Atlona Omega 4K/UHD HDMI/USB-over-HDBaseT Lite Extender Kit (230') - AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT

Product Overview

The Atlona AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT is an HDBaseT extender kit for HDMI video, USB 2.0, and control signals, purpose-built for video conferencing and collaboration in huddle rooms and small meeting spaces. Part of the Atlona Omega Series, this 4K/UHD HDMI over HDBaseT extender kit transmits video up to 130 feet (40 meters) at 4K/UHD with 4:2:0 chroma, or up to 230 feet (70 meters) at 1080p, over CAT6a/7 cable. Integrated USB extension addresses the core challenge of soft-codec video conferencing by connecting host PCs at the meeting table with cameras, speakerphones, and displays at the wall — all over a single category cable run. The transmitter is powered remotely by the receiver over HDBaseT, enabling clean, cableless table installations without a local power supply.

Product Description

The Atlona AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT is an HDBaseT extender kit for video up to 4K/60 4:2:0, embedded audio, control, and USB over distances up to 130 feet (40 meters) for 4K/UHD and up to 230 feet (70 meters) for 1080p. The kit includes a transmitter (AT-OME-EX-TX-LT) and a receiver (AT-OME-EX-RX-LT) connected by a single CAT6a or CAT7 cable run. The transmitter features one HDMI input, one USB Type B host interface for a PC, and two USB Type A device ports for peripherals such as a speakerphone or keyboard and mouse. The receiver provides one HDMI output to a display and two USB Type A device ports for peripherals such as a camera or soundbar. This USB extension architecture is ideal for Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex, Skype for Business, and GoToMeeting video conferencing deployments where the host PC sits at the table and the camera and audio peripherals are mounted at the display wall. The transmitter requires no local AC power — it is powered remotely by the receiver over the HDBaseT cable link via IEEE 802.3af PoE, simplifying installation at the meeting table or any under-table location. RS-232 and IR control signal extension provides optional integration with a control system or handheld IR remote for source and display management. HDCP 2.2 compliance and support for HDMI data rates up to 10 Gbps ensure compatibility with current 4K PC sources and media players. A front-panel HDBaseT link test button and dedicated software utility enable fast cable integrity verification during installation. Available from Creation Networks at creationnetworks.net.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What cable type is required for the maximum 230-foot extension distance?

CAT6, CAT6a, or CAT7 cable is required to achieve the 230-foot (70-meter) maximum at 1080p. For 4K/UHD signals, the same cable types support up to 130 feet (40 meters). CAT5e cable supports 200 feet (60 meters) at 1080p and 115 feet (35 meters) at 4K/UHD.

Q: Which video conferencing platforms are supported by the USB extension?

The AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT's integrated USB 2.0 extension supports all major soft-codec platforms including Zoom, Microsoft Teams, Cisco Webex, Skype for Business, and GoToMeeting. Any platform that uses USB-connected cameras, speakerphones, and microphones is compatible.

Q: Does the transmitter require a local power supply at the table?

No. The transmitter is powered remotely by the receiver over the HDBaseT cable link using IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet. Only the receiver requires an AC power connection, making the transmitter installation at the meeting table clean and cable-free.

Q: What is the maximum USB data rate supported over HDBaseT?

The AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT supports a maximum USB data rate of 120 Mbps over the HDBaseT link due to USB bandwidth limitations inherent to HDBaseT technology. USB 2.0 devices, USB 3.0 devices compatible with USB 2.0, and legacy USB 1.x peripherals are all supported.

Q: Does the AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT support 4K/60 with full 4:4:4 chroma?

4K/60 is supported at 4:2:0 chroma subsampling. For 4K with 4:4:4 chroma, the maximum frame rate is 30 Hz. For full 4K/60 4:4:4 HDR performance, consider the AT-OME-EX-TX and AT-OME-EX-RX extender pair which supports 100-meter extension.

Q: Can the AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT be used with touch-enabled displays?

Yes. The USB extension capability allows a touch-enabled or interactive display connected to the receiver to send touch input signals back to the host PC connected at the transmitter, enabling remote touch and interactive display control over the HDBaseT link.

Q: Is this extender kit compatible with the Atlona HDVS-300 system for USB extension?

No. The AT-OME-EX-KIT-LT is not compatible with the Atlona HDVS-300 system for USB extension purposes. It is designed to work within the Omega Series ecosystem and is compatible with Atlona Omega Series peripherals.
