NOTICE
1. Vanco HDMI and Cat5e/6 cables are strongly recommended for use with this product to ensure best
results.
2. Incorrect placement of IR Blaster and Receiver may result in the failure of the IR extenders. Please check
carefully before plugging in the IR extender to the respective IR sockets.
3. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of Cat5e/6 cables utilized, the type of HDMI
sources, and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid UTP cables (usually in the form of
300m [1,000ft] 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 Cat5e/6 cable shows longer transmission range than stranded STP Cat-6 cable. For long
extension applications, use solid UTP/STP category cables.
4. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for Cat5e/6 cables is recommended for better performance.
5. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in Cat5e/6 cables, one can use
shielded STP cables to improve EMI problems, which worsens in long cable transmission.
6. The quality of Cat5e/6 cables can have a major effect on how long the transmission limit can achieve and
quality of picture, the actual transmission range is subject to the Cat5e/6 cable utilized. For the best
results, Cat6 is recommended.
7. 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.
