If the DVI or HDMI device requires the EDID information, please use EDID Reader/Writer to retrieve and 
provide DVI/HDMI EDID information. 

2.

 

All HDMI over CAT5 transmission distances are measured using Belden 1583A CAT5e 125MHz LAN cable 
and ASTRODESIGN Video Signal Generator VG-859C. 

3.

 

The transmission length is largely affected by the type of LAN cables, the type of HDMI sources, and the 
type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid LAN cables (usually in bulk cable 300m/1000ft form) can 
transmit a lot longer signals than stranded LAN cables (usually in patch cord form). Shielded STP cables are 
better suit than unshielded UTP cables. A solid UTP CAT5e cable shows longer transmission length than 
stranded STP CAT6 cable. For long extension users, solid LAN cables are your only choice. 

4.

 

EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for LAN cables is recommended for better performance. 

5.

 

To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in LAN cable, you can use shielded 
LAN cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long transmission. 

6.

 

Because the quality of the LAN cables has the major effects in how long transmission distance will be made 
and how good is the received display, the actual transmission length is subject to your LAN cables. For 
resolution greater than 1080i or 1280x1024, a CAT6 cable is recommended.
