Datavideo HBT-30 3 Channel HDBaseT Receiver

The Datavideo HBT‑30 is a high-performance 3-channel HDBaseT receiver designed to streamline multi-camera 4K production workflows by combining video, control and power transmission into a single, efficient infrastructure. Engineered for professional broadcast, AV installations and live environments, it enables a clean and scalable system architecture by drastically reducing the need for separate cabling and interfaces.

At the core of the HBT‑30 is advanced HDBaseT technology, allowing Ultra HD 4K video signals up to 50/60p to be transmitted over standard Cat6 cables across distances of up to 100 meters. This ensures consistent signal integrity and low-latency performance, even in large venues or complex production setups where remote camera placement is required.

The unit is capable of receiving and processing up to three independent HDBaseT channels simultaneously, making it an ideal solution for multi-camera configurations. By consolidating multiple camera feeds into a single receiver, it simplifies system design and minimizes hardware requirements while maintaining full operational flexibility.

In addition to video transmission, the HBT‑30 supports bidirectional communication for camera control, including interfaces such as RS‑422 and IP-based protocols. This enables operators to remotely manage camera parameters such as presets, iris and positioning directly from a centralized control point, ensuring precise and coordinated operation during live productions.

The HBT‑30 also delivers power to compatible PTZ cameras over the same network cable, eliminating the need for local power supplies at each camera location. This significantly improves installation efficiency and is especially valuable in environments where cabling access is limited or where clean, professional installations are required.

Video output is provided via HDMI, allowing direct integration with switchers, monitors and recording systems. Combined with its ability to transport control signals and power, the HBT‑30 acts as a central hub that unifies camera connectivity, control and signal routing within a single device.

With its robust design, long-distance transmission capabilities and integrated workflow functionality, the Datavideo HBT‑30 offers a powerful and efficient solution for simplifying modern 4K production systems, enabling reliable performance and streamlined operation in professional environments.
