Eaton Transmits Scalable 4K 60 Hz

Transmits Scalable 4K @ 60 Hz Audio/Video for Pro AV and IT Applications. This IP encoder/transmitter switches smoothly between 4K HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C input signals and transmits them to one or multiple compatible decoders (sold separately) placed up to 328 feet (100 meters) away using Cat5e/6 cabling. You can effortlessly switch back and forth between inputs using push buttons on the encoder or the included IR remote. This enables everything from simple point-to-point extension across a classroom or multi-display distribution for lecture halls, boardrooms, medical facilities, retail settings and other mixed source environments. Regulate Your AV over IP Installs with HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C Support. You can create a universal AVoIP solution by converting a local AV source into a TCP/IP stream for transport over standard Cat5e/6 cabling to B163-100 decoders or through an IGMP-capable managed switch. The B163-001 stands out by supporting HDMI, DisplayPort and USB-C inputs, allowing integrators and IT teams to standardize one AV-over-IP platform for a variety of different sources. Laptops, media players, workstations and collaboration devices can all be connected without adapters or separate encoders.& nbsp; Visually Lossless Compression and Ultra-Low Latency Designed for demanding 4K environments, the B163-Series supports visually loss less compression (x18–x20), approximately 800 Mbps video bitrate and 2 ms latency at 2160p, preserving image fidelity for detailed content, fast motion and interactive use cases. Supported HDMI 2.1 features include HDR10 and Dolby Vision, HDCP 2.3, 12-bit color, RGB/4:4:4/4:4:2 chroma and 3D video, with backward compatibility for HDCP 2.2/1.4 display chains. A local HDMI port lets you monitor content at the encoder location without splitting the signal externally, which is ideal for rack rooms, control rooms or troubleshooting during setup.Unicast or Multicast Flexibility Pair the B163-001 encoder to a single B163-100 decoder in unicast (1-to-1) mode using channel selection and SET handshake. Alternatively, stream content from one B163-001 encoder to multiple B163-100 decoders across a managed network in broadcast/multicast (1-to-many over a managed network switch) for campus-wide distribution.Note: B163-100 decoders are sold separately. Enable IGMP snooping/querier to prevent multicast flooding. Integrated Control Extension The encoder can extend control methods including USB (via Micro-USB host connection for keyboard, mouse and peripherals), RS-232 for device and system control and bi-directional IR for remote source and display operation. This makes the B163-Series suitable for KVM-style workflows, control rooms and automation-driven AV installations. TAA-Compliant for GSA Schedule Purchases. The B163-001 is compliant with the Federal Trade Agreements Act (TAA), which makes it eligible for GSA (General Services Administration) Schedule and other federal procurement contracts.
