Product Description
The EX-HDMI-2A HDMI Extender is a digital signal booster that corrects the signal
degradation that occurs in long HDMI cables. It is perfect for extending a HDMI display
away from the signal source.
If you need to use a long cable to connect your display (such as HDTV) to your video
source, you may see pixilation, sparkles, or loss of video and/or audio when connected
directly using cables longer than about 15 feet. To reconstruct the digital signals, you
need to use an equalizer such as the EX-HDMI-2A. It compensates for the losses of the
LVDS signals on its input, and it also features a switchable boosted video output that can
drive long cables. With quality HDMI copper cables, you can extend 1080p or
1920x1200 resolutions up to about 130 feet total (65 ft on the input and 65 feet on the
output).

Setup and Operation
For extension of the HDMI signal up to 65 feet,
place the EX-HDMI-2A at the remote
end (display end)
. For longer extensions place the EX-HDMI-2A in the middle of the
cable, i.e. connect a 65 ft cable to the input and up to 65 ft cable on the output. When
extending the output set the Enhance Switch to the ON position. To achieve these
distances you must use high quality HDMI cables. Your results may vary. Contact Hall
Research for your HDMI cable needs.
