8x8 HDBaseT™ CSC ARC Matrix - 70m (4K 60Hz 4:4:4 upto 40m), ARC, Bi-directional IR, RS-232, PoC, Simultaneous HDMI / HDBaseT™ on Output 1, Video Smart Scaling on HDBaseT™ Outputs, Independent Audio Matrix, Line LevelVolume Control, RS-232 & TCP/IP Control, HDCP 2.2 Compliant, Web GUI

The HMXL88ARC HDBaseT™ Matrix delivers new levels of advanced audio integration into our Essential range of 4Kvideo matrix solutions.

The HMXL88ARC is an 8x8 HDMI 2.0 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 matrix that uses CSC (Colour Space Conversion) technology to deliver 18Gbps HDMI over distances of up to 40m (1080p to 70m).

The HMXL88ARC features enhanced audio routing via an integrated 26x8 audio matrix.

This enables the audio both from displays and sources, tobe embedded and routed through the system at the users discretion.

The HMXL88ARC includes a simultaneous HDBaseT™ / HDMI output on output 1, video smart scaling on all HDBaseT™ outputs, and PoC (Power over Cable) to the remote RX70CS HDBaseT™ receivers.

A in-built web browser interface for configuration and control of the Matrix, along with RS-232 and IR pass-throughto enable seamless 3rd party control integration.

Colour Space Conversion (CSC) Technology in HDBaseT™

Due to the data rate of HDBaseT™ technology being capped at 10.2Gbps, it is unable to pass the latest native 4K UHD resolutions of 4K 60Hz 4:4:4.

There is now a requirementto integrate video resolutions with data speeds up to 18Gbpsacross a multi-zone AV environment.

Blustream have implementedCSC (Colour Space Conversion) technology into our latest products to ensure 4K HDR signals can now be supported over the limited infrastructure of HDBaseT™.

Colour Space Conversion reduces the data rate of the HDMI signal by converting the colour space from 4:4:4 or 4:2:2 to a lower format.

Within Colour Space Conversion technology the native resolution and frame rate remain constant from end to end.

The only part of the signal that is converted during transmission is the colour.

Blustream CSC products do not support HDR10 or the dynamic variation of Dolby Vision due to the way these specific variations of dynamic HDR (dHDR) are encoded.

These codecs transmit repeated metadata packets throughout the transmission of anymedia making it impossible at this stage to convert in the same way using CSC technology.
