AVPro Edge HDBaseT (CAT6) Extender Kit. 10.2G, 40m 4K (70m HD) Slim Extender with I-Pass, Bi-Directional Power, RS232, IR. 4K60 4:2:0 Max, HDR/HLG: 4K30 4:2:0 12 BIT, 4K30 4:2:2 12 BIT, Dolby Vision 30 FPS; TAA Compliant; Made in the USA

Product Overview

The AVPro Edge HDBaseT CAT6 Extender Kit delivers 10.2 Gbps of bandwidth over a single CAT6 cable, extending 4K video up to 40 meters and HD video up to 70 meters with full HDR, HLG, and Dolby Vision support at 30 fps. Its slim form factor integrates bi-directional power, RS232, IR pass-through, and I-Pass control signaling into a single cable run, making it a practical choice for installations where conduit space and wiring complexity are primary concerns. TAA compliant and manufactured in the USA, this extender meets the procurement requirements of government agencies, educational institutions, and enterprise accounts operating under domestic sourcing mandates. Integrators should note that the maximum video format is 4K60 at 4:2:0 chroma subsampling — installations requiring full 4K60 4:4:4 should consider the 18 Gbps variant.

Product Description

The AVPro Edge 10.2G HDBaseT Slim Extender Kit is designed for conference rooms, classrooms, government facilities, and corporate AV deployments where a single CAT6 cable must carry video, audio, control, and power simultaneously. The I-Pass feature passes CEC and IR signals alongside the primary video stream, allowing a single cable run to handle display control without additional IR emitter wiring. Bi-directional power means either the transmitter or receiver can supply power to the other unit, simplifying installations where only one power outlet is accessible at either end. RS232 pass-through enables integration with room control systems such as AMX, Crestron, or Extron for serial device management. The slim physical profile of both transmitter and receiver makes rack or surface mounting straightforward in space-constrained equipment rooms. At 40 meters for 4K60 4:2:0 and 70 meters for 1080p, the reach covers the vast majority of commercial AV cable runs without amplification or signal conditioning.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does this extender support full 4K60 4:4:4?

No. The 10.2 Gbps bandwidth limits the maximum 4K format to 4K60 4:2:0. For full 4K60 4:4:4 pass-through, the AVPro Edge 18 Gbps HDBaseT Extender Kit is the appropriate model.

Can either end power the other unit?

Yes. The bi-directional power feature allows the transmitter to power the receiver or vice versa, which is particularly useful when only one power outlet is available at either end of the cable run.

What does I-Pass do?

I-Pass carries CEC and IR control signals alongside the video and audio on the same CAT6 cable, enabling remote control of displays and sources without additional IR emitter or receiver wiring.

Is CAT5e cable compatible, or is CAT6 required?

CAT6 is specified for optimal performance at the rated distances. CAT5e may work at reduced distances but is not guaranteed to meet the published 40m 4K or 70m HD specifications.

Does this kit include the CAT6 cable?

No. The kit includes the transmitter and receiver units only. The CAT6 cable is customer-supplied and should be a straight-through, unshielded or shielded run with standard RJ45 terminations.
