Atlona 4K HDR HDMI HDBaseT Transmitter & Receiver Kit

Overview

The Atlona AT-HDR-EX-100CEA-KIT is an HDBaseT transmitter and receiver kit designed to deliver true 4K HDR video with no visible loss or delay. It supports 4K and UHD signals at 60 Hz with full 4:4:4 chroma sampling, extending high-quality video up to 330 feet over a single CAT6a or CAT7 cable. This kit also carries Ethernet, RS-232, and IR control signals along the same cable, simplifying installation and device management in various environments such as home theaters, conference rooms, and digital signage setups.

Key features

• Transmits 4K and UHD video at 60 Hz with full 4:4:4 chroma sampling for sharp and accurate images
• Supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision to preserve wide color gamut and contrast in movies and games
• Extends HDMI, Ethernet, RS-232, and IR control signals up to 330 feet using a single CAT6a or CAT7 cable, reducing cable clutter

Connectivity and compatibility

This kit integrates multiple signal types into a single cable run, making it ideal for setups where minimizing wiring is important. It supports Ethernet for network connectivity, RS-232 for device control, and IR for remote commands, all alongside HDMI video and audio signals. The HDCP 2.2 compliance ensures it works seamlessly with protected content from Blu-ray players, streaming devices, and gaming consoles. Its compatibility with HDR10 and Dolby Vision means it supports the latest high dynamic range content standards.

Installation and setup

The transmitter supplies power to the receiver through Power over Ethernet, so there is no need to locate a power outlet near the display, simplifying installation in tight or hard-to-reach spaces. Using a single CAT6a or CAT7 cable to carry video, control, network, and power signals reduces installation time and potential points of failure. The kit’s zero latency and visually lossless compression ensure that video and audio remain perfectly synchronized, which is critical for presentations, gaming, and live events.

Ideal uses and environments

This transmitter and receiver kit fits well in home theaters where equipment racks are placed away from the display, conference rooms with sources under tables, and digital signage installations requiring secure placement of media players. It is a strong choice for integrators upgrading residential AV systems, outfitting classrooms, or scaling enterprise-level AV distribution networks. Users who need reliable, high-quality 4K HDR video transmission over long distances with integrated control and power delivery will find this kit particularly effective.
