4K30 DisplayPort Extender with Bi-directional IR, HDBaseT PoC, Long Range Mode Support

The VEX-DHBT-1080LR extends DisplayPort video and bi-directional IR signals over a single Cat. 5e/6 cable in a point-to-point configuration. It supports transmission distances up to 100 meters at 1080p or 70 meters at 4K resolution. The extender is HDCP 1.4 compliant and features PoC (Power over Cable), auto power-saving, and built-in Auto EDID configuration to ensure optimized video output.

This solution is suitable for schools, military facilities, offices, medical environments, control rooms, and digital signage applications.

Power over Cable (PoC) enables DC power transmission over the Ethernet cable, allowing either the transmitter or receiver to power both units. Only one power adapter is required, which is ideal when a power outlet is unavailable at one side.

The bi-directional IR extension supports a full frequency range from 38 kHz to 56 kHz for reliable remote control. The distance between the emitter head and the unit’s IR port can be extended for flexible installation (optional IR cable up to 3 meters available).

Remote Output Configuration (Slide Switch Settings)

To balance transmission distance, resolution, and power consumption, the extender provides the following operating modes:

Long Reach – Extends transmission distance up to 150 m at 1080p by reducing resolution

Normal – Factory default; supports 1080p and 4K resolutions

Auto Power Saving – Automatically reduces power consumption when operating at maximum 4K resolution
