Overview
The KanexPro WP-EXTHDTC50 is a 2×1 HDMI and USB-C HDBaseT wall plate extender kit for conference rooms, classrooms, and presentation spaces that need clean 4K/60Hz signal routing without local power at the source. The single-gang Decora-style wall plate transmitter accepts HDMI 2.0b or USB-C sources — including Apple MacBooks, Windows laptops, and mobile devices — and transmits over a single CAT5e/6 cable to the included receiver. Supports 4K@24 up to 50 meters and 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 up to 35 meters.
Built for integrators who need a reliable, cost-effective BYOD connection point, the WP-EXTHDTC50 includes POC so the wall plate transmitter requires no local AC power — the receiver handles power delivery over the CAT cable. An IR input on the receiver extends display control back to the source location. Auto-switching prioritizes HDMI when both inputs are active; manual source selection is available via front-panel button. Includes interchangeable white and black faceplates. 3-year KanexPro warranty.

What is included in the WP-EXTHDTC50 package?
The kit ships with one 18Gbps CAT 50M USB-C/HDMI wall plate transmitter, one 50M extender receiver, one 12V/1A power supply with international plugs, and a user manual.
Why choose the WP-EXTHDTC50 for a classroom or conference room?
It puts a single wall plate at the podium or table that accepts either a USB-C MacBook or an HDMI laptop, extends 4K/60Hz signal over standard CAT5e/6 cabling, and removes the need for a local outlet at the wall plate since the transmitter is powered by POC from the receiver.
How does the WP-EXTHDTC50 reduce cabling cost during installation?
Both HDMI and USB-C sources share a single CAT5e/6 run to the display, and POC powers the transmitter from the receiver, so integrators avoid pulling separate video cables and a dedicated power circuit to the wall plate.
What wall opening does the transmitter fit and what faceplate options are available?
The transmitter is housed in a US one-gang enclosure for Decora-style wall plate openings and is available with interchangeable white and black faceplates.
Which unit takes local AC power, the transmitter or the receiver?
The receiver connects to the included DC 12V/1A power supply. The wall plate transmitter has no AC connection; it is powered remotely from the receiver via POC over the CAT5e/6 cable.
What are the dimensions and weight of the transmitter and receiver?
The TX wall plate measures 1.31 x 2.59 x 2.70 in (33.3 x 65.7 x 68.7mm) and weighs 0.43 lbs (195g). The receiver measures 3.46 x 2.40 x 0.71 in (88 x 61 x 18mm) and weighs 0.34 lbs (155g). The faceplate measures 2.75 x 0.12 x 4.50 in (69.9 x 3 x 114.3mm).
How does source switching work between HDMI and USB-C?
Press the SOURCE button on the transmitter to toggle between HDMI and USB-C inputs. In automatic mode the unit prioritizes HDMI when both inputs are active.
Signal drops after switching between HDMI and USB-C. What causes this?
This is typically an EDID mismatch or handshake failure. Reconnect the CAT cable at both ends and power cycle the source device.
What makes the WP-EXTHDTC50 suitable for BYOD environments?
Auto-switching between HDMI and USB-C inputs plus a USB-C charging port on the transmitter let presenters connect with whichever cable they have without manual reconfiguration.
What is the video bandwidth of the HDMI and USB-C inputs?
The HDMI input supports 18Gbps bandwidth (HDMI 2.0b, HDCP 2.2) and the USB-C input carries DisplayPort 1.2a at up to 5.4Gbps.
