Tripp Lite B013-HU-4K: HDBaseT KVM and HDMI Extender
The Tripp Lite B013-HU-4K is a complete KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) console extender kit designed to overcome distance limitations in commercial, industrial, and IT environments. This solution uses the reliable HDBaseT standard to transmit high-definition video, two-port USB, and IR control signals over a single, inexpensive Cat6 cable.
The kit consists of a transmitter (connects to the source computer) and a receiver (connects to the console/peripherals), offering flexible distance capabilities:
-
4K times 2K (3840 * 2160$) @ $30 Hz: Up to 130 ft 40m
-
1080p @ 60Hz: Up to 230ft 70m
