1.0 General
Thank you for purchasing the Hall Research HR-733 fiber-optic video
Extender. The HR733 is a 3 input multi-format HD video extender with
bi-directional RS-232 extension and control.
The device can select among 2 HDMI (or DVI) inputs and 1 VGA (or
YPbPr) input and extend the selected source as an uncompressed digital
signal over a single multi-mode fiber to a remote receiver. The device
supports embedded audio on the HDMI inputs, and provides separate R/L
analog or SPDIF (TOSLINK) digital audio inputs for the VGA input.
The HR-733 can also extend a bi-directional data channel (CEC, or RS-
232 Serial) over a single multi-mode (OM2 or OM3) fiber optic cable
spanning distances of up to 1000m (3280ft).
The compact remote unit provides an HDMI output (with embedded
audio) for simple AV connectivity to any display.
The RS-232 port can be used as an extension, or at the same time it can be
used to control the Sender (e.g. to select inputs). A user-friendly front
panel with high-contrast alphanumeric LCD enables the user to easily set
up and control the system.
Advanced features include: automatic scaling of the analog video input to
match the native resolution of the remote display, diagnostic messages on
the front panel LCD (e.g. RS-232 strings sent or received), audio delay of
the analog input to correct lip-sync, support for CEC data channel of
HDMI (choice of RS-232 or CEC extension), and 3D deep-color HDMI
1.4 support (without ARC or Ethernet extension).
The Sender unit is designed as a ½ wide 1RU with threaded holes so that
two can be mounted side by side on a tray (Model RMS-1U-1A), or a
single unit can be rack mounted using supplied brackets (pair of F10375).
