Overview
Deliver reliable, scalable AV distribution for pro AV, security and surveillance environments with the Blustream PLA88CS Platinum 8x8 HDBaseT CSC AV Matrix. Built to simplify multiroom and monitoring deployments, this 8x8 HDMI 2.0 matrix sends HDMI, ARC, LAN, bi‑directional IR/RS‑232 and PoC over a single CAT cable—extending 1080p up to 150m and 4K UHD up to 100m. Advanced Colour Space Conversion (CSC) preserves HDR and 4K60Hz 4:4:4 fidelity, while independent down‑scaling ensures lower‑capability displays still receive compatible signals without compromising UHD screens. Integrated Dolby and DTS audio downmixing makes it easy to connect recording, monitoring or paging systems without additional processors. Installers benefit from dual HDBaseT/HDMI outputs per zone, two remote HDBaseT CSC inputs, and a built‑in 100Mbps Ethernet serving option when paired with Blustream RX150CS receivers. Designed for control rooms, retail digital signage, and security monitoring suites, the PLA88CS minimizes cable runs, centralizes control, and preserves image and audio integrity across complex installations.
