The B160-100-CSI RGB Component Video + Audio over IP Extender Receiver works with a Tripp Lite B160-Series transmitter (sold separately) to extend and distribute component video + stereo audio, RS-232 serial and IR (infrared) remote signals from the source to the display located up to 328 feet (100 meters) away, which is more than 200 feet farther than a traditional Cat5e/6 solution. By adding a chain of low-cost unmanaged network switches, such as Tripp Lite's NG5, you can continue extending the distance between source and display up to 328 feet per switch.Create a multi-in, multi-out installation with up to 64 transmitters and 255 receivers by connecting dedicated managed Ethernet network switches with Internet Group Management Protocol (IGMP), such as Tripp Lite's NSS-G16D2. With a compatible B160-Series transmitter, this receiver works with any analog or digital source, including HDMI, VGA and DisplayPort™, allowing you to mix and match technologies and use existing source devices. An IGMP-enabled switch will let you manage all connections for centralized control over which sources show on which displays.The B160-100-CSI supports video resolutions up to 1080i. It extends IR control signals that control a source, such as a Blu-ray™ player, from a remote display, as well as RS-232 signals at serial baud rates up to 57600 Bps. It mounts to a wall, rack or pole using the included hardware.
