RGB Spectrum CAT-Linx 3 TX-T – TAA 4K HDMI Extender Transmitter

Product Overview

The RGB Spectrum CAT-Linx 3 TX-T is the TAA version of the CAT-Linx 3 transmitter, a single-channel 4K HDMI extender endpoint that carries video over CATx structured cabling. It is specified on federal, defense and federally funded projects where a Trade Agreements Act clause governs AV hardware sourcing. The RGB Spectrum price list records the part as a single-channel CAT-Linx 3 transmitter with 4K UHD at 60Hz over HDMI, HDCP 2.2 compliance and Power-over-CATx capability. Like every extender endpoint, it is deployed as a pair with its matching receiver.

Product Description

Government AV projects routinely need the same signal extension a commercial room needs, but with a compliant part number on the purchase order. This part fills that role: it is the TAA variant of the CAT-Linx 3 transmitter, ordered where a contract clause requires it rather than because the application differs. RGB Spectrum publishes no separate specification table, datasheet or product image for the -T part number, so this page does not restate the standard model table against it. What the RGB Spectrum price list does state for this part number is set out under Technical Specifications below, including its TAA compliance. Where full published extender figures are needed for a design package, the RGB Spectrum CAT-Linx 3 TX page carries the values RGB Spectrum publishes for the standard model, and Creation Networks will confirm in writing which of those figures the TAA part number is warranted to meet. Order the unit with the RGB Spectrum CAT-Linx 3 RX-T, since a transmitter cannot operate alone. Fixed installations add the 920 12033 table or wall mount bracket to secure the endpoint, and the 860 11989 replacement power supply is the spare to stock for the CAT-Linx family. TAA part numbers often carry longer lead times than their commercial equivalents, so confirm availability before committing a project schedule.

Key Features

• TAA compliant version — The RGB Spectrum price list identifies this part number as the TAA variant, which is what federal sourcing clauses generally require.
• Single-channel 4K extension — The price list records 4K UHD at 60Hz over HDMI for this part number, matching the role of the standard CAT-Linx 3 endpoint.
• HDCP 2.2 compliant — Protected commercial sources are supported, per the price list entry for this part number.
• Power over CATx capable — The price list records Power-over-CATx capability, so a far-end position without a spare outlet can still be served.
• Pair deployment — The endpoint operates with its matching receiver, keeping the bill of materials for each link straightforward.
• Compliance documentation support — Creation Networks obtains the manufacturer TAA statement and confirmed specifications for the contract file before shipment.

Typical Applications

• Government space — Agency conference and briefing rooms extend 4K HDMI over structured cabling with a compliant part number.
• Control room — Federally funded control rooms reach operator displays or head-end racks over CATx while meeting sourcing rules.
• Command center — Defense watch floors standardise on TAA endpoints across every extended signal path.
• Emergency operations center — Publicly funded activation rooms satisfy grant sourcing conditions on AV extension hardware.
• Training room — Government training spaces connect instructor positions and rear-of-room displays with compliant extenders.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the -T version electrically identical to the standard CAT-Linx 3 TX?
RGB Spectrum lists it as the TAA version but publishes no separate specification table for it. Creation Networks confirms the warranted figures in writing rather than restating the standard model table against a different part number.

Why is there no full specification table on this page?
No datasheet, table or product image is published by RGB Spectrum against this part number. Presenting the standard model table as though it were published for the -T part would misstate what the manufacturer supports.

Do I still need both ends of the link?
Yes. Extenders are point-to-point pairs, so order this transmitter together with the RGB Spectrum CAT-Linx 3 RX-T.

What does TAA compliance mean for our contract file?
TAA refers to Trade Agreements Act sourcing compliance required by many federal and federally funded contracts. Request the manufacturer compliance statement through Creation Networks.

How is the endpoint mounted and powered?
The price list records Power-over-CATx capability for this part number. For fixed mounting, the 920 12033 table or wall mount bracket secures a single endpoint, and the 860 11989 replacement power supply is the spare to stock.

Should we expect a longer lead time than the commercial part?
TAA part numbers frequently take longer to supply than their commercial equivalents. Ask Creation Networks for current availability before fixing an installation date.

What warranty and support apply?
The RGB Spectrum manufacturer warranty applies to this part number, and Creation Networks supports specification and procurement for the deployment. Contact us for the current warranty documentation supplied with the order.
