INTRODUCTION
The CV-715S HDMI over Single CAT5 Mini-Receiver provides the most ideal solution by which the
high definition video and high quality audio can be transmitted over a distance via a Cat-5/5e/6 cable. The
CV-715S can work with any transmitter or splitter in the HDMI over single CAT5 family products and allow
you to extend HDMI compliant displays almost anywhere.
FEATURES
Support HDMI Deep Color & 3D
HDCP compliant
Extends up to 25m of output Cat-5/5e/6 cable under HD (720p / 1080i)
Extends up to 15m of output Cat-5/5e/6 cable under Full HD (1080p)
Pure unaltered uncompressed 7.1ch digital HDMI over CAT5/6 cable transmission
Perfectly integrated with other HDMI over CAT5 series products
Direct plug for easy use
PACKAGE CONTENTS
●1x CV-715S
●1x User Manual
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.

NOTICE
1. All HDMI over CAT5 transmission distances are measured using Belden 1583A CAT5e
125MHz UTP cable andASTRODESIGN Video Signal Generator VG-859C.
2. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of Cat-5/5e/6 cables, the type of HDMI
sources, and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid UTP cables (usually in
the form of 300m bulk cables) can transmit a lot longer signals than stranded UTP cables
(usually in the form of fixed length patch cords). Shielded STP cables are better suited than
unshielded UTP cables. A solid UTP Cat-5e cable shows longer transmission range than
stranded STP Cat-6 cable. For long extension applications, solid UTP/STP cables are the
only viable choice.
3. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for category cables is recommended.
4. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in Cat-5/5e/6 cable,
one can use double shielded STP cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long
transmission.
5. Because the quality of the CAT5/6 cables has the major effect on how long the transmission
limit can achieve and how good is the received picture quality, the actual transmission range
is subject to one’s choice of Cat-5/5e/6 cables. For desired resolutions greater than 1080i or
1280x1024, a Cat-6 cable is recommended.
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.
