Key Product Advantages
This extender delivers several distinct benefits for professional AV integrators and IT managers. Its ability to transmit uncompressed 4K video at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma ensures that detailed imagery, fine text, and vibrant colors are preserved end-to-end, which is critical for digital signage, design workstations, and medical imaging displays.
Simplified Power Delivery
The Power over Cable design eliminates the need for separate power adapters at the remote receiver location. Power is carried over the same Cat6 cable used for video data, reducing installation time, minimizing cable runs, and creating a cleaner, more professional installation.
Integrated Signal Repeater
The built-in repeater actively boosts the video signal, enabling reliable transmission at the full 70-meter specification. This ensures consistent performance without signal degradation, dropouts, or image artifacts, even in electrically noisy environments.
Global Deployment Ready
Included international plug adapters for North America, Europe, the U.K., and Australia allow for immediate use in multi-region deployments. Combined with TAA compliance and RoHS/REACH/WEEE environmental certifications, this kit meets stringent procurement and regulatory standards for government and enterprise projects.
Deployment / Use Cases
The B127A-111-BDTDA extender kit is engineered for scenarios where source equipment and displays must be separated by significant distance without compromising video quality. Its primary application is in digital signage systems, where a central media player can drive multiple remote 4K displays across a retail store, airport, or corporate lobby using cost-effective Cat6 infrastructure.
In corporate and education environments, it enables clean conference room and classroom setups by placing noisy or bulky computers in a separate closet while extending the video signal to wall-mounted displays or projectors. Control room and broadcast installations benefit from the extended reach and signal integrity for monitoring critical 4K feeds. The surface/wall-mount design and included hardware facilitate neat, secure installations in both permanent and temporary setups.
Digital Signage Networks
Drive high-resolution promotional or informational content to multiple displays from a centralized media server or PC located up to 70 meters away.
AV System Integration
Integrate seamlessly into professional AV systems for boardrooms, lecture halls, and houses of worship, extending signals from switchers or processors to distant projectors or large-format displays.

User Manual
FAQ
What is the maximum resolution and refresh rate this extender supports?
The Tripp Lite B127A-111-BDTDA extender supports a maximum video resolution of 3840 x 2160, which is 4K UHD. It delivers this resolution at a refresh rate of 60 Hz, ensuring smooth motion for video content and responsive interaction for desktop applications. Importantly, it maintains 4:4:4 chroma subsampling at this resolution, meaning there is no color compression, which is essential for accurate text, graphics, and color-critical work.
How far can I run the video signal with this kit?
This extender kit is rated for a maximum operating distance of 229.66 feet, which is approximately 70 meters. This distance is achieved using standard Category 6 (Cat6) twisted-pair Ethernet cable. The integrated repeater within the system actively boosts the signal to maintain integrity over this full specified range, preventing signal degradation that can cause flickering or dropouts in longer cable runs typical in commercial installations.
Does this extender require separate power at the receiver location?
No, it does not. A key feature of this kit is Power over Cable (PoC). The transmitter sends both power and the video signal over the same Cat6 cable to the receiver. This eliminates the need for an additional power outlet or power adapter at the remote display location, significantly simplifying installation, reducing cable clutter, and increasing deployment flexibility in spaces where power access is limited.
What types of video inputs and outputs does it have?
The transmitter unit features one HDMI input and one DisplayPort input, providing flexibility for connecting different source devices like PCs, media players, or laptops. The receiver unit provides one HDMI output to connect to your display, monitor, or projector. Additionally, the system utilizes three RJ-45 network ports (on the combined units) for the Cat6 cable connection that carries the extended signal and power between them.
Is this product suitable for government or institutional purchasing?
Yes. The Tripp Lite B127A-111-BDTDA is TAA (Trade Agreements Act) Compliant. TAA compliance is a requirement for many U.S. federal government and institutional procurement contracts, ensuring the product is manufactured in or substantially transformed in a designated country. This designation makes it a viable option for schools, government agencies, and other entities bound by these specific sourcing regulations.
What is included in the box for installation?
The kit is comprehensive and includes the transmitter unit, the receiver unit (which contains the repeater), an external universal power supply (100-240V input), a 4.5-foot power cord, and four international plug adapters for North America, Europe, the U.K., and Australia. It also comes with all necessary mounting hardware for surface or wall installation and an owner's manual to guide setup and operation.
