Product Features
Technical Overview
This extender transmits uncompressed 4K Ultra HD video at a resolution of 3840 x 2160 pixels over a single Category 6 twisted-pair cable, maintaining signal integrity across its maximum rated distance of 230 feet (70.1 meters). The connection is entirely wired, ensuring stable, low-latency performance without wireless interference. The hardware interface includes one HDMI input on the transmitter and two HDMI outputs on the receiver, enabling simultaneous mirroring to two displays.
The system utilizes two RJ-45 network ports—one on each unit—for the Cat6 link. This design leverages existing structured cabling infrastructure, reducing installation complexity and cost compared to dedicated HDMI fiber or coaxial solutions. The extender supports standard video modes and does not require external compression or signal processing, preserving original source quality.
Relevant factors for this section include Connectivity Technology, Number of Input Devices Supported, Number of Output Devices Supported, Graphics Modes. 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.
Key Product Advantages
The B127A-2A1-BHBH extender provides a cost-effective and reliable method for distributing high-resolution video beyond the typical limits of HDMI cables. Its use of standard Cat6 cable significantly reduces material expenses and simplifies long-run installations compared to proprietary or fiber-based extenders.
Dual-Output Flexibility
Drive two displays simultaneously from a single source, perfect for presentations, monitoring, or digital signage arrays without requiring additional splitters or source devices.
Professional Mounting Options
Includes hardware for both rack-mount and wall-plate installation, offering deployment versatility in equipment racks, behind displays, or within structured media enclosures.
Global Power Compatibility
The included power supply accepts 100-240V AC input and comes with four international plug adapters (North America, Europe, U.K., Australia), supporting worldwide deployment without additional adapters.
Deployment / Use Cases
This video extender is suited for commercial, educational, and residential AV installations where source equipment—such as media players, computers, or game consoles—needs to be placed away from displays. Its 230-foot range and use of Cat6 cable make it practical for runs between floors, across large rooms, or from central equipment racks to remote screens.
Common applications include digital signage networks in retail stores or airports, where a central media server feeds content to multiple displays. In corporate or education environments, it enables clean setups in conference rooms or lecture halls by locating noisy or bulky equipment in a separate closet. For home theaters, it allows placing AV receivers and source components in a dedicated rack while maintaining a 4K signal to the primary display and a secondary zone.
Conference Room AV
Extend HDMI from a tabletop interface box or lectern PC to a wall-mounted display and a projector, ensuring crisp 4K content sharing.
Digital Signage Distribution
Connect a single media player to two displays in different locations using existing network cabling, simplifying content management and reducing hardware costs.
What's in the Box
The package includes all necessary components for immediate deployment.

FAQ
What is the maximum distance this video extender can transmit a 4K signal?
The Tripp Lite B127A-2A1-BHBH can transmit a 4K UHD signal up to 230 feet (approximately 70.1 meters) when using a single Category 6 twisted-pair network cable between the transmitter and receiver. This distance is suitable for most commercial and residential installations, allowing source equipment to be placed in a separate room or equipment rack.
How many displays can I connect to this extender system?
This extender system supports two simultaneous displays. The receiver unit features two HDMI output ports, allowing you to mirror the same 4K UHD video and audio signal to two monitors, TVs, or projectors. It is ideal for presentations, digital signage, or multi-screen setups without requiring an additional HDMI splitter.
What type of cable do I need to connect the transmitter and receiver?
You need a standard Category 6 (Cat6) twisted-pair Ethernet cable. The extender uses the cable's twisted pairs to carry the HDMI signal, not for network data. Cat6 cable is widely available, cost-effective, and supports the full 230-foot distance at 4K resolution. Ensure the cable is terminated with RJ-45 connectors.
Can this extender be mounted in a standard equipment rack?
Yes, the transmitter and receiver are both rack-mountable. The package includes mounting hardware that allows you to install the units in a standard 19-inch equipment rack. Additionally, the wall-plate form factor enables discreet installation behind displays or in wall cavities, providing flexibility for various AV integration scenarios.
What power supply is included, and will it work internationally?
The kit includes a universal external power supply that accepts input voltages from 100V to 240V AC at 50/60 Hz, making it compatible with power standards worldwide. It also comes with four plug adapters for North America, Europe, the United Kingdom, and Australia, allowing for immediate use in most regions without purchasing additional adapters.
