1. Introduction
The HDMI 1.3 transmitter and receiver is the right way to send your HDMI signal
over long distances. Instead of using expensive HDMI cables, this device lets
you use your existing CAT 6 cables/sockets while also performing the same
functions like transferring Deep Color (12 bits/color) video and new lossless
compressed (Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master Audio) digital
audio, all with a bandwidth up to 225MHz. And if that weren’t enough, you
can use your existing remote to control your device from over 30/45 m away
through an IR blaster. If your looking for a way to extend an HDMI signal, then
the HDMI 1.3 Transmitter and Receiver is what you have been searching for.
