Introduction
EX0101-HE1/HE2 is a HDMI extender while using CAT-5E/6 cable as
transmission media.
Benefits from using EX0101-HE1/ HE2:
1) The length of HDMI cable is fixed and unchangeable after it is produced.
Because the HDMI connector can only be soldered or terminated by
professional worker in factory, the users can not reduce or increase by
themselves. However CAT-5E/6E cables are available everywhere and be
processed easily by the user or installer.
2) By using EX0101-HE1/HE2, the transmission distance for 1080P reaches
70 meters. For general HDMI cables, cables must be customized when the
length over 10 meters.
3) EX0101-HE1/HE2 has the ability of buffering and amplifying. Series
connection of EX0101-HE1/HE2 achieves long distance transmission of
HDMI signal. When two pairs or more EX0101-HE1/HE2 are sacked
together, they can be used to create a larger distribution (Daisy chained.)
4) The IR system could control the sources from the sinks or control the sinks
from sources.
EX0101-HE1/HE2 offers solutions for digital entertainment center, HDTV retail
and show site, HDTV, STB, DVD and Projector factory, noise, space and security
concerns, data center control, information distribution, conference room
presentation, school and corporate training environments.
