WyreStorm EX-1UTP-IR-50-POH extender set is comprised of a transmitter and receiver to achieve reliable transmission of fully uncompressed HD 1080p video and multi-channel audio, bidirectional IR control and remote power of the source and display using only a single Cat 5e/6 cable. The new extender is tested to support 4k Ultra HD transmission up to 35m.

The 50m extender set joins the product range as the most affordable HDBaseT POH extender set solution to date from WyreStorm, achieving full HD and 3D video and HD digital audio over 50m. Several EX-1UTP-IR-50-POH can be cascaded over Cat 5e/6 cable to lengthen the transmission and increase distribution capabilities, making it ideal for residential and light commercial, as well as hospitality and education facility applications.

EX-1UTP-IR-50-POH extender set features PoH technology which eliminates the need for a separate power supply at the TV, resulting in a simpler install as the receiver is powered from the transmitter at the source end. And, thanks to a compact chassis, it can be discretely positions behind a mounted flat panel display or close to the projector. Additional 2-way IR functionality enables integrators and users to control both the source and display with built-in EDID management feature, adding system design flexibility and versatility to any install.

WyreStorm’s EDID feature allows an integrator to choose from one of many internal, pre-set EDID’s to best achieve the specific installation application. For example, achieving 7.1 DTS audio from an AVR becomes quick and easy as the integrator simply sets the EDID on the EX-1UTP-IR-50-POH accordingly and the transmitter requests 7.1 audio directly from the source.
