Atlona: 4K/UHD HDMI Over HDBaseT TX/RX Kit
We've got several of these in our inventory and they work great! My only complaint with them is the the power connection uses a connector with set screws so they are best for permanent installations but as long as you check them regularly it's no issues. And because it's certified HDBaseT, they work with all other HDBaseT equipment.

As a note, Atlona makes great gear and is one of the only companies I know that makes an HDBaseT switcher that's affordable ($2.5K).
In the future in case I need a longer length can I hook them one to the other?
Just make sure you get Cat6a barrels.

Thank you. I will follow your advice on the Atlona. I will buy three of them and 3 cat6a barrel of 100/160/220 feet.
Plus I found this: https://www.iogear.com/product/GCE500U/ which I think has a reasonable price and fits my needs.
Now I'm still looking for a Panasonic Pt-DZ570U but is discontinued and I'm not sure what to do. The problem is that I've sold to the client 2 projectors setup on top of the statue and they are expecting two. I'm debated in renting one in Düsseldorf or buying another Hitachi CP-WU5500 (the 5505 have HDbaseT). I love how versatile they are. The only downside is that they are LCD. But most of my jobs are black and white because I just love them. Sorry for the off topic.

Best,

Jo.

Hi Oaktown,

I was wondering is there any app or website that can help me to create a drawing with projectors positioning, and if there is one that can help me to calculate di distance between the projectors (4 x1), not throw calculator.

Thank you for now.

Best,

Jo.

Are you trying to figure out the size of your blend areas in pixels as well as the positioning of your projectors in relationship to your screen based on the blend areas?

I did the length of the wall divided by the pixels length. Results x 1920= one screen. Then results x 1920-25%=starting position of 1st edge blending.... Moving on.

Can I send you a photo of my hand drawing. I cannot share them at this stage of the pre production.
