On the audio side, Xantech offers the XT-CAT-ARC-KIT audio over CAT cable solution, able to transmit digital audio signals up to 300m (192kHz signals up to 100m). As a plug-and-play device, it extends both optical and coaxial digital inputs concurrently. Meanwhile the XT-DAC-12 converts either coaxial or optical signals from a digital signal to analog stereo audio, and includes a digital converter for converting an optical signal to a coaxial signal. Finally, the XT-DIG-11 converts coaxial or optical digital audio signals from one signal type to another, with support for 192kHz sample rates for enhanced sound reproduction. Outputs are simultaneous, meaning audio can be distributed to multiple locations.
A final product is the HDMI-SM-4K18G-- an HDMI signal manager helping installers solve common issues with distributing higher bandwidth HDMI signals over longer distances, including HDMI compatibility, HDCP 2.2, clock stretching, EDID and and handshaking.
