We are doing a house that has a party barn and pool house. We need to get HDMI and Ethernet to these locations. The pool house is about a 400' run and the party barn is about 600'. There are conduits in place and I assume we will need to run fiber with a transmit and receive breakout box. We are Crestron dealers but their extenders are expensive. Does anyone have any suggestions that may be less expensive. I know you get what you pay for so I am not looking for cheap. The Crestron pair retails for $2200.

yup, fiber!

Just Add Power is a no brainer for this

Or stick with Crestron and get reliability. I know they're expensive but Crestron works. I've never had any issue's period with any Crestron HDMI solution.

I'm not familiar with Just Add Power. I have heard the name a lot but have never worked with the product. I looked on the website and did not see a fiber solution. Am I missing something. Crestron may be my best choice unless anyone else has a better idea.

Just about anyone's fiber
Converters for Ethernet are much cheaper. Shouldn't be any problems getting a Tx and add pair under $300.

They have a party barn and pool house. Think about how much of an affect the Crestron will have on their lives if you use that. It will be like a fly fart.

That is, if it's reliable. If it's not the best option, use the best. Going cheap and having problems will not make you look good.

Use fiber to get Ethernet out there then add the Just Add Power after it. It's a solid product.

+1 on Just Add Power.

If you need HDMI and Ethernet && Are a Crestron Dealer && this project is this large

Are you not using DM? If you are using DM use the Fiber output and pull ethernet from the Room box.

It sounds like you would need that equipment anyway so cost shouldn't be as bad

Use Fiber to connect the Ethernet Switches between the zones. Then attach the Just Add Power devices to the network switches. If you use the new Luxul Stack switches or the Cisco SG500X switches with 10GB fiber interconnects you can easily support 80 HDMI sources over the fiber backbone (sort of like the big name sports books in Las Vegas using our devices). Give us a call (888-390-1750) and we'll send you a full dealer demo kit including an Ethernet switch to test our Crestron driver to your satisfaction. Very reliable, great pricing.

Either they pay for crestron or you pay to roll a truck its your choice

Pull at least a 6 strand cable, then you have at least 3 duplex connections. If you do not have termination equipment, you can hire someone with the correct equipment. New termination methods are cheaper and easier, but the equipment is expensive. Or you can buy a pre-terminated cable - but that can be harder to pull. Ethernet and HDMI over fiber are good on both 62.5 (OM1) and 50 (OM2 & OM3) micron multimode , but 50 can handle higher bandwidth. Be aware of the pull tension limitations - especially if you aren't pulling armored cable. LC connectors are standard on most newer devices (SFP for networks, for example), but SC is also popular.

If you want it to work, Crestron DM fiber solution.

If your a Crestron dealer, that solution is the only no brainer here. Unless your looking for a "Science project " solution.

The Crestron extender is only 100Mbps (same with roombox outputs), so unless you're still putting in 10/100 switches, I question why you'd want to run fiber and then bottleneck the equipment at the far end of it.
