The Theatrixx Technologies HDMI to HDBaseT Reversible Module (XVVRM-HDMI2HDBT) is a professional HDBaseT 1.0 transmitter module engineered exclusively for the Theatrixx XVVRF8 8-Bay Reversible Rackmount Frame. This module accepts an HDMI 1.4 input via a locking Type A connector and encodes the signal for transmission over standard CAT6a cabling, outputting HDBaseT 1.0 via a shielded Neutrik EtherCON RJ45 connector. The HDBaseT standard delivers uncompressed, latency-free video with HDCP 1.4 compliance, supporting 4K30 signals over distances up to 100 meters (328 feet), making this module ideal for conference rooms, broadcast studios, live event production, and permanent AV installations requiring reliable long-distance signal extension. A dedicated 1 Gbps Ethernet port on Neutrik EtherCON provides 100 Mbps pass-through connectivity over the HDBaseT link, enabling networked device control, projector management, or LAN extension without additional cabling.

Designed for demanding rental, touring, and mission-critical environments, the module features a fully enclosed, self-contained chassis with no exposed PCBs, protecting sensitive electronics against electrostatic discharge, dust ingress, physical impact, and general wear. The reversible architecture allows technicians to insert the module in either direction within the 3RU XVVRF8 frame, positioning the locking HDMI input, EtherCON port, and HDBaseT output at the front or rear of the rack to accommodate facility cabling layouts. All power is delivered via gold-plated redundant spring pins with magnetic retention, eliminating messy internal power cabling and external power bricks while ensuring the module remains securely powered and seated even during transportation or vibration-heavy operation. The module draws 20W of 12 V DC power directly from the XVVRF8 frame's dual redundant power supplies, with hot-swappable backup ensuring uninterrupted operation during power supply failure. Theatrixx Technologies designs and assembles these modules in Canada, prioritizing rugged construction and signal integrity for professional AV applications.
