News / 10.04.25
PureLink is proud to announce the launch of the PT-HDBT-1020CPD-TX, an advanced HDBaseT 3.0 USB-C Video and Data Transmitter with Power Delivery - the latest addition to its renowned 1020 product family. Designed to meet the evolving needs of professional AV and IT environments, this new transmitter delivers a comprehensive solution for high-resolution video distribution, seamless data connectivity, and smart power management - all in a compact and rugged chassis built for long-term reliability.
Whether it’s deployed in a corporate meeting space, higher education facility, government installation, or any mission-critical AV application, the PT-HDBT-1020CPD-TX combines versatility and performance to redefine what’s possible in professional signal transmission.
Next-Level Video Performance: 4K at 60Hz with Full 4:4:4 Colour
At the core of the PT-HDBT-1020CPD-TX is its ability to support 18Gbps bandwidth, making it capable of transmitting ultra-high-definition 4K 60Hz video with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling. This level of clarity ensures that every detail is preserved, from intricate design visuals in creative agencies to fine text and graphics in financial institutions. With HDCP 2.2 compliance, the unit also supports secure transmission of protected content, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of modern media sources and displays.
Extended Distance with HDBaseT 3.0: Transmission Up to 100 Meters
Built on the cutting-edge HDBaseT 3.0 platform, the PT-HDBT-1020CPD-TX enables stable signal distribution up to 100 meters (328 feet) over a single Cat cable. Users can achieve a full 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 quality up to 80 meters, or extend slightly further with 4:2:0 subsampling. This long-distance capability makes the unit ideal for installations that span large conference rooms, lecture halls, retail spaces, or control centres, where signal integrity and reliability are paramount.
Comprehensive USB Support: USB-C and USB-A Integration
One of the standout features of the transmitter is its robust USB support. A USB-C UFP port serves as the primary input, capable of handling both video and USB 2.0/1.1 data streams from connected host devices such as laptops, tablets, or PCs. For added flexibility, the device includes a USB-A 480Mbps port on the user side, ideal for connecting common peripherals like keyboards, mice, flash drives, or webcams.
This dual-port USB design bridges the gap between content sources and end-user devices, streamlining the user experience in collaborative or interactive environments.
Power Where You Need It: 100W USB-C Power Delivery
The PT-HDBT-1020CPD-TX also supports Power Delivery (PD) via a dedicated injection port, delivering up to 100 watts of power to the connected user-side USB-C device. This eliminates the need for a separate power supply for laptops or other high-draw devices, simplifying system design and cutting down on cable clutter. Whether powering a presenter’s laptop during a live demo or charging a USB-C tablet in a classroom setting, this feature provides the flexibility and convenience that modern AV applications demand.
Bi-Directional PoC for Simplified Installations
The device also includes 28-48V Bi-Directional Power over Cable (PoC) functionality. This allows the transmitter or the receiving device to supply power across the HDBaseT link, reducing the required power sources and simplifying cable management. Especially in ceiling-mounted or hard-to-reach installations, bi-directional PoC offers a cleaner and more efficient setup without sacrificing functionality.
Engineered for Reliability: Professional Grade-Housing and Mounting Options
The PT-HDBT-1020CPD-TX is enclosed in a durable metal housing that protects internal components from environmental factors and mechanical stress. It’s built for real-world deployment, with mounting hardware included for secure installation in racks, under desks, behind displays, or within wall boxes. This robust construction ensures the unit performs consistently in high-traffic, high-demand environments - making it a dependable choice for integrators and system designers alike.
Seamless Integration Across Applications
From corporate boardrooms and university lecture halls to digital signage networks and secure government operations, the PT-HDBT-1020CPD-TX is designed for flexibility. Its combination of high-quality video, data transport, and power delivery makes it a true all-in-one solution that integrates smoothly into new builds or retrofits. With support for multiple USB configurations, long-distance HDBaseT connectivity, and advanced power management, it’s ready for whatever the future of AV demands.
