INTRODUCTION
The HDMI over CAT-5 Uncompressed extender
The HDMI over CAT-5 Uncompressed Extender sends HDMI
signals over just one CAT-5 cable -- up to 330 feet away.
The HDMI over CAT-5 Uncompressed Extender supports
HDMI 1.2 and HDMI 1.3 with Full HD 1080p resolution. DVI-
D Computer video can also be transmitted with a DVI-to-
HDMI cable.
By using standard and widely available CAT-5 cables,
the HDMI over CAT-5 Uncompressed Extender enables
the HDMI signal extensions to be easier than heavy and
expensive copper cable and more robust than optical fiber.
How it connects

The HDMI over CAT-5 Uncompressed Extender system
consists of a Transmitter and Receiver. The HDMI source
(set-top box, DVD player, or gaming console) connects to
the Transmitter box with HDMI cable. The Receiver box
connects to the HDTV display in the same way -- up to
330 feet away. Single CAT-5 cable links the Transmitter
and Receiver. Power is applied to the Transmitter and
Receiver with the included 5V DC power supplies.
Note:The HDMI over CAT-5 Uncompressed Extender is HDCP 2.0
compliant.
For best results CAT-6 cable is recommended.
