Gefen EXT-UHDKA-LANS-RX

NEW - NOW SHIPPING
Extend and Distribute 4K HDMI w/ HDR, USB, RS-232, IR, and 2-way audio over a Local Area Network

Gefen's AV over IP solutions continue our tradition of providing high performance, scalable, expandable, and secure AV routing and distribution over a standard Gigabit Local Area Network. Our Gen 2.0 KVM products offer enhanced performance, features, and functionality such as 4K Ultra HD with HDR support, built-in scalers, video-wall control, independent USB, RS-232, IR, and audio routing**, and backward-compatibility with our first generation products. Each Sender and Receiver extends and routes video, USB, 2-way audio, RS-232, and IR.

The EXT-UHDKA-LANS-TX & RX feature maximum input resolution of 4K 60 Hz 4:2:0, and maximum output resolution of 4K 30 Hz 4:4:4. HDCP 2.2 and 1.4 are also supported. 7.1 channels of HBR (High Bit Rate) lossless and LPCM digital audio can pass through the system as well.

The Sender unit features a video output for local monitoring of the source. USB, RS-232 2-way IR, and audio can be routed independently** between any Sender and Receiver unit, allowing end-users to control any of the sources and the displays within their network. With this greatly expanded array of new cutting-edge features and performance, the new Gefen AV over IP products fully address the ever-growing needs of systems integrators.

The Receiver features a built-in scaler to help optimize the image for a variety of displays and different viewing environments. It also includes a powerful video wall controller that accommodates any screen configuration up to 16x16 and provides great flexibility in sizing and manipulating live and signage content in demanding installations. Digital and analog audio break-out de-embeds audio from the video and sends it to a separate audio system, enhancing the impact of presentations. The Receiver's integrated USB hub with two USB 2.0 and two USB 1.1 ports accommodates touch panels, keyboard and mouse, and a variety of supported devices. This feature, along with analog audio inputs and outputs, make these products perfect to use in collaborative and interactive installations. To ensure maximum versatility and compatibility, the audio outputs on the Receiver units are compatible with both headphones and line level devices such as powered speakers.

The VGA extender SRN allows users to extend video signals far beyond the A/V rack. The VGA extender SRN can be used to extend an analog VGA signal to cover distances up to 150 feet. Industry standard category 5e (CAT-5e) cable is used for the extension. The VGA extender SRN sender unit connects to your computer using the supplied VGA cable. The SRN receiver connects to your monitor up to 150 feet away. One CAT-5 cable connects the sender and the receiver to each other, extending your video. The video transmitter and receiver boxes are small and unobtrusive, allowing installation in small spaces.

Gefen's Video over IP solutions continue our tradition of providing high performance, scalable, expandable, and secure AV routing and distribution over a standard Gigabit Local Area Network. The Gefen 4K Ultra HD and VGA KVM over IP extends HDMI, VGA, USB, 2-way audio, RS-232, and IR. The Sender features a 1U tall and half-rack-width enclosure, perfect for rack mounting using the Gefen EXT-RACK-1U-GRY rack tray (available separately). It can also be surface mounted or be placed on a shelf. The Receiver is also rack mountable using the rack tray, can be surface-mounted, or can be placed on a shelf. When used with the included IR Extender module, this low-profile unit can be hidden away behind a display or in the equipment closet.

Create Video Walls & Virtual Matrix Systems

The video wall controller that is built into the Receivers accommodates any screen configuration up to 16x16 and provides great flexibility in sizing and manipulating live and signage content in demanding installations such as sports bars and restaurants, or in corporate, education, hospitality and retail establishments. When used in conjunction with the EXT-CU-LAN Matrix Controller, system configuration is automated and quick. Enhanced network security by separating the control and AV networks is also made possible when used with EXT-CU-LAN. Other control options include front panel buttons, web server interface, Telnet, UDP, and the Gefen Keyboard Switching Controller software (available for download at www.gefen.com). A built in 3-port Gigabit switch on each receiver allows the connection of additional receivers, providing daisy-chaining functionality. In applications such as digital signage, where there may be a need to replicate content on multiple displays throughout the installation, the ability to cascade receivers essentially removes the requirement for a cable to be connected directly to the main network switch, thereby extending the range of these units far beyond the limits of a point-to-point video distribution system. The Sender and Receiver can be used as nodes in a virtual matrix environment with a combination of just over 65,000 Sender and Receiver units where any source can be routed to any or all displays.

Point to Point IP Extension

The Sender and Receiver can be used as KVM extenders in a one-to-one system by connecting them directly with an Ethernet cable. Each cable run from a Sender to a Receiver or from a Sender or Receiver to the network switch can be up to 100 meters (330 feet).

4K Video Support

Input resolutions up to 4K 60 Hz 4:2:0 and HDR, and output resolutions up to 4K 30 Hz 4:4:4 are supported along with HDCP 2.2 and 1.4, and 7.1 channels of HBR (High Bit Rate) lossless and LPCM digital audio. The Gefen EXT-UHDV-KA-LANS-TX and RX feature HDMI and VGA inputs and outputs, and can support DVI when using Gefen HDMI-to-DVI cables. The Sender unit also features a VGA output for local monitoring of the source. The VGA input and output support VESA resolutions up to 1920x1200 at 60Hz (WUXGA).

Scale and convert video and audio from a VGA source for use with an HDMI Display

The Gefen EXT-VGAA-HD-SC scales and converts video from a VGA source to digital video from an HDMI output. It can also embed analog L/R audio into HDMI. Video can be scaled up to 1080p Full HD and 1920 x 1200 (WUXGA). An intuitive and comprehensive on-screen display (OSD) menu allows easy set-up and control. This product can be configured and updated using the Gefen Syner-G™ software suite. The Gefen Syner-G™ is a powerful set of software tools specifically designed to help discover, configure/customize, manage, monitor, and upgrade Gefen products. Wide power supply operating range of 6V to 24V DC offers installation flexibility for mobile use, in complex studio systems with a common power supply, and with remotely located power sources. A locking power supply connector, small footprint, and a surface-mountable enclosure facilitate easy and secure installation.

How It Works

Use the included VGA cable to connect a VGA source to the VGA input. Connect the included 3.5mm mini-stereo cable from the source to the L/R audio input. Use a Gefen locking HDMI cable to connect a display to the HDMI output. Connect the included 12V DC power supply to the unit and to an available electrical outlet. The power LED will glow in blue once the power supply is plugged in. Once the unit is connected, powered on, and displaying video, press the Menu button to bring up the On-Screen Display (OSD). The Up and Dn (down) buttons are used to navigate through the various functions of the OSD.
