Quality HDMI Extender Transmitter and Receiver Extends HDMI over a single RJ45 Cat6 ethernet cable using a Maxim & Silicon Image chipset solution, delivering reliable HDMI signal transmission up to 196 ft (60 meters). This overcomes the typical HDMI length limitation and can reduce longdistance installation costs. Note: Cat5e ethernet cable can only reach up to 165 ft (50 meters). For full distance performance, pure copper Cat6 or higher level ethernet cables are recommended. Key benefits and capabilities Longdistance HDMI without quality loss: The extender enables HDMI transmission over Cat6 to distant displays, simplifying wiring and reducing cable clutter in living rooms, offices, classrooms, and showrooms. Broad compatibility and reliable EDID handling: Supports HDCP, 3D, and 1080P, with EDID Management to improve compatibility with various TVs/monitors. To enable 3D, all units connected to the extender must support 3D. quality audio support: Supports DTSHD, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DolbyAC3, and DSD, ensuring immersive multichannel audio when paired with compatible sources and displays. Wide video format support: Compatible with multiple resolutions including 1080p@50/60Hz, 1080i@50/60Hz, 720p@50/60Hz, 576p@50Hz, 576i@50Hz, 480p@60Hz, and 480i@60Hz. What it includes and how it works Transmitter and Receiver units: Each unit is equipped with an HDMI port. The HDMI input on the Transmitter connects to HDMI sources; the HDMI output on the Receiver connects to HDMI displays. Between the TX and RX units, use a pure copper Cat6 (or higher) ethernet cable for performance. Simple setup: Connect source devices (Bluray players, game consoles, media players, PCs) to the Transmitter's HDMI input. Run a single Cat6 cable from Transmitter to Receiver, then connect the Receiver's HDMI output to the display. Use Cat6 or higher for the interconnect. Video, audio, and compatibility details HDCP and 3D support: Compatible with HDCP and 3D content. For 3D viewing, ensure all extender units in the chain support 3D. Audio formats: DTSHD, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DolbyAC3, DSD. Video input support: 1080p@50/60Hz, 1080i@50/60Hz, 720p@50/60Hz, 576p@50Hz, 576i@50Hz, 480p@60Hz, 480i@60Hz. Materials and build: Both Transmitter and Receiver provide HDMI connectivity for source and display devices, respectively, with the recommendation to use pure copper Cat6 or higher between TX and RX for performance. Use scenarios Home theater setup: place a Bluray player or media PC in a back room and extend the HDMI signal to a projector or large TV in the living area up to 60 meters away, with a clean, singlecable installation. Office conference rooms: connect a presentation laptop and AV player to a distant projector or display across the room or through a ceiling path, avoiding long HDMI cables. Retail or classroom digital displays: run definition video from a media player to a wallmounted display or digital signage across a corridor or large classroom, maintaining audio compatibility and video quality. Specification highlights Transmission distance: up to 196 ft (60 meters) over a single RJ45 Cat6 ethernet cable (Cat5e limited to 165 ft/50 meters). Video resolutions: supports 1080p@50/60Hz, 1080i@50/60Hz, 720p@50/60Hz, 576p/50Hz, 576i/50Hz, 480p/60Hz, 480i/60Hz. Audio formats: DTSHD, Dolby TrueHD, DTS, DolbyAC3, DSD. HDCP, 3D, EDID management: provides compatibility enhancements with various displays, with 3D requiring all units to support 3D. Setup notes Ensure you use pure copper Cat6 or higher Ethernet cables between Transmitter and Receiver for performance. If using Cat5e, expect a reduced maximum distance (up to 165 ft/50 meters) and potentially lower stability. This product offers a straightforward, reliable solution for extending HDMI over long distances with strong support for modern audio and video formats, while maintaining compatibility with diverse display devices.
