About HDBaseT 2.0 Extenders
VigilLink's HDBaseT 2.0 extender family delivers 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 HDMI 2.0 at 18Gbps and DisplayPort 1.2 at 21.6Gbps over a single Cat6 cable to 70 or 150 meters, with models adding KVM, USB 2.0, and ARC audio return for complete AV and control extension in a single cable run. Carrying IR and RS-232 control signals alongside video on the same Cat cable, these extenders eliminate separate control wiring in large venues, corporate campuses, and distributed display systems.
Five 100m models extend this further with 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 HDMI, DisplayPort 1.4a, and USB-C sources at up to 32.4Gbps, plus a dedicated 8K@60Hz HDMI 2.1 model at 48Gbps FRL with full VRR, ALLM, and low-latency gaming protocol support. These models add bi-directional PoC, advanced EDID management, and — on the HDMI and DisplayPort variants — bi-directional IR and RS-232 pass-through, though none include the KVM functionality found on the 150m HT2150K-TR.
The family also includes legacy HDBaseT 1.0 models for 4K@30Hz HDMI 1.4 at 70 meters (VLEX-HT2070-TR) and 1080p HDMI 1.3 at 150 meters (VLEX-HT2150A-TR), covering retrofit and budget installations where 4K@60Hz is not required. All models ship with a 6-year VigilLink warranty.
Choosing the Right HDBaseT 2.0 Extender
4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 — 150m, Video Only (VLEX-HT2150-TR): The baseline model for 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 HDMI 2.0 extension at the maximum 150-meter HDBaseT 2.0 distance over Cat6/6A, with IR and RS-232 included. Choose for large-venue displays, campus buildings, and any AV distribution where distance is the primary requirement.
4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 — 150m, With KVM (VLEX-HT2150K-TR): Adds full keyboard, video, and mouse extension to the HDMI 2.0 150-meter run, enabling remote workstation operation over the same Cat6 cable. Choose for secure operator terminals, clinical workstations, and any deployment where computing equipment must be physically separate from the user interface.
4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 — 150m, With USB (VLEX-HT2150U-TR): Extends USB 2.0 alongside HDMI 2.0 at 150 meters for peripheral connectivity — cameras, interactive whiteboards, USB-HID devices — without a KVM switch. Choose for education and presentation environments needing peripheral access at the display end.
DisplayPort 1.2 — 150m, With KVM (VLEX-HT2150DPK-TR): Extends DisplayPort 1.2 at 21.6Gbps with full KVM over HDBaseT at 150 meters — the only 150m model in this family for DP sources. Choose for workstations with DisplayPort output where HDMI adapters are undesirable, such as CAD, engineering, and medical imaging systems.
4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 — 70m, With ARC (VLEX-HT2070R-TR): Extends 4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 with ARC audio return at 70 meters over Cat6. Choose for conference rooms and presentation spaces where the display returns audio to an AV receiver or sound bar and the run distance is within 70 meters.
Compact USB — 35m (VLEX-CHT235-TR): A compact HDBaseT 2.0 model for 4K@60Hz 4:2:0 HDMI 2.0 with USB at 35 meters and 10.2Gbps. Suited to meeting rooms and classrooms where a short, cost-efficient HDMI+USB extension over Cat cable is needed.
4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 — 100m, With IR & RS-232 (VLEX-H20U2100): A higher-bandwidth 100m alternative to the 150m video-only model, adding bi-directional IR, RS-232, and CEC pass-through alongside USB 2.0 and bi-directional PoC. Choose for mid-distance runs needing full remote control extension without the KVM overhead.
4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 — 100m, USB Only (VLEX-H20U2100NIR): A streamlined variant of the VLEX-H20U2100 without dedicated IR or RS-232 ports, retaining CEC pass-through and USB 2.0 extension. Choose for installations where video and USB are the only requirements and a separate control system already manages the display.
8K@60Hz HDMI 2.1 — 100m, With IR & RS-232 (VLEX-H21U2100): The family's only 8K-capable model, extending HDMI 2.1 at up to 48Gbps FRL with full VRR, ALLM, QMS, QFT, and SBTM pass-through, plus bi-directional IR and RS-232. Choose for esports venues, broadcast monitoring, and next-generation 4K@144Hz or 8K installations where the 150m HDMI 2.0 models' 18Gbps ceiling is insufficient.
4K@60Hz DisplayPort 1.4a — 100m, With IR & RS-232 (VLEX-D14U2100): Extends DisplayPort at up to 32.4Gbps with bi-directional IR and RS-232, USB 2.0, and PoC. Choose for DisplayPort-equipped workstations, CAD/graphics PCs, and broadcast editing suites where the 150m VLEX-HT2150DPK-TR's DP 1.2/21.6Gbps ceiling or its KVM-only configuration don't fit.
4K@60Hz USB-C — 100m, With IR & RS-232 (VLEX-CD14U2100): Extends USB-C DisplayPort ALT Mode video at up to 32.4Gbps with bi-directional IR and RS-232, USB 2.0, and a dedicated charging pass-through port. Choose for BYOD conference rooms, classrooms, and single-cable USB-C laptop or docking installations.
Legacy HDBaseT 1.0 — 4K@30Hz HDMI 1.4, 70m (VLEX-HT2070-TR): Extends HDMI 1.4 at 4K@30Hz with IR and RS-232 over 70 meters. Choose for existing AV systems with HDMI 1.4 sources or displays where replacing the signal chain is not within scope.
Legacy HDBaseT 1.0 — 1080p HDMI 1.3, 150m (VLEX-HT2150A-TR): Extends 1080p HDMI 1.3 at 150 meters for legacy display systems. Choose for budget installs and retrofit projects where 1080p is the end specification and maximum distance is required.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is the maximum extension distance for HDBaseT 2.0 at 4K@60Hz?
HDBaseT 2.0 extenders support 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 HDMI 2.0 at 18Gbps to a maximum of 150 meters over Cat6/6A cable. This applies to the VLEX-HT2150-TR, VLEX-HT2150K-TR, VLEX-HT2150U-TR, and VLEX-HT2150DPK-TR. Models rated at 70 meters (VLEX-HT2070R-TR) operate at the same bandwidth with a shorter rated distance. A separate 100m family (VLEX-H20U2100, VLEX-H20U2100NIR, VLEX-H21U2100, VLEX-D14U2100, VLEX-CD14U2100) supports higher bandwidth up to 48Gbps at a shorter maximum distance.
What is the difference between the KVM and USB models in this family?
KVM models (VLEX-HT2150K-TR) extend full keyboard, video, and mouse for operating a remote workstation — equivalent to sitting at the computer. USB models (VLEX-HT2150U-TR) extend USB 2.0 for peripheral connectivity (cameras, whiteboards, USB-HID devices) without a full KVM switch configuration. KVM is appropriate for IT and secure workstation applications; USB for AV peripheral access.
Does the VLEX-HT2150DPK-TR require a DisplayPort source?
Yes. The VLEX-HT2150DPK-TR accepts a DisplayPort 1.2 source input and extends it over HDBaseT at 150 meters. It does not accept HDMI input directly — use an HDMI-to-DP adapter at the source if required. The remote receiver outputs HDMI to the display.
Do HDBaseT 2.0 extenders carry IR and RS-232 control signals?
Yes. All VLEX-HT2-series models carry IR (infrared) and RS-232 serial control signals over the same Cat6 cable as HDMI video, allowing remote display control, source switching, and system automation without a separate control cable run. The VLEX-H20U2100NIR is the one exception in the family, omitting dedicated IR/RS-232 ports in favor of CEC pass-through only.
What is ARC on the VLEX-HT2070R-TR and when is it needed?
ARC (Audio Return Channel) carries audio from the display back to an AV receiver or soundbar over the HDMI connection, avoiding a separate optical or analog audio cable. On the VLEX-HT2070R-TR, ARC is passed through the HDBaseT link from the remote display to the AV receiver at the source end — needed in rooms where the amplifier is at the head end and the display is at the far end of the Cat run.
What is the difference between the 150m KVM/USB models and the new 100m HDMI 2.1, DisplayPort, and USB-C models?
The 150m models (VLEX-HT2150K-TR, VLEX-HT2150U-TR, VLEX-HT2150DPK-TR) top out at 4K@60Hz HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2 at 18-21.6Gbps, with KVM or USB extension included. The newer 100m models (VLEX-H20U2100, VLEX-H20U2100NIR, VLEX-H21U2100, VLEX-D14U2100, VLEX-CD14U2100) support higher-bandwidth 4K HDMI, DisplayPort 1.4a, USB-C, and 8K HDMI 2.1 sources at up to 48Gbps, with USB 2.0 peripheral pass-through but no full KVM functionality. Choose the 150m family for maximum distance or KVM; choose the 100m family for higher bandwidth, 8K, or DisplayPort/USB-C source support.
Does this family include an 8K extender?
Yes. The VLEX-H21U2100 extends 8K@60Hz 4:2:0 12-bit HDMI 2.1 up to 100m over Cat5e/6, with 48Gbps FRL bandwidth and full VRR, ALLM, QMS, QFT, and SBTM pass-through for gaming and low-latency applications. It is the only 8K-capable model in the HDBaseT 2.0 extender family.
