Binary™ HDBaseT Receiver with Bi-directional IR for B-520 HDBaseT Matrix Switchers
When you want to extend audio and video signals over long distances without sacrificing resolution or quality, a Binary™ HDBaseT Receiver is what you need. This one goes the distance, receiving up to 4K Ultra HD@30Hz video and 7.1 channels of lossless audio over a single CAT cable (when paired with a B-520 HDBaseT transmitter). It works with dedicated HDBaseT transmitters, as well as products with the transmitters built in (such as B-520 matrix switchers) – providing flexibility and interoperability on the job. “Plug and play technology” allows this product to bypass frustrating EQ and EDID settings, and for the finishing touch it includes bi-directional IR for complete system integration. 

Benefits of HDBaseT Technology
Thanks to HDBaseT technology, this Binary™ Receiver is able to receive full uncompressed 1080p HD video and audio through a single CAT cable up to 230 ft. It provides greater RF immunity, so you get a better and more reliable signal, plus it's easier to install because you don t have to fiddle with any EQ or EDID settings. Just plug and play and you're on your way to faster and easier media distribution. ​

4K Ultra HD with Full 3D Support
When paired with B-520 HDBaseT transmitters this extender offers full support of 4K Ultra HD(including HDMI® with 3D), Deep Color (36bit) and HDCP 2.0, as well as support for Dolby® True HD, Dolby® Digital Plus, DTS™-HD Master and LPCM audio formats. If using a B-520 Matrix Switcher, this extender offers full support of HDMI® with 3D and Deep Color (36bit).

Power over Cable (PoC)
No room for a bulky power supply behind the TV? Not a problem. With Power over Cable (PoC), you can send power over the same Cat5e/6 cable that extends your video, audio, and control signals when paired with HDBaseT Transmitting device capable of POC such as B-520 Matrix switchers. When paired with B-520 Matrix switcher, the matrix provides the power at the receiver, eliminating the power supply.

Work Smarter, Not Harder
Forget about wasting precious install time running back and forth, fiddling with transmitter and receiver settings, and struggling to get a good picture. With this extender kit there are no EQ or EDID settings required – all you do is plug and play. Now that s smart!

Bi-Directional IR
This receiver allows you to send IR to equipment back at the head-end from the TV location quickly and easily and over the same cable. Using an automation or remote system? We ve included an adapter cable to allow for control of the TV from the controller. For best performance, use our Episode® IR flashers and receivers.

IR Flexibility
An IR receiver port provides power when connected to an IR receiver or shuts off when connected to control systems. Plus, an IR flasher level knob helps to adjust the intensity of the flasher in order to accommodate the TV and light present in different zones.

Built-In ESD and Surge Protection
Intelligent circuit design, perfected through extensive hardware testing, has resulted in a robust product with excellent ESD and surge protection that exceeds CE Level 3 standards. During development, every connection was tortured with an ESD gun and a lightning simulator. They were hit with ESD at 15KV and surges up to 1600V. More importantly, though, they each lived to tell about it!

Screw Down Power plug
When the receiver is used with HDBaseT Transmitter with no POC like B-520-TX-230-IR, a screw down power supply B-PS-12VDC-2A will be required to supply power to the receiver. Plus the extender features screw-down power plug, so you never have to worry about getting service calls because a plug fell out when the TV was moved.

Removable mounting ears
The receiver comes with mounting ears, making it easy to get the receiver mounted securely.
