The Blustream HEX150CS-KIT supports HDMI, bi-directional IR, RS-232 and PoC up to lengths of 150m over a single CAT cable.
The Blustream Platinum Range of HDBaseT™ products offers the very best in performance and flexibility.
The HEX150CS-KIT extender set is an industry-leading HDMI 2.0 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 HDCP 2.2 HDBaseT™ solution utilising CSC technology with video down conversion.
The HEX150CS-KIT supports HDMI, bi-directional IR, RS-232 and PoC up to lengths of 150m over a single CAT cable. The HEX150CS-KIT also provides enhanced features including ARC via HDMI or optical (S/PDIF) and Ethernet pass-through.
• Advanced HDBaseT™ technology offering distribution of video and audio over a single CAT cable
• Advanced Colour Space Conversion (CSC) supports HDMI 2.0 18Gbps specification including HDR support
• Video down-conversion on outputs allowing a display only capable of supporting lower video resolutions (4K 60Hz 4:2:0 or 1080p) to receive 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 or 4K 60Hz 4:2:0 video content while still showing maximum original 4K UHD resolution on remaining video outputs
• Supports 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 UHD video up to 100m
• Extends HDMI 1080p video up to 150m (HDBaseT™ long-reach mode)
• HDMI loop out on the transmitter
• Supports all industry standard video resolutions including VGA-WUXGA and 480i-4K
• HDMI re-clocking on the HDBaseT™ receiver to help solve HDMI, HDCP, compatibility, and handshaking issues

Due to the data rate of HDBaseT™ technology being capped at 10.2Gbps, it is unable to pass the latest native 4K UHD resolutions of 4K 60Hz 4:4:4. There is now a requirement to integrate video resolutions with data speeds up to 18Gbps across a multi-zone AV environment. Blustream have implemented CSC (Colour Space Conversion) technology into our latest products to ensure 4K HDR signals can now be supported over the limited infrastructure of HDBaseT™. Colour Space Conversion reduces the data rate of the HDMI signal by converting the colour space from 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 to a lower format. Within Colour Space Conversion technology the native resolution and frame rate remain constant from end to end. The only part of the signal that is converted during transmission is the colour. Blustream CSC products do not support HDR10+ or the dynamic variation of Dolby Vision due to the way these specific variations of dynamic HDR (dHDR) are encoded. These codecs transmit repeated metadata packets throughout the transmission of any media making it impossible at this stage to convert in the same way using CSC technology.
Founded in Melbourne, Australia, Blustream is the creation of an ambitious team of AV product managers. Utilising a wealth of experience within the consumer electronics and multi-room AV industry, we have set about delivering HDMI distribution products that offer more for the AV architect and installer, more in terms of product features and more in terms of value for money.
