What is the SDS-901?
The SDS-901 is a combination of transmitter and receiver devices, de-
signed to transmit high resolution HDMI video and audio signals over CAT 5
-8 wire. AV stands for Audio Visual and includes such signal formats as
Broadcast Video (TV video signal—1080p, 720p & 1080i), Computer Video
(VGA, SVGA, SXGA and etc. signals) and various formats of Audio signals.
Why is SDS-901 necessary?
Sometimes AV signals need to be transmitted over distances greater than
commonly specified product limitations of 5m. In this case several choices
are available, but most are expensive and bulky, which is in some cases
simply not practical, due to space limitations in the conduits.
The SDS-901 allows the transmission of AV signals over a standard CAT 5
–8 UTP cable over distances of up to 100m. The actual distance is a func-
tion of cable type, see below:
How does the SDS-901 work?
The Smart-e SDS-901 is a transmitter and receiver pair designed to extend
HDMI and IR/RS232 signals over (UTP) unshielded twisted pair category 5 -
8 (CAT 5) cabling. They are supplied with a universal input voltage power sup-
ply and consist of a transmitter with a HDMI input and a RJ45 output and a
receiver with a RJ45 input and corresponding HDMI output. Both IR and
RS232 are available simultaneously on 3.5mm mini-jack sockets. The SDS-
901 also has an additional audio channel which can be used for analogue
stereo or S/P DIF via a mini-TOSlink connector all on the same CAT5-8 cable
The system is a ‘plug and play’ solution which no setup required and can com-
pensate for any cable length up to 100m automatically.
