Blustream PRO48HBT70CS Custom Pro 4x8 HDBaseT™ CSC Matrix

The Blustream PRO48HBT70CS is a 4x8 HDBaseT™ CSC matrix designed for professional AV installations. It allows four HDMI sources to be independently routed to eight HDBaseT™ outputs over a single CAT cable per output. It delivers HDMI, Bi-directional IR, PoC up to lengths of 70m over a single CAT cable (4K with HDR up to 40m), with independent down-scaling of 4K video inputs on the CSC HDBaseT™ outputs to allow displays only capable of supporting lower video resolutions to receive 4K video while still showing maximum original 4K UHD resolution on the higher-definition displays. The Matrix also provides advanced features including audio breakout and a web browser interface module for control and configuration of the matrix.

Flexible Video Distribution

This matrix provides independent routing of multiple HDMI sources to multiple HDBaseT™ outputs. Down-scaling and Colour Space Conversion allow displays with lower resolution capabilities to receive compatible signals without losing maximum video quality on other outputs.

Audio and Control

Supports embedded analogue audio, bitstream passthrough for multichannel formats, and offers control via front panel, IR, RS-232, TCP/IP, or web interface. Supplied IR receivers and emitters and third-party driver support ensure integration into diverse AV control systems.
