Tripp Lite B160-100-DPSI

Overview

The Tripp Lite B160-100-DPSI is a DisplayPort over IP extender receiver designed to deliver full HD 1080p video at 60 Hz along with clear audio to displays located far beyond the reach of standard cables. It works by transmitting signals over a single Cat5e or Cat6 cable up to 328 feet, making it ideal for environments like retail signage, classrooms, production studios, or any setup where source devices remain centralized in a control rack. This receiver integrates seamlessly with network infrastructure, allowing flexible configurations beyond simple point-to-point connections.

Connectivity and compatibility

This receiver integrates with existing network infrastructure, allowing it to fit into setups that use standard Ethernet switches and cables. It pairs exclusively with B160 series transmitters to form a flexible video distribution system. The RS-232 and IR pass-through features enable remote control of connected devices, which is especially useful in professional AV installations where equipment is housed in secure or inaccessible locations.

Installation and setup

Installation is straightforward thanks to the plug-and-play design that requires no additional drivers or software. Simply connect the receiver to the network and the display, then pair it with a compatible transmitter. The ability to use standard Cat5e or Cat6 cables reduces complexity and cost, while the remote control capabilities allow fine-tuning after installation without needing to physically access the unit.

Ideal uses and environments

This extender receiver is well suited for commercial and institutional environments such as retail stores, educational facilities, production studios, and control rooms. It supports setups where video sources must remain centralized but displays are spread across large areas. The scalable network design also makes it a strong choice for video walls, multi-room presentations, and real-time monitoring stations requiring reliable, high-quality video distribution.

We act solely as a reseller. Any product warranty is provided and administered by the manufacturer, not by our store. That means eligibility, coverage, and outcomes are determined by the manufacturer’s policy for each brand and model. Before purchasing, we recommend reviewing the warranty terms on the manufacturer’s website or in the product documentation to confirm what is covered and for how long.

If you need warranty service, please file the claim directly with the manufacturer. They may require proof of purchase, the product serial number, original packaging, photos, or basic troubleshooting. Some brands ask you to register the product or obtain a case number before shipping it for repair or replacement. We don’t submit or approve claims, but we can point you to the correct support links and contact details.

Keep your invoice and packaging in a safe place, and report any functional issues to the manufacturer as soon as they appear. If you’re unsure whether a problem is covered, the manufacturer’s support team can confirm next steps and timelines. While we cannot intervene in decisions or outcomes, we’re happy to provide purchase documentation or guidance so you can move through the warranty process smoothly.
