User Guide CARD FUNCTIONALITY HDBaseT Cards HDBaseT input and output cards are designed to receive or transmit audio, video, control, and power up to 600ft with 24bit 1080p 60Hz depending on model using a single common CAT 5e / 6 / 6A cable. DXCI-4-HDBT1 & DXCO-4-HDBT1 will go up to 230ft with 36bit color depth. DXCI-4-HDBT2 & DXCO-4-HDBT2 will go up to 330ft 48 bit color depth or 600ft with 24bit color depth (CAT 6A shielded cable required for this distance).
User Guide HDMI Cards HDMI input and output cards support 1080p 60Hz video resolutions with stereo and Dolby® Surround Sound audio. The input and output cards will work with DVI signals. The output card has the unique ability to auto detect a DVI display or device connected and automatically remove the audio from the signal even if the source is HDMI. This saves space and cost as an external device to strip the audio electrically is not required.
