Saugerties, N.Y.-based Ocean Matrix announced that users can extend crisp and clean 4K HDMI signals up to 328 feet over a single CAT6a/CAT7 cable with the Ocean Matrix 01HMBT0013 HDBaseT extender. This unit employs the latest in HDBaseT 3.0 extension technology enabling long-distance distribution of uncompressed HDMI 2.0 4K@60Hz 4:4:4, audio, 1Gb Ethernet, USB 2.0, controls and power. What’s more, it deploys all of this with near-zero latency.
Ocean Matrix adds that the 01HMBT0013 offers several ways to gain complete control over the audio. The transmitter and receiver supports both audio embedding and disembedding. Meanwhile, the complete system supports eARC/ARC when the need to pass through audio via HDMI is required.
