Intelix HDMI 1.3 and IR over Twisted Pair Balun Set

Pro-Grade Active CAT 5 Extender System

The Intelix DIGI-HDMI-IR HDMI 1.3 and IR over Twisted Pair Balun Set features an active design that makes it possible to transmit signals up up to 150 feet.  Even at 1080p, the system can handle runs up to 100 feet.

As you might expect from Intelix, the DIGI-HDMI-IR is fully HDCP-compliant.  The system handles HDMI v1.2  and HDMI v1.3 in an elegant manner, so you can expect the highest signal quality. The system also includes a return IR control path, as well as IR receiver and emitter, so the remote source device can easily be controlled by an IR remote at the display device location.

Unusual for this price range, this system features electrostatic discharge protection circuitry to help prevent damage to the HDMI circuit that can occur as a result of static electric discharges, adding an extra layer of protection for not only the DIGI-HDMI-IR, but for the connected equipment as well.

In many installations (if the IR receiver is not used), the balun system can be powered from the HDMI bus...which brings us to the next useful feature: the diagnostic LEDs.  For example, if the HDMI bus is providing enough power, that will be immediately apparent simply by observing the power LEDs on both the transmitter and receiver units.  The handy included mounting hardware is yet another touch that makes the Intelix balun set such an appealing option. 

Like most Intelix products, the DIGI-HDMI-IR comes with a two year limited warranty from the manufacturer.
