The UHBX-SW3 is a kit comprised of a multi-input wall-plate
sender and an HDBaseT receiver. The wall-plate accommodates 2 HDMI and 1
VGA inputs with audio. It also supports MHL (Mobile High-Definition Link) with
phone-charging feature to allow video presentation from a smart-phone using
just a passive cable. The VGA input can also accept YPbPr Component
video. The wall-plate can manually or automatically switch between the various
video inputs and extend the video using HDBaseT™ standard.
To control the power on/off function of the remote display, the wall-plate can
generate RS232 and IR control signals which are extended using the same
Cat 6 cable. Virtually all VGA and HDMI resolutions are supported including 4K
(UHD). 4K video can be extended to 330 ft (100m) while 1080p signals can go as
far as 500 ft (150m). The wall-plate is powered through the same cable from the
receiver using PoH (Power-over-HDBaseT), making installations quick and simple.
A compatible receiver (UHBX-R-PSE) is provided in the kit.
To guarantee proper display of the VGA input, the wall-plate
scales the output to 1080p which is supported by all HDMI TVs. Audio connected
to the 3.5mm input can be extended by itself regardless of VGA input allowing
connection of audio players.
The system can automatically (or manually) control the power
on/off function of the remote display. If a video input is detected, the
wall-plate can automatically issue the desired power on command, and
in the absence of any video input, it can send an off command. The
power commands can be RS232, IR, or CEC depending on the user’s needs. To
select the control method and to upload the commands, a USB port is provided on
the wall-plate for programming using Hall Research’s free Windows® GUI
software. In addition, the wall-plate features an IR detector that can extend
IR signal to the remote receiver. In this way, an IR remote can be pointed to
the wall-plate and its signal will be extended to the TV.
The UHBX-SW3 complies fully with HDBaseT Alliance’s design
specifications and may be connected to displays or projectors with HDBaseT
inputs without the external receiver. In that case, a PoH compliant power
inserter would be needed to power the wall-plate.
