UHD AV signals beyond the distance limitations of HDMI cabling.
The five Avance series kits provide flexible installation options for commercial applications ranging from conference rooms and classrooms to long-distance video distribution. Four transmit 4K/UHD 60Hz 4:2:0 video up to 130 feet (40 meters) or 1080p 60Hz video up to 230 feet (70 meters) via Category 6A/7 twisted pair cable, while the fifth transmits 4K 60Hz 4:2:0 video over longer distances up to 330 feet (100 meters).
The Avance Series line comprises:
- AT-AVA-EX70-2PS-KIT: 40m 4K/UHD extender kit with locally powered transmitter and receiver
- AT-AVA-EX70-KIT: 40m 4K/UHD extender kit with remote power, where the receiver is powered by the transmitter via HDBaseT
- AT-AVA-EX70C-KIT - 40m 4K/UHD extender kit with remote power plus bidirectional extension of RS-232 and IR control signals
- AT-AVA-EX70C-BP-KIT - 40m 4K/UHD extender kit with RS-232 and IR control, and bidirectional remote power that allows power to be supplied by the transmitter or receiver
- AT-AVA-EX100CE-BP-KIT - 100m 4K/UHD extender kit with ethernet, RS-232 and IR control and bidirectional remote power
All Avance Series extension kits include robust features that bolster reliability and simplify deployment for integrators and installers. EDID filtering prevents the extension of unsupported resolutions to increase the integrity of video transmission, while clock lengthening improves interoperability with legacy and low-quality HDMI video sources. The integrated HDBaseT link test enables easy verification of cabling, termination and link quality at the installation point.
A new feature of the Avance series is bidirectional remote power, available on the AVA-EX70C-BP-KIT and AVA-EX100CE-BP-KIT models. It improves the flexibility of the installation by offering the option for the transmitter to feed the receiver or vice versa. This allows the power supply to be located near the source or display, depending on the available outputs.
