Introduction
The HDMI v1.3 to CAT6 Distribution Amplifier Series is the most advanced
solution for Video/DDC signal distribution. This CAT6 output ports can easily
connected to CAT6 to HDMI receiver and then to the display. Each product in
this series is compatible to HDMI v1.3 specifications, a cutting-age technology
which defines the support to transfer Deep Color (10-bit and 12-bit) video and
new lossless compressed (Dolby TrueHD, Dolby Digital Plus and DTS-HD Master
Audio) digital audio, with a high bandwidth up to 225MHz (6.75Gbps). Besides
splitting and distributing, the Video/DDC CAT6 output also does signal
amplification and equalization, so as to provide high performance I/O of
audio and video.
