Kramer Electronics has introduced the SID-X2N, Kramer’s HDBaseT four-in-one twisted pair transmitter – a high-performance, cost-effective, step-in commander from the Digital Step-in Family. The unit includes four input types: computer graphics video, HDMI, DVI and DisplayPort. In addition, the SID-X2N includes an unbalanced stereo audio input and output.

The SID-X2N works as a stand-alone unit together with the HDBaseT receivers, e.g. the TP-580RXR/WP-580RXR, using RS-232 commands over a twisted pair cable. Although this product can be used with any Cat cable, Kramer recommends the use of the Kramer BC−HDKat6a cable, to reach up to 130m (430ft) in normal mode, and up to 180m (590ft) in XTRA (Long Reach) mode (1080p @60Hz @24BPP).

The SID-X2N all-in-one transmitter has several unique features making it the perfect solution for designing your state-of-the-art boardroom: compatible with both analog and digital AV signals, unbalanced stereo audio input and output, a single twisted pair cable carries both data and control, switching between inputs is available when working with anHDBaseT receiver using RS-232 commands.

The Step-In multi-Format Inputs Family includes also the SID-X1N with DGKat output and the SID-X3N with HDMI output. The family’s versatile products support any “Bring-Your-Own-Device” requirements, therefore is the top choice for designing your up-to-the-minute boardroom.
