WyreStorm launches the EX-1UTP-IR-100-EDID and EX-1UTP-IR-100-POE, a pair of HDBaseT extenders able to transmit HD (one can do up to 4K resolution), audio and video, ethernet, control and power over up to 100m of Cat5e/6 cable.

WyreStorm extenderThe extenders provide a more stable, easier-to-install alternative over long HDMI cable runs with the benefit of 2-way IR, RS-232 control, 10/100 ethernet pass through via single cable and support for multi-channel DTS-HD Master Audio and Dolby Digital True HD.

To alleviate handshaking issues both models feature forcible EDID settings via dipswitch, allowing installers to either copy EDID from display to receiver or force 1080p 3D, 1080p Stereo, 1080i Stereo or 1080p 5.1 Multi-Channel EDID.

Each model also features HDMI pass through on the transmitting end to connect an additional display near the source.

According to WyreStorm the EX-1UTP-IR-100-POE allows uncompressed transmission of 36-bit 1080p video together with PoE. The  EX-1UTP-IR-100-EDID requires a 5V power supply at both transmission and receiver ends, but adds uncompressed 4K/UHD video support.
