What is HDBASET?
HDBASET is a high-definition digital display interface, that is, through a 100-meter/328-foot CAT5e/6 cable, an integrated connection between a high-definition video source and a remote display is realized to provide uncompressed high-definition 4k video, audio, Ethernet, and control signals And a maximum power of 100 watts.
HDBASET does not reset a new interface like HDMI and DISPLAY PORT, but uses 8P8C (RJ45 interface), which is familiar to the public, which is also an Ethernet interface. The transmission medium uses a network cable that we are very easy to obtain and familiar with. Therefore, HDBASET technology is a transmission technology that can complete multiple functions with only one cable.
So, what is its function?
The defect of the HDMI interface prompted the emergence of the HDBASET interface. HDMI only transmits audio and video signals, and the distance is also limited in length. The quality of good brand HDMI signals can only be maintained at about 30 meters, and the price of the cable is also high for most users. Although there are some other wireless technologies as alternatives to HDMI. But their biggest problem is that there is no power transmission channel, and the transmission rate is difficult to break through.
HDBASET is a standard based on network transmission, which can gather audio, video, network, control signals and power supply lines together, and use ordinary network cables as transmission cables for transmission.
Relatively speaking, what are its advantages?
- The HDMI cable generally has a transmission distance of only about 30 meters, which greatly limits the use range of high-definition equipment, while the transmission distance of HDBASET can reach 100 meters.
- HDMI cables are expensive, while HDBASETuses cheap and easily available CAT5/6 Ethernet cables as the transmission medium.
- HDMI is a closed standard. Manufacturers need to pay a certain license fee for using the HDMI interface, while HDBASETis an open standard and no additional fees are required.
- The HDBASETstandard currently supports a transmission rate of 20Gb/s, which is 4 times the HDMI transmission rate of 5Gb/s, and can fully meet all uncompressed 1080p or clearer 4Kx2K video transmission.
