HDanywhere has announced a new four-zone Multiroom Pack offering HD sound and vision, including 3D, around the home.

HDanywhere Multiroom Pack

The system uses pairs of Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable and offers full local control of the sending device from each of its four zones.

The system is based around a Multiroom Hub, which converts an incoming HDMI signal for transmission over an Ethernet cable. A pair of cables then run to each zone and both HD audio and video are transmitted without any compression.

The connecting cables are linked to a passive Display Receiver unit which then converts the signal back to HDMI. An infrared ‘magic eye’ can be connected to give remote control of the sending device from each room.

The system will support 720p, 1080i and 1080p 24/50/60 resolutions, has Sky 33 and Blu-ray 3D support, and is fully compliant with HDCP and HDMI 1.4 video features. Both the 1 x 4 HDTV Multiroom Hub and Display Receivers have integrated mounting brackets for discreet installation.

The system is distributed in the UK by HD Cable Ltd and costs £499.
