INTRODUCTION

The Evolution by Vanco EVEX2004 HDMI Extender over Single Coax with Bi-directional IR extends high 

definition video and audio signals and IR, at a distance of up to 394ft/120m over RG6 coaxial cable, 

and 164ft/50m over RG59 coaxial cable.  Features Bi-directional IR, which allows for control of the 

source or display.  Also features EDID management, which allows and encourages source and display 

“handshake” for seamless integration.  With just a single coaxial cable, high definition sources with HDMI 

outputs can be connected to high definition displays with HDMI inputs over long distances.  DTS-HD 

or Dolby TrueHD audio, and HDCP is supported and compatible with the EVEX2004.  Compact design 

with mounting ears included, for an easy and flexible installation.  A great solution for applications which 

already have an existing coaxial cable in place. 
The EVEX2004 includes two units: transmitting unit (EVEX2004-TX) and receiving unit (EVEX2004-

RX).  The transmitting unit is used to capture the HDMI input with IR signals and carries the signals 

via one coaxial cable.  The receiving unit is responsible for equalizing the transmitted HDMI signal and 

reconstructing IR and serial control signals.  The EVEX2004 offers the most convenient solution for 

HDMI extension over a single coaxial cable with long distance capability, and provides a solution in 

applications where additional cables cannot be installed.
