The
PRO-HDMI-CAT HDMI 1.3 over Single CAT5
Extender
boosts up the audio/video
transmission distance up to 60m in HDTV 1080i format, 40m in HDTV 1080p format, or 20m in
HDTV 1080p with 36-bit color depth. With only one cost effective solid category cable, users can
readily extend HDTV sources from DVD player, Blu-ray Disc player, PS3, PC, and any other kinds
of sources compliant with TMDS to distant display monitors including HDMI or DVI enabled TV
sets or LCD PC monitors. With the state-of-the-art Silicon Image chipsets embedded, deep color
video, 7.1ch audio, and HDCP supports and compatibility are all further assured. Therefore any
HDMI source device can transmit utmost high quality video and audio over great distance at
minimal cost.
The PRO-HDMI-CAT includes two units: transmitting and receiving units. The transmitting unit is
used to capture the input HDMI or DVI signals and carry the signals through one RJ45 connector
into one cost effective Cat-5/5e/6 cable. The receiving unit is responsible for equalizing the
transmitted HDMI signal. The transmission distance between the sending and receiving units can be
up to 60m at HD (720p/1080i) or 40m at Full HD (1080p). With an 8-level equalization rotary
control on the receiving unit, users can adjust the equalization strength to the received HDMI
signals accordingly, and therefore optimize the transmission distance between source and
destination.

The length depends on the characteristics and quality of the cables.
Higher resolutions and
longer transmission distances require low skew cables (<25ns/100m) for best performance.
Unshielded CAT6 with metal RJ45 connectors is recommended
