HDMI™ is the global standard for connecting HD devices. Bridging the gap between CE and PC products, it’s the all digital, high-bandwidth solution that makes older audio-visual standards obsolete. HDMI™ delivers high-definition content at the very highest levels of performance. With a data rate of up to 10.2Gbps and a maximum bandwidth of 340MHz, HDMI™ is ready to support advanced display technologies such as higher screen resolutions up to 1440p and beyond. Faster refresh rates up to 120Hz means smoother motion on an HDTV display. Increasing the number of colors from millions to billions, Deep Color™ creates smoother gradients and eliminates “banding” in the picture, while XVYCC color space expands the selection of available colors by 80% and provides color that better matches the true capabilities of the human eye. If that is not enough, HDMI™ also supports new lossless high bit rate Digital Audio formats such as Dolby® True-HD and DTS-HD Master Audio® while enabling accurate and automatic lip synchronization.

Tributaries® HDMI™ Extenders
For short runs, most high quality High Speed HDMI™ cables will handle a 1080p/120Hz signal without loss of data. However, as an HDMI™ cable’s length surpasses 6 meters, the integrity of the data flow can become an issue, especially if an electronic extender is not used. Tributaries offers 3 different solutions for the professional installer to ensure perfect HDMI™ High Speed HD signal transmission every time.
● HX101
Extends an HDMI™ 1080p signal up to 40 meters (131 feet) over HDMI cable. The 2008 Electronic House "Product of the Year Award" Winner, Tributaries® HX101 is the most advanced solution for extending High Speed HDMI™ cable runs up to 40 meters. The HX101 corrects digital errors and automatically provides equalization to compensate for cable transmission loss. It eliminates digital noise (sparkles) to ensure you receive the perfect HDTV picture. The HX101 supports HDMI™ v1.3 features such as: resolutions up to 1440p, refresh rates up to 120Hz, WQXGA resolutions of 2560 x 1600, Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) 10, 12, 16 bit color depth, X.V. Color Space, Dolby® TrueHD, DTS - HD Master Audio. It is also fully HDCP compliant.
● HXC5
Extends an HDMI™ 1080p signal up to 50 meters (154 feet) over 2 CAT5E cables. In many home theater installations, the HDMI™ cable will need to be run through conduit into walls, attics, basements, etc. The requirement of a UL® approved cable becomes an issue as does the ability to maintain its electronic specifications after being pulled and bent during installation. For long HDMI™ cable runs, the cost of the cable, conduit, extender and the labor can easily increase the cost of the installation to well over $1000. Another simpler solution is the installation of the Tributaries HXC5. Since most installers now wire homes with multiple runs of inexpensive and easy to install CAT5E, the HXC5 becomes a “no-brainer” solution. The system consists of 2 powered units, a transmitter and a receiver. Simply place the transmitter next to the source such as a DVD player and then place the receiver next to the display. Complete the installation using Tributaries High Speed HDMI™ cables and 2 runs of CAT5E or CAT6. The HXC5 is fully HDCP compliant and supports High Speed HDMI™ inputs up to 1080p with refresh rates up to 50/60Hz, output follows input.

● HXMINI5
Extends an HDMI™ 1080p signal, and beyond, up to 100 meters (328 feet) over 5 coax cables. Tributaries HXMINI5 is the most advanced solution for extending HDMI™. It easily extends an HDMI™ v1.3 1080p signal through 5 - 75 ohm coax cables for a distance up to 100 meters. Tributaries HXMINI5 offers the benefits of going long distances, along with the ability to support the latest HD features such as higher resolutions, refresh rates and greater color depths of HDMI™ 1.3. The installation of Tributaries HXMINI5 is quick and easy. Simply place the transmitter next to your HDTV source, and the receiver close to your display. Complete the installation using Tributaries HDMI™ cables with one run of Tributaries TRIBMINI5 cable. The HXMINI5 automatically adapts to the cable length and signal rate, providing a true install and forget solution. This solution is also ideal for a retrofit/digital upgrade where analog RGBHV cabling has already been installed.

Tributaries® HDMI™ Switchers ● HX410 & HX410A
HDMI™ 4-in 1-out Switchers The HX410 boasts the latest high speed HDMI™ 1.3 standard and incorporates both wireless IR and RS232 serial control for excellent value and superb performance, separating them from the many “me too” HDMI™ accessories available. Both models can select from up to four sources and include active signal enhancement that engages equalization to maintain full-integrity HDMI™ transmissions even over longer cable-runs. In fact, the units’ built in “booster” enables the unit to be mounted along with the other equipment and still run 30 meters of 1080p/60Hz signal after the unit, which is a hard to find feature in this crowded product category.
The Electronic House “Product of the Year Award” Winner, the Tributaries HX410A goes even further: identical to the HX410 in every other regard, it includes both Toslink Optical and coaxial S/PDIF digital audio ports for each input and its signal output, providing a path for the audio signals to be routed independently from the video. This unique problem solver is the missing link between newer HDMI™ displays and older audio systems.

● HM420
HDMI™ 4-in 2-out Matrix Switcher Designed as a high performance matrix switcher, the Tributaries HM420 accepts up to 4 HDMI™ inputs, any one of which can be directed to either, or both, HDMI™ outputs. This enables the viewing of two different sources at the same time. As the HDMI™ signals pass through the HM420, they are re-timed, level compensated, corrected for phase errors and jitter is eliminated. The resulting output ensures a fully coherent 1080p HDMI™ signal capable of running 20 meters (65 feet). The HM420 incorporates both RS232 serial control and wireless IR. The rear panel also provides a receptacle for a remote IR receiver.

Tributaries® HDMI™ Splitter
● HDA140
1-in 4-out HDMI™ Splitter The Tributaries HDA140 HDMI™ Distribution Amplifier is the most advanced solution for HDMI™ signal distribution. Designed with signal amplification and equalization, the HDA140 will provide high performance audio & video transmission with no signal loss. For long cable runs, each buffered output can ensure 1080p performance with up to 30 meters of quality HDMI™ cable. To accommodate more than 4 displays, the HDA140 can be cascaded with a 2nd unit to provide signal to a total of 7 displays. HDCP is supported ensuring each output operates independently.
