What is HDBaseT?

[@fuseteam]

No other cable can do this Usb-c: allow me to introduce myself

[@enterchannelname7568]

True, but not at that distance

[@fuseteam]

@@enterchannelname7568 true, sometimes i wonder if should combine them HDBasedT for the cabeling, usb-c for the wall ports

[@enterchannelname7568]

@@fuseteam I'm actually curious of their latency, cause hdbt is used more for presentation and display systems with long cable runs, but that would be interesting to see if you could use usb c with them!

[@fuseteam]

@@enterchannelname7568 yupp agreed, we would just need some sort of converter i suppose 🤔

[@markamacias]

Looking forward to this becoming a consumer standard.

[@rodprieto3575]

Very excited about the present and future of our industry! Looking forward to working closely with the HDBaseT Alliance.

As long as I worked with Analog and Digital CCTV cameras and media/network systems, I have never seen the HDBaseT connectors. By my own knowledge, HDBT got depreciated and forgotten as a standard

[@ScarletRed.]

What is this? I have 2 boxes tx70 the other rx70 found at tag sale grabbed a box of wires $3 for all. I have no clue what the are for I assumed it was for Bluetooth.

Where can you buy the HDBT Switch? Is this product still available?

[@amlpktips1191]

AVpro sells them www.avprostore.com/searchresults.asp?Submit=Go&Search=hdbt

[@DaftRebel]

How can I know if my TV is HDBaseT ready? it already has an ethernet port on the back :D

[@tld8102]

Can we use a standard network switch?

[@marcobarozzi1579]

can indeed. in the video he calls it switch but what he really meant was a matrix. where you plug sources and outputs and redirect them wherever you want. a network switch would help, say if you had multiple matrixes, or multiple devices whatsoever that need to be in the same network. so that also for example you could hook the controlling device to that very same network and be able to control them all.

[@fuseteam]

​@@marcobarozzi1579ah that's why i can't find it

[@thirtythree680]

Can someone tell me what the T stands for please? Twisted Pair?

[@fuseteam]

It comes from networking 10BaseT, 100BaseT etc, but yes likely xd some just say 'BaseT' means it's going over copper

[@jp-qt7fq]

Uncompressed 4k Video Use something in the range of 3GBps to 7GBps or even more. How can Cat5 or Cat6 cable can sustaind this speed ? Would it be 10GBASE-CX4 copper ? If yes distance is limited to 15m and I'm not even shure it use Plain cat5 cable ..... If it use 1gbps ... then Video must be compressed

[@jp-qt7fq]

Got My answers , en.wikipedia.org/wiki/HDBaseT , 4k will be compressed

[@bobstalnaker9706]

Very problematic, even with high end cables

[@richard_M7116]

HDBaseT can extend signals up to 100 meters over a single CAT cable, making it suitable for medium to long-distance installations. It is plug & play but the transmitter & receiver are around £500 each. Supports 4K Ultra HD. 18Gbps bandwidth. I believe the Cat6a/Cat7 devices can only transmit up to 40M. There is a newer standard called AV over IP or HDMI over IP this uses your network switches for longer distances. It 4K Ultra HD, and even 8K resolutions. It is commonly used in various scenarios such as digital signage, video walls, multi-room AV systems, and large-scale installations. Requires IP configuration. The network switches need to be engineered for AV over IP & support Audio Video Bridging (AVB). AVB is used most often when very low latency is required. The AV codecs generally use 1Gbps - 10Gbps per stream. The switch ports vary from 1GbE, 10GbE & 25GbE.
