Tripp Lite B162-001-POE 4K Hdmi Over Ip Extender Poe

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE B162-001-POE is a 4K HDMI over IP extender with Power over Ethernet (PoE) support, designed to transmit high-resolution video signals across standard network infrastructure. It converts HDMI video output into an IP-based signal, allowing distribution over Cat5e or Cat6 cabling to a remote display. This type of extender is commonly installed by AV integrators, IT professionals, and low-voltage technicians in commercial and enterprise environments where long cable runs or multi-display distribution are required.

This extender suits applications where a 4K HDMI source must reach a display beyond the standard HDMI cable distance limit. Typical scenarios include conference rooms, digital signage installations, control rooms, and enterprise AV distribution systems. The PoE feature simplifies installation by eliminating the need for a separate power supply at the remote end, drawing power directly through the network cable from a PoE-capable switch or injector.

Key Features

• Supports 4K HDMI video transmission over IP network infrastructure
• Power over Ethernet (PoE) eliminates the need for a dedicated power outlet at the remote unit
• Extends HDMI signal beyond standard cable distance limits using Cat5e or Cat6 cabling
• Suited for enterprise AV, digital signage, and control room deployments
• Single-unit (EA) packaging for straightforward procurement

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or direct-install extender for enterprise AV and IP video distribution systems requiring 4K HDMI signal extension over structured cabling networks.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or qualified AV integrator. Power down all connected source and display equipment before making HDMI or network connections. Ensure the network switch or PoE injector supplying power meets the PoE standard required by this unit before connecting. Follow applicable low-voltage wiring codes and the facility network administrator guidelines when integrating with existing LAN infrastructure.
