Hubbell AV - Connectivity Over UTP

Not too long ago we took a look at Hubbell's new AV 110 Everywhere solution, a flexible approach to installing AV systems over UTP cables for extended range and usability. By extending HDMI signals over UTP, installers are able to reduce installation times while end-users have crisp 1080p high definition video quality.

Reduced installation times come from the simplicity of the AV 110 punchdown tool, but also from the ability to use category 5e, 6 or 6A+ UTP cables. Being able to cut a length of cable to size for AV installations as opposed to using expensive AV flying leads or other specialty HDMI cables that have been the norm for so long in AV is a huge advantage. Hubbell has taken a big step towards accomadating data and network convergence over IP with their AV 110 Everywhere solution set.

There is a huge variety among the different audio-visual devices one might find in a project installation, but some of the more common applications include: projectors, smartboards, HDTV's, flatscreens, monitors, consoles, and laptop/computer connectivity, among many more.
