The URA-SKU is a Video and Audio over UTP (Cat5/5e/6) receiver. The URA-SKU can receive Video and Audio from compatible UVA transmitters (such as Models UVA-4, UVA-WP) up to 1,000 feet away. The URA-SKU supports resolutions up to 1920 x 1200 at 60Hz. The URA-SKU can fully compensate for both high-frequency signal attenuation and color skew in long UTP cables. Includes universal power supply. Made in the USA.

Important note about use with YPbPr signal

Using the standard URA-SKU with Component Video can produce excessive brightness and contrast. Therefore, this unit is not recommended for use with Component Video (YPbPr). Component Video signal is not as sensitive to twisted-pair skew since the Y signal has all of edge and brightness information. For distances upto 500 ft, a standard lower cost URA can be used with excellent results.

If you would like to have skew compensation for your YPbPr signal, please order the model URA-SKU-CP. The cost is the same and the unit is identical in every way except it is optimized for Component Video signal levels.
