Where to Buy

Product Description

The VLEX-D14U2100 is a long-reach HDBaseT extender that carries DisplayPort, USB 2.0, IR, and RS-232 signals up to 100m/328ft over a single Cat5e/6 cable, converting the DP signal to standard HDBaseT for transmission and reconstructing it at the receiver. Video resolution reaches 4K@60Hz at full 4:4:4 chroma sampling, with VESA DisplayPort 1.4a ALT Mode and HDCP 2.3/2.2/1.x compliance across up to 32.4Gbps of video bandwidth (HBR3/HBR2/HBR/RBR).

Bi-directional IR and RS-232 pass-through let installers control the source or display from either end of the run without a separate control cable, while advanced EDID management (COPY TV/STD) and audio de-embedding at the receiver round out a compact, plug-and-play design. Bi-directional PoC simplifies power delivery for installations built around DisplayPort sources, such as workstations and graphics-intensive PCs, that need to reach displays beyond standard DP cable length.

Ideal Applications

Corporate Workstation & Engineering Environments
Extend a DisplayPort-equipped workstation or CAD/graphics PC to a display positioned beyond standard cable reach, keeping IR and RS-232 display control available from the source end.

Broadcast & Post-Production Editing Suites
Bridge grading or editing workstation DisplayPort output to reference monitors outside the edit bay, with RS-232 automation and IR pass-through preserving remote monitor control.

Command Centers & Operations Rooms
Run DisplayPort sources from a centralized rack to displays or video walls across a command center floor plan, using the 100m Cat5e/6 run in place of DisplayPort cable extenders and repeaters.

Higher Education STEM & Design Labs
Extend DisplayPort output from lab workstations to displays or projectors across a classroom or design studio, with IR pass-through supporting projector power and input control from the instructor station.

Financial Trading & Multi-Monitor Desks
Extend a trading workstation's DisplayPort output to displays mounted at distance in dealing rooms or NOC environments, where rack equipment is centralized away from the desk.

Healthcare & Clinical Imaging Workstations
Extend diagnostic workstation DisplayPort output to a review or consultation display outside the immediate workstation area, with RS-232 and IR pass-through preserving display control at the far end.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the maximum distance and resolution for the VLEX-D14U2100?
The VLEX-D14U2100 extends 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 DisplayPort up to 100m/328ft over a single Cat5e/6 cable, with up to 32.4Gbps of video bandwidth and HDCP 2.3/2.2/1.x compliance.

Which DisplayPort link rates does the VLEX-D14U2100 support?
The extender supports HBR3, HBR2, HBR, and RBR link rates (8.1, 5.4, 2.7, and 1.62Gbps respectively), covering the full VESA DisplayPort 1.4a ALT Mode bandwidth range.

Does this extender support control signals in addition to video?
Yes. The VLEX-D14U2100 passes bi-directional IR and RS-232 control signals over the same Cat cable as the DisplayPort video signal, so remote and serial automation continue to work across the full 100m run.

Can I power this extender from one end only?
Yes. The VLEX-D14U2100 supports bi-directional PoC (Power over Cable), so a single 24V/1A power supply at either the transmitter or receiver can power both units over the Cat cable.

Is the VLEX-D14U2100 compatible with HDMI sources or displays?
No. The VLEX-D14U2100 is a DisplayPort extender with DP-only transmitter and receiver connectors. For HDMI sources, use the VLEX-H20U2100 or VLEX-H21U2100; for USB-C DisplayPort ALT Mode sources, use the VLEX-CD14U2100.

What audio formats does the VLEX-D14U2100 pass through?
The extender passes LPCM, Dolby Digital/Plus/EX, Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Atmos, DTS, DTS-EX, DTS-96/24, DTS High Res, DTS-HD Master Audio, and DTS:X, with audio de-embedding available at the receiver via the 3.5mm analog output.
