PureLink's HT-150
Provides a Robust Solution for HD Video Distribution
PureLink announced today that the HT-150 1x5 HDMI
HDBaseT Distribution Amplifier is now shipping. The HT-150 provides
distribution of HDMI over four HDBaseT outputs, extending HDMI up to 330 feet
(100 meters) to four remote locations, as well as a fifth output providing
local HDMI for confidence monitoring.
Designed to simplify long distance, multi-display distribution, the HT-150 combines TOTALWIRE
technology with powerful features and functions not found in any other product
of its kind.
Do More, Go Further
With integral HDBaseT ‘transmitters’, installations are simplified by relieving
the need for additional cabling and external HDBaseT transmitters, which are
commonly required with other brands' configurations.
The HT-150
also delivers immediate system analysis with status LEDs that indicate signal
present on the input and display sensing on the outputs, an exclusive
diagnostic only offered by PureLink’s HDTools™
line.
"The HT-150 is a home run," said Kevin Kang, Associate Director of
Technical Sales for PureLink. "From visual diagnostics to the local HDMI
output and captive power connector, the HT-150 offers thought-through design
and functionality, solving distribution and extension needs of applications
such as digital signage, conference centers, data management, and many
others."
The PureLink Advantage
PureLink innovations in EDID management are carried on in the HT-150, allowing the
user to enable any of the outputs' EDID to communicate the signal requirements
to the source device, or select the internal 1080p EDID to ensure successful
operation regardless of EDID information from any of the connected displays.
The included infrared repeater and transmitter enable easy bi-directional
infrared extension. Optional extender receivers, such as the HCE
II Rx (the industry’s smallest HDBaseT extender), support all HT-150
functions including infrared, allowing seamless control of remote displays,
sources, or other devices.
“Before PureLink I have spent many years in integration and service, and
cannot count how many times I wanted a product with visual diagnostics,"
said Kang. "The HT-150 is able to sense if there is an active display
connected, even through it’s extenders, and report that on the front panel. In
addition, the local HDMI output enables confidence monitoring and/or localized
display connectivity, further demonstrating PureLink's forward-thinking,
practical, and sensible approach to HD video connectivity."
