Resolution vs. Data rates

• Total data rate is determined essentially by video resolution720p/1080i60 = 2.22Gbps1080p24-2D = 1.78Gbps 1080p24-3D = 3.56Gbps1080p60-2D = 4.45Gbps1080p60-3D = 8.92Gbps4K (2160p) = 8.92-9.52Gbps

Current HDMI device limitations

Data rate potential is limited by silicon in the device Transmitter in source devices Repeater in AVRs & most extenders Receiver in sink devices

Silicon implementation is developed to cater for demands of the day

HDMI connection

Supports up to 5m HDMI cable length at each side

Use only certified High Speed HDMI cables Audio Return Channel supported

* pre-install compatibility test is recommended

Ethernet

Supports 10/100/1000 Mbps Ethernet This system works like a common 6-port Ethernet switch, just with 3 ports at

each end of up to 100m of CAT cable! Remember data is shared with other features.

IR Extender function

3.5mm IR port on both units Connect TX (Transmitter) unit Connect RX (Receiver) unit Some devices may support bi-direction IR

Page 13© Kordz Pty Ltd 2011

RS-232 function

Supports direct pass-through of all RS-232 character encodings, voltage and signalling rates as defined by the EIA

Performs no processing of RS-232 signals, just pure pass-through

Page 14© Kordz Pty Ltd 2011

Beyond 100m

Supports end-to-end full system daisy chaining of (technically) up to 8 systems

Total max. supported length approx 800m

HDBaseT 1.0 Certification Program

“The 1.0 Certification Program provides members with a set standard for ensuring their products are compliant, interoperable and part of an established product ecosystem.”--Ariel Sobelman, HDBaseT Alliance President

Provides formal framework for the growing HDBaseT ecosystem.

Sets the stage for additional certified products to enter the market.

Includes:1. HDBaseT Compliance Test Specification2. Logo guidelines3. First HDBaseT Recognized Test Facility is

now running testing
