Lightware UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F120 RED 2SM Optical AV Over IP Video System for 10G Networks - 91820203

Product Overview

The Lightware UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F120 RED 2SM is an uncompressed AV-over-IP encoder/decoder for 10 Gigabit Ethernet networks, providing 4K60 4:4:4 HDMI distribution with analog audio I/O via two single-mode fiber SFP+ ports. The 2SM (dual single-mode) variant targets inter-building and campus-range deployments where existing single-mode fiber infrastructure is in place and copper or multimode fiber cannot span the required distances. The RED license provides advanced routing and management in the UBEX ecosystem.

Product Description

The UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F120 RED 2SM transmits uncompressed HDMI 2.0 at up to 4K60 4:4:4 HDR over a 10G single-mode fiber network, configurable as encoder or decoder per software setting. The F120 model includes analog audio I/O for local audio embedding or breakout, extending audio flexibility beyond HDMI-embedded audio. RS-232 and Ethernet pass-through are extended over the fiber link for source device control and LAN access. Two LC single-mode fiber SFP+ ports allow dual-switch redundancy or connection to two independent fiber paths. Standard 10GBASE-LR SFP+ transceivers connect to existing single-mode plant without proprietary cabling. All UBEX units are managed centrally via UBEX Manager software on the network.

Key Features

• Uncompressed 4K60 4:4:4 HDR — Full HDMI 2.0 bandwidth transmitted without compression over 10G single-mode fiber.
• Dual Single-Mode Fiber SFP+ Ports (2SM) — Two LC single-mode fiber ports for inter-building and campus-range AV-over-IP distribution.
• Analog Audio I/O — Balanced analog audio input and output for local audio embedding and breakout.
• Network Redundancy — Dual ports support dual-switch or redundant fiber path connectivity.
• RED Advanced License — Advanced routing, user management, and API access.
• RS-232 and Ethernet Pass-Through — Control and LAN extended to remote endpoints over the fiber link.
• Encoder/Decoder in One Unit — Configurable as transmitter or receiver from a single hardware SKU.

Typical Applications

• Inter-building campus AV distribution over existing single-mode fiber plant
• Enterprise multi-building 4K signal distribution with analog audio breakout
• University campus AV-over-IP between buildings with SM fiber infrastructure
• Government multi-building facility with redundant fiber AV distribution

Frequently Asked Questions

What fiber distance does this unit support?

With standard 10GBASE-LR SFP+ modules, single-mode fiber distances up to 10 km are supported. Extended-reach SFP+ modules can increase this further.

Are SFP+ modules included?

SFP+ modules are typically not included. Contact Creation Networks for compatible 10GBASE-LR SFP+ specifications for your fiber plant.

Does this model include USB extension?

No. USB 2.0 extension is available only on F130 models. Specify UBEX-Pro20-HDMI-F130 RED 2SM for USB peripheral routing over the network.

What is the difference between 2SM and 2MM?

2SM uses single-mode fiber for inter-building distances (typically 10 km+ with 10GBASE-LR). 2MM uses multimode fiber for intra-building runs up to ~300 m on OM4.

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