Integrated DTP2 extension — IN1804 DI features one DTP2/XTP input and
•
IN1804 DO features one DTP2/XTP/HDBT output, which support transmission of video,
audio, and control up to 330 feet (100 meters) over a shielded CATx cable.
Compatible with CATx shielded twisted pair cable — IN1804 DI and
•
IN1804 DO support a maximum transmission distance of 330 feet (100 meters)
for all compatible resolutions when used with CATx shielded twisted pair cable.
Shielded twisted pair cabling with solid center conductor sizes of 24 AWG or better
is recommended for optimal performance.
Remote powering of DTP transmitter or receiver — IN1804 DI and IN1804 DO
•
can provide power to a DTP or DTP2 endpoint over the twisted pair connection,
eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the remote unit.
RS-232 insertion from the Ethernet control port — Saves system resources
•
and simplifies installation by enabling a control processor to access remote RS-232
devices over Ethernet.
Additional analog stereo audio signals accepted — IN1804 DI and IN1804 DO
•
support stereo analog audio signals for simultaneous transmission over the same
shielded twisted pair cable.
Bidirectional RS-232 and IR pass-through for AV device control —
•
Bidirectional RS-232 control and IR signals can be transmitted alongside the video
signal over the DTP connection, allowing the remote device to be controlled without
additional cabling. Bidirectional control extension eliminates control system wiring to
remote devices.
Compatible with all DTP-enabled products, plus XTP CrossPoint matrix
•
switchers — Enables mixing and matching with desktop and wallplate endpoints,
as well as other DTP or DTP2-enabled products to meet application requirements.
IN1804 DI and IN1804 DO can be integrated with XTP and XTP II CrossPoint matrix
switchers to provide connectivity between presentation spaces and a larger, facility-
wide system.
DTP2 output compatible with HDBaseT-enabled devices — The IN1804 DO
•
can be configured to send video and embedded audio, plus bidirectional RS-232
and IR signals, to an HDBaseT-enabled display.
RJ-45 signal and link LED indicators for DTP port — Provides a means for
•
validating signal flow and operation, allowing quick identification of connectivity
issues.
User-selectable HDCP authorization — Allows inputs 2 through 4 to appear HDCP
•
compliant or non-HDCP compliant to the connected source, which is beneficial if the
source automatically encrypts all content when connected to an HDCP-compliant
device. Protected material is not passed in non-HDCP mode.
• Key Minder continuously verifies HDCP compliance — Key Minder authenticates
and maintains continuous HDCP encryption between input and output devices to
ensure quick and reliable switching in professional AV environments, while enabling
simultaneous distribution of a single source signal to one or more displays.
EDID Minder manages EDID communication between connected devices —
•
EDID Minder ensures the source powers up properly and reliably outputs content for
display.
Custom EDID and output resolutions supported — User-defined scaling output
•
resolutions can be supported by uploading custom EDID files, or capturing EDID from a
display or other destination device.
