A video extender is a device designed for the long-distance transmission of video signals.
Its functionality is based on the conversion and compression of the video signal at the transmitter side, followed by transmission through various media such as optical fibers, LAN cables, or HDBaseT technology to the receiver. At the receiving end, the digital signal is then reconverted into a video signal for display. This process ensures the integrity of the video over extended distances.
Video extenders are invaluable in numerous applications like digital signage, conducting remote meetings, facilitating presentations in conference rooms, and supporting remote teaching and online learning in educational environments. Their advantages include extended transmission range beyond the capabilities of standard cables, high-quality video output, immunity to noise interference, scalability, the capability to connect and manage multiple devices, and enhanced control features for remote operation and configuration adjustments.
