HDBaseT is a connectivity standard, promoted by the HDBaseT Alliance, for transmitting uncompressed high-definition video, audio, Ethernet, control signals and power over a single category cable across longer distances than HDMI supports.
The HDBaseT Alliance specifies signal extension of up to 100 m (328 ft) over standard category cable. HDBaseT extenders are common for connecting table inputs to displays or to a rack; for building-wide distribution, AV-over-IP is often used instead.
Where this matters: Commercial AV integration — see how AV Company New York applies this in real New York projects.
