Description
Download Manual The UH18-R is an HDBaseT HDMI receiver designed to extend UHD video and peripheral signals over a single CAT5e/6 cable. It accepts HDMI input from the sender and delivers 4K@60 video along with USB2.0, bi-directional IR and RS-232 control. The receiver supports HDCP 2.2 and HDR10 to preserve content protection and high dynamic range imaging.
The receiver offers audio extraction on both analog and SPDIF outputs and supports LPCM 7.1, DTS-HD and Dolby-HD. EDID management simplifies source and display interoperability while dual POC allows power to be supplied from either end. The UH18-R is fully compliant with HDBaseT 2.0 specifications for reliable long-distance transport of AV and control signals.
Performance highlights include 4K@60 extension up to 100 m and 1080p@60 operation up to 150 m over a single CAT5e/6 cable. HDMI 2.0 support ensures adequate bandwidth for 4K60 video streams, and HDCP 2.2 compliance maintains protected content playback. USB2.0 tunneling enables peripherals such as touch panels or USB cameras to operate across the link with minimal setup.
Connectivity is comprehensive with HDMI, USB2.0, analog audio, SPDIF, bi-directional IR and RS-232 pass-through. The unit integrates into common AV systems using standard CAT5e/6 cabling and is compatible with the UH18 sender unit as part of a two-piece extender solution. The receiver extracts audio locally while passing HDMI video to the display, enabling flexible installation scenarios.
Common applications include digital signage and corporate AV where 4K video and remote control are required, lecture halls that need USB device extension and control, and retail environments where audio extraction and protected content support are necessary. The UH18-R is suitable for both new deployments and retrofits that require single-cable runs between source and display. Its compact form factor is optimized for concealed mounting behind displays or in AV enclosures.
Installation is straightforward with plug and play operation and EDID management to ensure source/display compatibility. Dual POC reduces cabling by allowing power to be supplied from either sender or receiver, and the compact, low-profile housing simplifies placement in tight spaces. The UH18-R combines reliable HDBaseT transport with practical installation features for fast, repeatable deployments.
