Lightware UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F120 RED 2MM Optical AV Over IP Video System for 10G Networks - 91820202

Product Overview

The Lightware UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F120 RED 2MM is an uncompressed AV-over-IP encoder/decoder for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks, providing 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI distribution via two multimode fiber SFP+ ports. The F120 model handles video, audio, and control distribution including analog audio I/O. The 2MM (dual multimode) variant is suited for intra-building fiber runs — typically up to 300 m on OM4 — where existing multimode fiber plant is available and copper CAT cabling cannot cover the required distance. The RED license provides advanced routing and management within the UBEX ecosystem.

Product Description

The UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F120 RED 2MM transmits uncompressed HDMI 2.0 at up to 4K60 4:4:4 HDR over a 10G Ethernet network using two LC-terminated multimode fiber SFP+ ports. It operates as either an encoder or decoder based on software configuration. Analog audio I/O is provided for local audio breakout or embedding alongside the HDMI-embedded audio stream. RS-232 and Ethernet pass-through are extended over the fiber link for source device control and LAN access at remote endpoints. The two fiber ports support dual-switch redundancy or dual-network connectivity for high-availability installations. SFP+ modules are required and allow integration with existing OM3/OM4 multimode fiber infrastructure using standard 10G transceivers.

Key Features

• Uncompressed 4K60 4:4:4 HDR — Full HDMI 2.0 bandwidth transmitted without compression over 10G multimode fiber.
• Dual Multimode Fiber SFP+ Ports (2MM) — Two LC multimode fiber ports for intra-building fiber runs and dual-switch redundancy.
• Analog Audio I/O — Balanced analog audio input and output for local audio embedding and breakout without separate de-embedders.
• No Proprietary Switch Required — Compatible with any 10G standards-compliant Ethernet switch with SFP+ fiber ports.
• RED Advanced License — Advanced routing, user management, and expanded API access included.
• RS-232 and Ethernet Pass-Through — Control and LAN extended over the fiber link to remote endpoints.
• Encoder/Decoder in One Unit — Configurable as transmitter or receiver.

Typical Applications

• Intra-building 4K AV-over-IP distribution over existing OM3/OM4 multimode fiber
• Enterprise campus distribution where copper CAT cannot reach but fiber is in place
• Auditorium or large-venue display distribution over building fiber plant
• Broadcast facility with multimode fiber infrastructure between production areas

Frequently Asked Questions

What multimode fiber standard does this unit support?

OM3 and OM4 multimode fiber with 10GBASE-SR SFP+ modules. Maximum recommended distance is approximately 300 m on OM4.

What is the difference between 2MM and 2SM variants?

2MM uses multimode fiber for shorter intra-building runs (up to ~300 m on OM4). 2SM uses single-mode fiber for inter-building or campus runs (typically 10 km+ with appropriate SFP+).

Are SFP+ modules included?

SFP+ modules are typically not included and must be specified separately. Contact Creation Networks for compatible SFP+ recommendations for your fiber plant.

Does the F120 include USB extension?

No. USB 2.0 extension is only available on F130 models. Specify the UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F130 RED 2MM if USB peripheral routing is required.

Where can I purchase the UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F120 RED 2MM?
