The HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR is a DM Lite® 4K60 4:4:4 transmitter designed to interoperate with a DM Lite® receiver or DMPS Lite™ switcher. The HDMI® input of the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR enables the transmission of an HDMI signal. The USB-C® input with DisplayPort™ Alt Mode capability enables the transmission of a DisplayPort AV signal. A CAT5e or higher twisted pair cable is used to connect the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR to the DM Lite receiver or DMPS Lite switcher. For 1080p, WUXGA, and 2K signals, a cable length of up to 230 ft (70 m) is supported. For UHD and 4K signals, a cable length of up to 130 ft (40 m) is supported.
Interoperability with a DM Lite Receiver or DMPS Lite Switcher
The DM Lite output port of the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR must be connected to a DM Lite input port of a DM Lite receiver or DMPS Lite switcher. Examples of supported DM Lite 4K60 4:4:4 receivers are the HD-RX-4KZ-101, HD-RXA-4KZ-101, HD-RXC-4KZ-101, and HD-RXCA-4KZ-101. Supported DM Lite 4K60 4:2:0 receivers are the HD-RX-101-C-E, HD-RXC-101-C-E, HD-RX-201-C-E, HD-RX-101-C-1G-E, and HD-RXC-101-C-1G-E. Supported DMPS Lite switchers are the HD-PS622, HD-PS621, HD-PS402, HD-PS401, and HD-RX-4K-210-C-E(-POE).
The HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR can be configured and controlled only when it is used with a DMPS Lite switcher. The web interface of the switcher can be used to configure the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR. In addition, control system programming and .AV Framework™ software support of the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR is hosted by the switcher.
4K60 4:4:4 and HDR Support
The HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR supports video resolutions up to 4K60 with 4:4:4 color sampling. HDR10, HDR10+, and Dolby Vision® video formats are also supported.
Automatic Switching of Inputs
When the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR is used with a DMPS Lite switcher, the web interface of the switcher or control system programming hosted by the switcher can be used to configure the AV switching behavior of the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR. Switching between the HDMI and USB-C DisplayPort inputs can occur based on the last connected input or on the routing priority assigned to each input. In addition, input selection push buttons on the front panel of the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR enable the desired input to be selected manually.
USB-C DisplayPort Input with Charging Capability
When the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR is powered by the included power pack, the USB-C DisplayPort input can charge the connected AV source (for example, a laptop) with up to 60W of power. If the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR is powered by a remote DM Lite receiver or DMPS Lite switcher, no charging capability is provided by the USB-C input.
Compact, Surface-Mountable Design
Compact in design, the HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR can be mounted onto a flat surface such as the underside of a table, behind a credenza, or inside a podium. It can also be attached to a single rack rail in the back of an equipment cabinet. The HD-TX-4KZ-211-CHGR can receive power from the included power pack or from the remote DM Lite receiver or DMPS Lite switcher.
