About the Roland HDBaseT Transmitter (B-Stock/Factory Recertified)
This product is a factory recertified or B-stock Roland HDBaseT transmitter, a device designed to extend and distribute high-definition audio, video, control, and Ethernet signals over long distances using a single CAT5e/6/7 Ethernet cable. HDBaseT technology is a industry standard for transmitting uncompressed, ultra-high-definition video (up to 4K), multi-channel audio, Ethernet data, control signals (such as RS-232 and IR), and up to 100W of power (PoH) across a standard LAN cable, simplifying installation and reducing cable clutter in professional AV environments. This Roland transmitter is engineered to take inputs from source devices like media players, computers, or Blu-ray players via HDMI and output a consolidated signal suitable for transmission to a compatible HDBaseT receiver, which then outputs to a display, audio system, and other peripherals.
As a recertified unit, this transmitter has been returned to Roland, thoroughly inspected, tested, and restored to meet original factory performance specifications. It undergoes rigorous quality assurance processes to ensure full functionality and reliability, though it may show minor cosmetic signs of previous use. The device typically supports key HDBaseT features such as transmission distances up to 100 meters (328 feet) without signal degradation, support for HDCP content protection, and EDID management for proper handshake between source and display. It may also include features like signal equalization to maintain integrity over long cable runs and lip-sync correction for synchronized audio and video.
This transmitter is ideal for system integrators and installers building or upgrading conference rooms, classrooms, digital signage networks, or home theaters where cost-effective, reliable signal distribution is required. Using recertified professional gear from a reputable manufacturer like Roland offers significant value, providing near-new performance and warranty coverage at a reduced price point. By leveraging HDBaseT technology, this unit provides a future-proof, scalable solution for centralized AV systems, ensuring high-quality, stable transmission of multimedia content across commercial and residential installations.
