The BZBGEAR BG-IPGEAR-XTREME is a high-performance HDMI 2.1 over IP multicast system designed to deliver Ultra-HD 4K@120Hz 4:4:4 video over a Cat.5e network up to 100 meters (330 feet). With support for bi-directional IR, RS-232, and USB 3.1, this versatile solution ensures seamless transmission of high-resolution video and audio while maintaining compatibility with modern AV control systems.
This system is ideal for a variety of applications, including digital signage, healthcare, corporate AV, gaming, and large-scale video broadcasting. The BG-IPGEAR-XTREME supports flexible point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and multicast configurations, enabling scalable video distribution across multiple displays.
Video Performance
At the core of the BG-IPGEAR-XTREME is its HDMI 2.1 compliance, supporting uncompressed 4K@120Hz 4:4:4 video transmission. This ensures high-fidelity video reproduction with exceptional color depth and clarity, making it an ideal solution for applications such as digital signage, esports, medical imaging, and professional AV installations. The system fully supports HDR (High Dynamic Range), including HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision, to deliver enhanced contrast, brightness, and color accuracy.
The inclusion of Variable Refresh Rate (VRR) and Auto Low Latency Mode (ALLM) further optimizes performance for gaming and interactive applications, reducing input lag and eliminating screen tearing. These features make the BG-IPGEAR-XTREME an excellent choice for applications requiring real-time responsiveness.
Transmission Technology
Utilizing standard Cat.5e/6 network cables, the BG-IPGEAR-XTREME extends HDMI signals up to 100 meters (330 feet) without signal degradation. The system employs a proprietary low-latency codec (<1 frame delay) for real-time video streaming, ensuring smooth playback across all connected displays.
It supports point-to-point, point-to-multipoint, and full multicast configurations, making it a scalable solution for large AV deployments. Intelligent network management features, including IGMP Snooping and 802.1Q VLAN support, optimize multicast performance by preventing unnecessary network congestion.
Audio Capabilities
The BG-IPGEAR-XTREME supports uncompressed multi-channel HDMI audio formats, including Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD Master Audio, and LPCM 7.1.
Additionally, the inclusion of eARC/ARC (Enhanced Audio Return Channel) allows for high-quality audio transmission from the display back to an AV receiver or sound system, enabling an immersive sound experience without additional cabling.
Control & Integration
This system is designed for seamless integration with AV control ecosystems. The main control interface is software-based. The inclusion of bi-directional IR and RS-232 control allows for remote device operation, making it compatible with third-party control systems.
Please Note: 2 units are required for a complete Tx/Rx application. As these are transceivers, they can act as both but 2 are needed.
