Introduction
Introduction
The EX-G006 HDMI 1.3 over CAT5 Extender boosts up your video/audio transmission distance
up to 60m (200ft) in HDTV 1080i format. With two low cost CAT-5/5e LAN cables, users can readily
extend HDTV sources from DVD players, Blu-ray Disc player, PS3, PC, and any other kinds of sources
compliant with TMDS to distant display monitors including HDMI/DVI enabled TV sets or LCD PC
monitors. This cost effective flexibility makes HDCP compliant DVD players or PS3 transmit high
quality video and audio with a greater distance at the minimal cost, when integrating several
components apart.
The EX-G006 includes two units: transmitting (EX-G006-TX) and receiving (EX-G006-RX) units.
The transmitting unit is used to transfer the HDMI/DVI signals input and carry the signals through two
RJ-45 connectors over two low cost CAT-5/5e/6 LAN cables. The receiving unit is responsible for
equalizing transferred TMDS multimedia data. The transmission distance between the sending and
receiving units can be up to 60m (200ft) under HD (720p/1080i) or 40m (130ft) under Full HD (1080p).
With an 8-level equalization control knob on the receiving unit, users can adjust the equalization
strength to the received TMDS signals accordingly, and therefore optimize the transmission distance
between source and destination.
Features
zHDMI 1.3c compliant
zExtends the transmission distance up to 60m (200ft) from the sources under 1080i or 720p
zExtends the transmission distance up to 40m (130ft) from the sources under 1080p
zProvides independent DDC channel, fully HDCP compliant
zMinimizes the cable skew by adjustable 8-level equalization control
zPure unaltered uncompressed 7.1ch digital HDMI over LAN cable transmission
zAllows cascading
zPerfectly integrated with other HDMI over CAT5 series products
The length depends on the characteristics and quality of the cables. Higher resolutions and
longer transmission distances require low skew cables (<25ns/100m) for best performance.
Unshielded CAT6 with metal RJ-45 connectors is recommended.

Hardware Installation
1. Connect your HDMI/DVI source (such as a Blu-ray Disc player) to the transmitting unit
EX-G006-TX.
2. Connect your HDMI/DVI display (such as a LCD TV) to the receiving unit EX-G006-RX.
3. Connect your CAT-5/5e/6 cables between the transmitting and receiving units.
4. Make sure your CAT-5/5e/6 cables are tightly connected and not loose; and one is from TMDS to
TMDS and the other is from DDC to DDC.
5. Plug in 5V DC power cord to the power jack of the receiving unit EX-G006-RX.
6. If a flickering or a blinking image is seen, try to adjust the rotational switch to improve the
cable skew. 0 stands for the strongest EQ while 7 stands for the weakest. Try adjusting the
EQ from 7 to 0.

Notice
1. If the DVI or HDMI device requires the EDID information, please use EDID Reader/Writer to
retrieve and provide DVI/HDMI EDID information.
2. All HDMI over CAT5 transmission distances are measured using Belden 1583A CAT5e 125MHz
LAN cable and ASTRODESIGN Video Signal Generator VG-859C.
3. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of LAN cables, the type of HDMI sources,
and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid LAN cables (usually in bulk cable
300m or 1000ft form) can transmit a lot longer signals than stranded LAN cables (usually in patch
cord form). Shielded STP cables are better suit than unshielded UTP cables. A solid UTP CAT5e
cable shows longer transmission length than stranded STP CAT6 cable. For long extension users,
solid LAN cables are your only choice.
4. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for LAN cables is recommended for better performance.
5. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in LAN cable, you can use
shielded LAN cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long transmission.
6. Because the quality of the LAN cables has the major effects in how long transmission distance will
be made and how good is the received display, the actual transmission length is subject to your
LAN cables. For resolution greater than 1080i or 1280x1024, a CAT6 cable is recommended.
7. If your HDMI display has multiple HDMI inputs, it is found that the first HDMI input [HDMI input #1]
generally can produce better transmission performance among all HDMI inputs.
