Extron HDMI 201 A D Tx/Rx, 1920x1200/1080p, 4.95 Gbps, 200 ft Transmis

Extron HDMI 201 A D

The Extron HDMI 201 A D is a decorator-style transmitter and receiver set that enables HDMI or DVI signals to be carried over distances significantly beyond the capability of standard HDMI or DVI cables. In addition, it can accept and transmit stereo audio and RS-232 or IR signals. Linked together using two economical and integration-friendly shielded CATx or Extron STP201 cables, the HDMI 201 A D transmitter and receiver work together to send HDMI or single link DVI-D signals over 200 feet (60 meters) for HDTV and XGA 1024x768.

The HDMI 201 A D offers an ideal, cost-effective means for extending digital video, multi-channel audio, and control signals from HDMI or DVI-equipped devices. The HDCP-compliant HDMI 201 A D enables the long-distance transmission of HDTV signals with HDCP for copy protection of digital television broadcasts and high-resolution digital video output from DTV tuners, DVRs, and Blu-ray Disc players. The HDMI 201 A D is fully compatible with DVI signals when used with the appropriate adapters from Extron.

Several features facilitate convenient, streamlined system integration; the HDMI 201 A D supports transmission of balanced or unbalanced stereo audio signals when a separate audio cable is installed between the transmitter and the receiver. RS-232 or IR signals from a control system can also be transmitted over the same cabling as the HDMI signals, providing remote control of a projector or flat-panel display. An LED indicator provides a quick means of verifying power and signal presence. Additionally, either the transmitter or receiver can be remotely powered over this cabling, so that external power is necessary for only one of the devices.

The HDMI 201 A D can be used with shielded CATx cables to extend 1920x1200 and HDTV 1080p/60 signals up to 100 feet (30 meters). However, when used with Extron STP201 Shielded Digital Twisted Pair Cable, these signals can be extended up to 150 feet (45 meters). Extron STP201 cables are specially designed for superior digital signal transmission performance, featuring an S/FTP design with individually foil-wrapped conductor pairs and overall braided shield for noise immunity and low crosstalk.

Features

Transmits HDMI and control signals over CATx cables — Standard UTP/STP cables provide an economical, easily installed cable solution.
Inputs: HDMI connector, captive screw connector, and two RCA connectors - HDMI 201 A D Tx
Outputs: HDMI connector, captive screw connector, and two RCA connectors - HDMI 201 A D Rx
Sends 720p, 1080i, and XGA (1024x768) signals over 200 feet (60 meters), 1080p/60 and 1920x1200 signals over 100 feet (30 meters) with shielded CATx cable — Extron STP201 Shielded Digital Twisted Pair Cable allows 1080p/60 and 1920x1200 signals to be sent 50% further than with shielded CATx cable.
Extron strongly recommends using individually shielded twisted pair cabling for optimal performance.
HDCP compliant.
Supports EDID and HDCP transmission — DDC channels are actively buffered, allowing pass-through of EDID and HDCP information between source and display.
Extends video, embedded audio, and control signals — The HDMI 201 A D extends digital video, multi-channel audio, and control signals from HDMI-equipped devices.
Transmits additional stereo audio signals — The HDMI 201 A D can send balanced or unbalanced stereo audio signals not embedded within the HDMI signal over a separate audio cable.
Bidirectional RS-232/IR pass-through — Bidirectional RS-232 control or IR signals can be transmitted alongside the video signal, so that the remote display can be controlled without the need for additional cabling.
Remote powering of transmitter or receiver — Only one power supply is necessary to power both devices.
LED indicator for signal presence and power.
Fully supports DVI signals when used with optional Extron DVI-HDMI adapters — Supports the transmission of single link DVI video signals.
Compatible with all HDMI 201, DVI 201, MTP/HDMI U R, and MTP/HDMI U T A D models — Enables mixing and matching of desktop and wallplate transmitters and receivers to meet application requirements.
Mounts in an included decorator-style wallplate — The HDMI 201 A D transmitter and receiver can be installed with a one-gang electrical box or Extron MR 100 Mud Ring, part # 70-519-12.
Includes LockIt® HDMI cable lacing brackets.
Highly reliable, energy-efficient external universal power supply included with Tx models and Tx/Rx sets, replacement part #70-775-01 — Provides worldwide power compatibility, with high demonstrated reliability and low power consumption for reduced operating costs.

Note: The standard HDMI 201 transmitters and receivers do not accommodate separate analog stereo audio signals. The HDMI 201 A D is not compatible with Extron Skew-Free™ twisted pair cable.

HDMI 201 A D Tx/Rx

Note: This product consists of a transmitter (HDMI 201 A D Tx) and a receiver (HDMI 201 A D Rx) with twisted pair cables linking the transmitter and receiver.

Note: Appropriate HDMI to DVI-D cables or adapters are required for DVI signal input/output.
