Tripp Lite B160-101-DPHDSI

Overview

The Tripp Lite B160-101-DPHDSI is a DisplayPort to DVI/HDMI extender kit designed to transmit high-definition video and audio signals over distances up to 328 feet (100 meters) using standard Cat5e or Cat6 cables. It supports full 1080p resolution at 60 Hz, ensuring sharp and smooth video quality even when the source device and display are far apart. This makes it an excellent choice for digital signage, classrooms, conference rooms, and trade show environments where long-distance signal extension is required.

A local HDMI output on the transmitter allows you to monitor content directly at the source, while RS-232 serial and infrared remote control support provide flexible device management from the display location. Its compliance with the Trade Agreements Act also makes it suitable for government and institutional use.

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.
