AVPro Edge Power 8 Extenders with 1 Power supply. 1.25m Leads

Overview

The AVPro Edge Power 8 Extenders kit centralizes power delivery for up to eight AVPro Edge extender units from a single power supply. Each of the eight 1.25-meter leads connects to one extender, replacing eight individual wall-wart adapters with a single, organized power solution. The result is a cleaner rack installation, reduced cable clutter, and a single point of power management for multi-zone AV extender deployments.

This kit is compatible with all AVPro Edge extender sets, making it the standard centralized power solution for AVPro-based HDMI distribution systems in rack-built environments.

Description

In multi-room and multi-zone AV installations, extender units are frequently installed in centralized equipment racks. Each extender typically ships with its own power supply, resulting in a proliferation of wall-wart adapters that consume rack space and power strip outlets. The AVPro Edge Power 8 kit resolves this by providing a single rack-friendly power supply with eight pre-terminated 1.25-meter leads, each sized to reach extenders mounted in a standard 1U or 2U rack position.

The 1.25-meter lead length is intentionally specified to reach extenders mounted in adjacent rack positions without excess cable slack. This keeps the rack interior tidy and reduces the risk of cable interference with airflow or signal wiring.

Key Features

• Single power supply replaces up to eight individual extender wall adapters
• Eight 1.25-meter leads pre-terminated for direct connection to AVPro Edge extenders
• Compatible with all AVPro Edge extender sets — no additional adapters required
• Reduces rack power strip outlet usage from 8 outlets to 1
• Eliminates wall-wart clutter in rack environments
• Lead length sized for intra-rack runs to minimize excess cable
• Simplifies power cycling — one switch powers or cycles all connected extenders

Typical Applications

• Centralized AV equipment racks in corporate conference room clusters
• Multi-room residential AV systems with rack-mounted HDMI extenders
• Education AV installations with multiple display zones powered from a single rack
• Hotel AV rack rooms serving multiple guestroom extender endpoints
• Broadcast and event production racks using AVPro Edge HDMI distribution
• Systems integrators building pre-configured rack solutions for AVPro Edge deployments

Competitor Comparison

The AVPro Edge AC-PSU-SQUID is the only factory-specified, pre-terminated centralized power solution validated for all AVPro Edge extender sets. Generic alternatives require voltage verification and custom termination, adding labor cost and warranty risk to the installation.

FAQ

Does this power supply work with all AVPro Edge extenders, including HDBaseT and fiber models?

Yes. The kit is specified as compatible with all AVPro Edge extender sets. Confirm the specific extender model's power requirements with AVPro Edge or Creation Networks if you are using a newer extender released after this product's publication date.

What happens if I only need to power 4 extenders — can I leave 4 leads unused?

Yes. Unused leads can be bundled and secured within the rack. The power supply is not damaged by having fewer than 8 outputs loaded. For installations consistently using 4 or fewer extenders, AVPro Edge may offer a 4-port variant better suited to the application.

Is the power supply rack-mountable on its own, or does it require a separate rack tray?

This unit is designed for use in rack environments and is commonly paired with the AVPro Edge AC-EZRACK series rack mounts. Confirm the mounting method with the product documentation or contact Creation Networks for rack integration guidance.

Can this PSU be used with non-AVPro Edge extenders?

The leads are pre-terminated for AVPro Edge extender connectors. Using them with other brands would require confirming voltage compatibility and connector compatibility, which is not supported or warranted by AVPro Edge. Use with AVPro Edge extenders only.
