Features in Depth

The BG-EXH-8K150C 8K HDBaseT extender is designed to deliver exceptional signal fidelity across extended distances while maintaining full compliance with HDMI 2.1 and HDCP 2.3 standards. It provides transmission ranges of up to 90m (295ft) for 8K@30Hz (4:4:4) and 4K@120Hz (4:4:4), 120m (394ft) for 4K@60Hz (4:4:4), and 150m (492ft) for 1080p resolutions using a single CAT cable. With video bandwidth up to 40Gbps FRL and 18Gbps TMDS, users can expect smooth, artifact-free playback even in demanding high-resolution environments.

Engineered for flexible integration, this extender supports bi-directional IR, RS-232, and CEC control pass-through, enabling seamless communication between connected devices. Advanced re-clocking technology ensures stable HDMI performance by correcting signal degradation, improving compatibility, and resolving HDCP handshake issues. Both the transmitter and receiver also support analog audio de-embedding, allowing users to extract and route audio independently to external sound systems.

For modern AV environments, the extender supports an extensive range of video and audio standards - including HDR10, HDR10+, Dolby Vision, and HLG - as well as immersive sound formats such as Dolby Atmos, TrueHD, and DTS-HD Master Audio. Additionally, Power over Cable (PoC) simplifies installation by powering both the transmitter and receiver from a single power source, minimizing cable clutter and enhancing deployment flexibility.
