Crestron Delivers a Unique Single-Wire
Control and HDMI Extender Solution
Crestron has released an HDMI-over-fiber transmitter and receiver
pair that provides a remarkably powerful, easy to install
solution for extending uncompressed HDMI and IR/RS-232 control
signals up to 1000 feet over a single multimode fiber connection.

Ideal for commercial and residential retrofits, the HD-TX1-F
and HD-RX1-F make it easy to add an HDMI device in an analog
room, or extend an HDMI signal and device control from, for
example, a home theater to another room or area in or around
the home. Now integrators can add a new source or display
device with ease, even after a project has been completed.
The TX1-F and RX1-F enable a source or display device to be
located remotely from the central equipment. Components such
as Crestron HDMI switchers (HD-MD8x1 and HD-MD8x2) or Adagio
Media System (AMS) can be installed in the central rack and
feed a display device or receive a signal from a computer
or disc player up to 1000 feet away. The TX1-F and RX1-F can
also connect two HDMI switchers in different parts of a building,
allowing signals from one to be shared with the other.
The TX1-F and RX1-F extend uncompressed digital video, audio,
and control signals; support HDMI 1.3a with Deep Color and
7.1 channel HD lossless audio; pass EDID, CEC, and HDCP, and
handle resolutions up to 1920x1200 and 1080p60. Using Crestron
adapters, these products are also compatible with DisplayPort
multimode or DVI devices.
No programming or configuration is needed to implement the
pair, and a 12VDC power pack is included. Built-in universal
IR repeaters have a range of up to 192kHz, and the bidirectional
RS-232 extenders reach up to 115k Baud.
Three choices of Crestron CresFiber pre-terminated multimode
fiber cables will be available soon, simplifying installation
even further: standard in-wall; armored in-wall (for more
rugged environments), and transparent fishing wire
fiber for virtually invisible outside-the-wall cable runs.
