Black Box VX-1001-KIT HDMI Extender Kit
Overview
The Black Box VX-1001-KIT is a component kit designed to extend 4K HDMI video, USB data, and CATx signals over a single Ethernet cable. This setup is critical for digital signage deployments, video conferencing rooms, or any scenario where you need to place displays or USB peripherals at a distance from the source device without signal degradation. The kit includes both a transmitter and receiver unit, enabling point-to-point extension up to 100 meters (328 feet).
Compatibility
This extender kit is designed for 4K HDMI sources and displays. It supports USB 2.0 for peripheral connectivity, allowing for keyboard, mouse, or touch screen interaction at the remote location. The CATx extension relies on standard Ethernet cabling (Cat5e or Cat6 recommended for optimal performance at maximum distances). It is intended for direct point-to-point connections and does not inherently support network switching or multicast distribution without additional hardware.
Installation Notes
For optimal 4K performance and maximum distance, use Cat6 or Cat6a Ethernet cabling. Ensure the USB connection is stable and the source device can provide sufficient power if the peripheral is bus-powered. The units are powered via included power adapters, simplifying installation in environments without readily available PoE.
