Product Overview

The Kramer TP-580CT is a long-reach HDBaseT transmitter for 4K@60Hz (4:2:0) USB-C (DisplayPort Alt Mode) video signals, RS-232, and IR, allowing USB-C laptops and devices to connect to an HDBaseT infrastructure without a separate dongle or adapter at the presenter position. AV integrators use the TP-580CT in BYOD conference rooms and presentation spaces where USB-C is the primary laptop connection standard, providing both the HDBaseT signal extension and up to 60W of USB Power Delivery (PD 2.0) charging back to the connected laptop over the same USB-C cable. It is compatible with any HDBaseT-certified receiver including the Kramer TP-580R.

Frequently Asked Questions

Does the TP-580CT charge the connected laptop?

Yes. If the connected USB-C device supports USB Power Delivery 2.0, the TP-580CT provides up to 60W of charging power over the USB-C cable while simultaneously extending the video signal over HDBaseT.

What receiver pairs with the TP-580CT?

The TP-580CT pairs with any HDBaseT-certified receiver. The Kramer TP-580R is the standard pairing recommendation. Contact Creation Networks at https://creationnetworks.net for configuration guidance.
