SIOUX FALLS, S.D., November 21st, 2024 – AVPro Edge (avproedge.com) has introduced the AC-EX150-BKT, a benchmark-setting HDMI extension kit developed to provide integrators with 150 meters of range when using HDMI connectivity. The new kit offers 50 meters of additional reach when compared to conventional solutions, and effectively overcomes key challenges encountered by AV integrators seeking to affordably leverage legacy network infrastructure to transmit HDMI signals over long runs. Integrators now have a clear solution for passing HDMI signals through punch-down blocks and cable splices.
“The AC-EX150-BKT is the ultimate solution for AV integrators seeking to overcome infrastructure and distance obstacles that hamper conventional HDMI extension technologies,” explained Sam Metivier, Product Manager for AVPro Edge. “This kit delivers a stable HDMI signal over long runs and is easy to use—creating opportunities for integrators to satisfy their clients without the significant cost of replacing legacy category wiring. The AC-EX150-BKT is another engineering triumph from AVPro Edge.”
