AVPro Edge AC-EX100-444-KIT 100M 18Gbps HDBaseT Extender Kit

The AVPro Edge AC-EX100-444-KIT is an 18Gbps HDBaseT extender kit designed to send 4K video and audio over category cabling for long distance AV distribution. It is built for commercial and residential installs that need reliable 4K extension with HDR support. Use it to place sources and equipment in a rack while delivering a clean HDMI signal to a remote display.

This kit is HDBaseT Spec 3.0 compliant and supports HDMI 2.0 plus HDCP 2.3 for protected content workflows. It features an 18Gbps Bandwidth-Adaptable Output Configuration that supports uncompressed transport or selectable compression using AVPro Edge Invisible Compression Technology. The platform also supports eARC for return audio applications.

For demanding system deployments, the kit includes downscaling capability to rescale UHD 4K including HDR signals to 1080P when needed. Configurable, bidirectional control options for IR and RS-232 help simplify integration in distributed AV systems. Onboard troubleshooting tools support faster verification during installation and service.
