Product Information
Full details
The Datavideo HBT-30 is a professional-grade 3-channel HDBaseT receiver designed for production crews and studio engineers who need to streamline 4K video workflows. It provides a robust solution for power, Ultra HD video transmission, and camera control over distances up to 100 metres using a single Cat6a cable per camera. While it drastically reduces cable clutter and simplifies setups by eliminating the need for individual receiver boxes, users should ensure they are using high-quality Cat6a cabling to maintain the 18 Gbit/s bandwidth required for 4K performance.

FAQs
Can I use the HBT-30 with non-Datavideo cameras?
The HBT-30 is designed for HDBaseT compatibility, but ensure your camera supports the specific HDBaseT protocols for power and control.
What is the maximum cable length I can use?
The maximum recommended distance for transmission is 100 metres using high-quality Cat6a cabling.
Does this receiver support 7.1 audio?
Yes, the unit supports 7.1 audio output channels via HDMI.
Does the unit require a specific power source?
Yes, it requires a 56V DC power input to support the PoE functionality for the cameras.
Can I control camera iris through this device?
Yes, the HBT-30 transmits RS-422 and IP control signals, allowing for remote iris and preset adjustments.
Troubleshooting
No video signal appearing on switcher
Verify that the Cat6a cable is securely connected and that you are not exceeding the 100-metre maximum length.
Camera not powering on
Check that the HBT-30 is receiving power and that the camera is fully compatible with the PoE standard provided by the receiver.
Intermittent video dropouts
Ensure the cable category is Cat6a; lower-grade cables often fail to handle the high bandwidth of 4K 60fps signals.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To set up the HBT-30, ensure your cameras are HDBaseT compatible and connected via high-quality Cat6a cables. Connect the HDMI outputs from the HBT-30 to your video switcher or monitor. For control, connect your controller to the RS-422 or IP interface on the receiver.
Care instructions include keeping the unit in a well-ventilated area within the 0-40 °C temperature range. Ensure the 56V DC power supply is stable. Periodically inspect your ethernet connections for physical damage or oxidation, as the high-speed data transmission required for 4K video is sensitive to poor contact or cable kinks.
