March 4, 2019

Key Digital has released its KD-X222PO HDBaseT extender set with a slim chassis design. The device can send HDMI video and audio up to 125 feet with 4K resolution using CAT5E/6UTP/STP cabling and up to 230 feet at 1080p resolution with CAT5e/6 cabling, according to a press release.

Key Digital built the device with support for HDR10 at 4K 24/25/30 video for more "life-like images," according to the release. Other features include:

• IR sensor powering via +5V on the IR In port.
• Can be used to extend RS-232 signals.
• Supports Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Atmos and DTS-HD Master Audio.
• Features EDID handshaking control and HDCP authentication.

"The great thing about the KD-X222PO is that it's not just an extension kit, but it is also a professional diagnostics kit with our Full Buffer Technology built-in," Jonathan Ferry, national training manager, Key Digital, said in the release. "By connecting into the unit via RS-232 integrators can collect diagnostics from their connected source and display on all of their HDMI linking information to detect any problems and provide the tools to overcome any connectivity issues experienced in the field."
