1.0 Introduction 

This manual covers UHBX-S and UHBX-R (together sold as UHBX) HDMI 

extenders manufactured by Hall Research. They extend uncompressed 

HDMI, bidirectional IR and full-duplex RS232 up to 150 meters (500 feet) 

using a single Cat6 cable. 
The extender supports all HDMI or single-link DVI video signals of virtually 

any resolution. PC resolutions are supported upto 1920x1200 and HDTV 

resolutions of UHD (4Kx2K) are supported. 
Two user selectable distance modes are available: “Standard” and “Long 

Reach”. These modes are explained further in section 4.4 of this manual. 
The extenders comply with HDBaseT™ specifications and are compatible 

with all other certified HDBaseT gear. For example, the UHBX-S transmitter 

can be plugged into any projector or display with compatible input such as 

Panasonic’s DIGITAL LINK, Epson’s PowerLite Pro series and others. 
Full-duplex RS-232 extension is provided that can operate at any baud rate to 

115,200 bps. The extender can also extend IR from one end to the other. IR 

Detector and IR Emitter cables are sold separately. The IR extension 

preserves the modulation (carrier) frequency and provides compatibility to 

all standards. It supports modulation range from 30 KHz to 60 KHz
