1. Introduction 

 

The DisplayPort Extender over CAT.6 allows the installation of a Hi-Def display up to 40 meters away from a DisplayPort 
source using two CAT.6 cables. Resolutions can be up to 3840 x 2160 @30Hz over two CAT. 6 24AWG cablings. HDCP is 
also supported. The Receiver is powered by the 2nd CAT.6 cable that extends the DisplayPort signal from the Transmitter, 
eliminating the need for an external power supply on the Receiver.
