MOUNT VERNON, N.Y., May 20, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Key Digital®, the expert in audio and video technology and solutions, is proud to introduce FatCat Series™ model KD-CATHD500 HDMI balun kit, the newest digital video distribution solution. This HDMI balun kit is designed for commercial applications where long CAT6/STP cable runs are impeding digital video signal transmission. As leaders in digital and analog video technology, Key Digital® produces a variety of HDMI baluns to provide solutions to installers for commercial A/V systems.
The FatCat Series™ model KD-CATHD500 now offers runs of up to 400ft. on 1080p/60 using our FatCat Series™ model KD-CAT6STP1X CAT6STP cabling solution. The KD-CATHD500 is also equipped with Ethernet ports to pass streaming online media to displays, and the transmit ends of both models offer a built in HDMI pass through – the first of its kind. Key Digital's first ever HDBaseT balun kit also offers bi-directional and simultaneous control features, further proving the versatility of the FatCat Series™ family of HDMI baluns. The KD-CATHD500 are one of the first balun kits to have an EDID control built in, which ensures a proper handshake between HDMI devices every time.
Mike Tsinberg, President at Key Digital®, stated: "The KD-CATHD500 opens a new window of opportunity for Key Digital® as it is the first 10g BaseT balun kit with available IR and RS-232 (bi-directional and single direction)."
Today's installers need reliable, easy, and fast integration of video and audio in both residential and commercial applications. The KD-CATHD500 simplifies HDMI installations offering all video, audio and control capabilities needed for the most technical applications.
