Atlona Omega 4K/UHD HDMI Over HDBaseT TX Wallplate/RX - AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT

Product Overview

The Atlona AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT is a two-piece 4K HDBaseT wallplate extender kit that combines an HDMI wall plate transmitter with an HDBaseT receiver, delivering video, USB 2.0, RS-232 control, and remote power over a single category cable in a compact, installation-friendly package. Designed for conference rooms, hybrid classrooms, and video conferencing applications, this HDBaseT TX/RX wallplate kit extends 4K/UHD signals up to 130 feet (40 meters) and 1080p/60 signals up to 230 feet (70 meters) using CAT6/6a/7 cable. The integrated USB hub supports UC platforms including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex, and Skype for Business by connecting a host PC at the transmitter and USB peripherals such as a camera or soundbar at the receiver. HDCP 2.2 compliance and PoE remote powering of the transmitter from the receiver round out a solution engineered for straightforward two-room AV deployments.

Product Description

The AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT pairs the AT-OME-EX-TX-WP-LT wallplate transmitter with the AT-OME-EX-RX-LT receiver to form a complete, matched HDBaseT extender kit from Atlona's Omega Series. The transmitter mounts in a standard US one-gang wallplate opening and ships with interchangeable black and white trim kits, allowing flush installation on a wall, into a lectern, desk surface, table box, or floor box. The receiver features a low-profile 1.02-inch-high enclosure that tucks behind a wall-mounted display or above a projector mount without occupying rack space. The wallplate transmitter receives power from the receiver over the HDBaseT link via IEEE 802.3af PoE, removing the requirement for a local AC power supply at the transmitter location. The transmitter's USB Type-B port accepts connection from a host PC, while the USB Type-A port interfaces with one peripheral device such as a speakerphone or microphone. At the receiver end, two USB Type-A ports accommodate devices such as a conference camera or soundbar. RS-232 pass-through at baud rates from 2400 to 115200 extends control system signals to the display. A free software utility from Atlona enables real-time HDBaseT link status testing and cable quality verification. Multi-channel audio formats including Dolby Atmos and DTS:X pass through transparently. The AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT is positioned as a budget-friendly, all-in-one HDBaseT extender kit suitable for educational institutions, corporate meeting rooms, and government spaces where AV and USB connectivity must reach from a presenter position to a wall-mounted display without running additional power circuits.

Technical Specifications

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What is the difference between the AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT and the AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT?

The primary difference is extension distance. The AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT extends 4K/UHD up to 130 feet (40 meters) and 1080p/60 up to 230 feet (70 meters), while the AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT supports 4K/UHD extension up to 330 feet (100 meters). Both kits include wallplate TX and receiver with identical USB, RS-232, and PoE features. The LT variant is well-suited for shorter room installations where the full 330-foot range is not required.

Q: Does the AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT transmitter need a local power supply?

No. The wallplate transmitter is powered by the receiver over the HDBaseT link via IEEE 802.3af PoE. Only the receiver requires connection to an AC power source via the included external power supply.

Q: Which USB video conferencing peripherals are compatible with this kit?

The kit supports USB 2.0 devices, USB 3.0 devices operating in USB 2.0 mode, and legacy USB 1.x peripherals. Common compatible devices include conference cameras, speakerphones, microphones, and USB soundbars. Atlona publishes an Omega USB Peripheral Compatibility List for verified devices.

Q: Can this kit be used with interactive or touch-enabled displays?

Yes. USB extension over HDBaseT allows a touch-enabled display connected to the receiver to send touch input back to a laptop connected at the wallplate transmitter, enabling remote PC control through the display.

Q: What cable is required between the transmitter and receiver?

CAT6, CAT6a, or CAT7 is recommended for maximum performance. CAT5e is also supported but limits 4K/UHD extension to 115 feet (35 meters) and 1080p to 200 feet (60 meters). Standard RJ-45 termination applies; a free Atlona link testing utility can verify cable quality after installation.

Q: Is firmware compatible between the KIT-LT and the full AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT?

No. The AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT firmware is not interchangeable with the AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT firmware. Always use the firmware package specific to the AT-OME-EX-WP-KIT-LT when performing updates.

Q: What is the warranty coverage and where can I get support?

Atlona products are covered under Atlona's standard limited warranty. For warranty details, visit the Atlona warranty page. For pre-sales guidance, integration planning, or order support, contact Creation Networks at creationnetworks.net.
