PT-HDBT-150 – HDBaseT 18Gbps Extender Set: Long-Range 4K Video, Audio and Control Signal Transmission
The PT-HDBT-150 HDBaseT extender set provides a complete signal path for uncompressed 4K video, multi-channel audio, and bidirectional control data via a single Cat.5e/6 cable. Designed for professional AV environments, the system features both HDMI and USB inputs, supporting flexible source integration. The transmitter incorporates a local HDMI loop output, while the receiver delivers de-embedded stereo audio for direct audio extraction. Typical applications include meeting rooms, signage, control rooms, and hybrid workspaces where long-distance, high-bandwidth extension and unified control are required. Compact construction and Power over Cable (PoC) functionality enable streamlined installation in rack, ceiling, or wall-mount scenarios.

• 18Gbps Video Bandwidth Support: Full HDMI 2.0 signal path transmits 4K 60Hz (4:4:4) content with HDCP 2.2 / 1.4 and DVI 1.0 compliance. The extender maintains uncompressed video integrity across the entire link, supporting HDR, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG formats for advanced display requirements.

• Long-Range Cat. Cable Transmission: Signal extension reaches up to 120 metres for 4K sources and 150 metres for 1080p over a single Cat.5e/6 cable. This topology reduces cable bulk and simplifies installation in large-scale AV deployments.

• HDMI Loop Output and Audio Extraction: The transmitter provides a local HDMI loop-through for monitoring or secondary display integration. The receiver features de-embedded stereo audio output, enabling direct connection to audio systems without additional hardware.

• Bidirectional Control Signal Pass-Through: Integrated support for IR, RS-232, and CEC allows unified device management. Control signals pass in both directions, enabling remote operation of source and display devices from either endpoint.

• Compact Design with Power over Cable: Professional-grade housing and PoC capability permit flexible mounting and reduce the need for local power supplies. The system operates reliably in space-constrained installations and simplifies power distribution.

Technical Solution for Unified AV Signal Extension
The PT-HDBT-150 addresses core AV extension challenges by combining high-bandwidth video, audio de-embedding, and multi-protocol control in a single, long-range HDBaseT link. Its compact form factor, PoC support, and comprehensive signal compatibility facilitate reliable integration across diverse professional AV environments, supporting both modern and legacy devices without excess cabling or external power requirements.
