Lightware HDMI-TPX-TX106A AVX (non-switchable) HDMI 2.0 extender - 91580003

Product Overview

The Lightware HDMI-TPX-TX106A is an HDMI 2.0 TPX transmitter in the AVX (non-switchable) configuration, designed to extend HDMI 2.0 signals over twisted-pair cabling to compatible Lightware TPX receivers. It accepts an HDMI 2.0 source and transmits the signal over a single Cat cable, delivering 4K resolution with HDR and HDCP 2.2 support to a remote display location. The non-switchable AVX designation indicates this is a dedicated point-to-point extender without local switching capability.

Product Description

The TPX product line from Lightware uses twisted-pair extension technology to bridge HDMI 2.0 sources and displays over distances that exceed the practical limits of standard HDMI cables. The TX106A variant includes analog audio embedding capability alongside video transmission, making it suitable for installations where audio from a separate analog source must be combined with the HDMI signal before extension. HDCP 2.2 support ensures compatibility with protected 4K content from Blu-ray players, streaming devices, and secured media servers. The unit integrates into Lightware's TPX ecosystem and is compatible with Lightware's receiver and matrix products in the same line.
