Product Features
Technical Overview
The VE813A operates as a transmitter-receiver pair that converts HDMI and USB signals to HDBaseT for transmission over standard network cabling. The system supports 4K resolution at 30Hz with 4:4:4 chroma sampling, ensuring accurate color reproduction for professional video applications. Two HDMI ports (one input, one output) on both units allow for local monitoring or daisy-chaining, while four USB 2.0 ports provide comprehensive peripheral connectivity.
The extender utilizes HDBaseT Class A technology, which delivers power, video, USB, and control over a single cable while maintaining signal integrity across the maximum 328-foot distance. This eliminates the need for separate power cables at the receiver end in many installations. The system is compatible with PC platforms and supports EDID management for reliable display detection and configuration.
Relevant factors for this section include Connectivity Technology, Number of Computers Supported, Number of Remote Users Supported, Graphic Mode. When those points are considered together, they give buyers a clearer picture of how the product is equipped, how it fits into deployment, and what kind of day-to-day role it is meant to support.

Deployment / Use Cases
The VE813A is engineered for professional environments where source equipment must be located at a distance from displays and users. Its robust signal extension capabilities make it ideal for control rooms in broadcasting, security, or industrial settings where operators need to access computers housed in server racks while viewing content on large-format displays.
In digital signage deployments, the extender allows media players to be centrally managed in equipment closets while driving 4K displays throughout retail spaces, corporate lobbies, or transportation hubs. For conference rooms and classrooms, it enables clean installations with computers hidden in credenzas while maintaining full interactivity with displays and peripherals at the presentation area. The system also supports KVM applications where users need to control remote computers with local peripherals and monitors.
Control Room Integration
Extend computer signals from rack-mounted servers to operator consoles with full USB peripheral control, ideal for broadcast, security, and command center applications.
Digital Signage Distribution
Centralize media players in secure locations while driving 4K displays throughout facilities with reliable, long-distance signal transmission over existing network infrastructure.

FAQ
What is the maximum distance this extender can transmit 4K video?
The ATEN VE813A can transmit 4K HDMI video, USB data, and control signals up to 328 feet (100 meters) over a single Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat6a cable. This distance is achieved using HDBaseT Class A technology, which maintains signal integrity without compression across the entire range, making it suitable for large venues, distributed systems, and installations where source equipment must be located far from displays.
How many USB devices can I connect to the remote receiver unit?
The receiver unit includes four USB 2.0 ports that support keyboards, mice, webcams, storage devices, and other USB peripherals. The ExtremeUSB technology ensures full USB 2.0 compatibility and bandwidth, allowing multiple devices to operate simultaneously at the remote location without requiring a local computer. This enables complete workstation functionality at the display end of the extension.
Is this extender rack-mountable for professional installations?
Yes, both the transmitter and receiver units are designed for rack mounting and include a mounting kit in the package. Each unit has a compact 1U height of 1.13 inches (28.70 mm) and features mounting ears for standard 19-inch rack installation. This makes the VE813A ideal for integration into AV racks, server rooms, equipment closets, and other professional environments where organized equipment mounting is required.
What video resolutions and refresh rates does the VE813A support?
The extender supports 4K resolution up to 4096x2160 at 30Hz with 4:4:4 chroma sampling for accurate color reproduction. It is compatible with various HD and Ultra HD resolutions including 1080p, 1440p, and 4K formats. The HDBaseT technology transmits uncompressed video without latency, making it suitable for applications requiring real-time video display such as live production, gaming, or interactive presentations.
What cables are included with the VE813A extender kit?
The package includes a 6-foot (1.8m) HDMI cable and a 6-foot (1.8m) USB cable for immediate connectivity between your source devices and the extender units. For the long-distance transmission between transmitter and receiver, you will need to provide your own Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat6a network cable up to 328 feet in length. The kit also includes two power adapters, one for each unit.
Can this extender be used for KVM (Keyboard, Video, Mouse) applications?
Yes, the VE813A is specifically designed for KVM extension applications. It transmits video from a remote computer to a local display while extending USB connectivity for keyboard, mouse, and other peripherals back to the computer. This allows users to control a computer located up to 328 feet away as if it were locally connected, making it ideal for control rooms, server management, digital signage control, and distributed workstation environments.
