Introduction of HDMI over CATx transmitter/receiver kits provides end-to-end solution to integrators.
Shatin, Hong Kong S.A.R., September 13, 2012 --(PR.com)-- SAPPHIRE Technology Ltd., a leading manufacturer and global supplier of innovative IT products, today introduced the PowerScale™ series of audio/video extenders: the SAPPHIRE PowerScale EX100 and SAPPHIRE PowerScale EX40. These HDMI over CATx transmitter/receiver kits ensure first-rate distribution of uncompressed audio/video signals at optimal distances.
“Our objective is to remain attentive to our integrator base,” says Adrian Thompson, VP of Marketing, SAPPHIRE Technology Ltd. “Complications can all too easily arise when disparate technologies are combined in an attempt to deliver a complete solution. In a continued effort to simplify the process of selecting and integrating digital signage components, SAPPHIRE has introduced the PowerScale family of extenders. We may now ensure compatibility among our growing range of products—even when displays are installed at a considerable distance from the player.”
