AVPro Edge AC-CXWP-VGA-T HDMI or VGA Wall Plate Transmitter via HDBaseT

Overview

The AVPro Edge AC-CXWP-VGA-T is a single-gang HDBaseT wall plate transmitter that accepts either HDMI or VGA input and extends those signals over a single CAT-6A cable to a compatible HDBaseT receiver. Purpose-built for the ConferX product line, it is designed to simplify AV integration in legacy-friendly environments—conference rooms, classrooms, huddle spaces, and training facilities where both HDMI-equipped modern sources and VGA-output older devices must coexist at the same connection point.

Description

Installed into any standard single-gang Decora mud ring, the AC-CXWP-VGA-T auto-senses which input is active and switches accordingly—no user intervention required. Paired with a compatible HDBaseT receiver such as the AC-EX70-444-RNE-P, it delivers 1080p signals up to 100 meters (330 ft) and 4K signals up to 70 meters (230 ft) over CAT-6A. The transmitter draws power via PoE from the receiver, eliminating the need for a local power outlet at the wall plate location, which is a significant advantage during new construction or retrofit work where electrical access is limited.

The unit supports HDCP 2.2 and earlier, handles HDR 4:2:2 12-bit content, and passes audio formats including Dolby TrueHD, DTS HD-Master Audio, and Atmos. ESD protection up to 7kV is built in at both inputs and outputs. A 10-year warranty is included, consistent with AVPro Edge's ConferX line warranty policy.

Typical Applications

• K-12 and higher-education classrooms where teachers use both laptops (HDMI) and older document cameras or desktop PCs (VGA)
• Corporate conference rooms requiring a single wall plate connection point for BYOD HDMI and legacy VGA sources
• Government and military training rooms with mixed-generation AV equipment
• Huddle spaces and collaboration rooms where minimizing visible cables and hardware is a priority
• Auditoriums and presentation halls with podium AV connection plates serving multiple presenter types
• Retrofit AV installations where re-wiring for HDMI to each room is not feasible and existing VGA infrastructure must be preserved

FAQ

Can the AC-CXWP-VGA-T use both HDMI and VGA inputs at the same time?

No. The unit auto-senses which input is active and transmits that signal. It does not combine or switch between inputs simultaneously—it is designed to be a single-source-at-a-time connection point.

Does the wall plate require a local power outlet?

No. Power is supplied via PoE from a compatible HDBaseT receiver such as the AC-EX70-444-RNE-P. An optional local 12V supply can be used if connecting to a non-PoE HDBaseT device.

What cable type is required for 4K transmission at 70 meters?

CAT-6A is required to achieve 4K at 70 meters (230 ft). CAT-6 may be used for shorter distances at lower resolutions. CAT-5e is not recommended for 4K runs.

Is the unit compatible with any HDBaseT receiver?

The AC-CXWP-VGA-T is compatible with HDBaseT-compliant receivers. Full feature support (including PoE power and maximum distance) is guaranteed when paired with AVPro Edge ConferX receivers. Third-party HDBaseT receivers may work but compatibility should be verified per installation.

What does the 10-year warranty cover?

AVPro Edge's ConferX 10-year warranty covers defects in materials and workmanship under normal use conditions. Contact Creation Networks for full warranty terms and RMA procedures.
