HDMI 4K Extender over Single Cat6 w/ IR Extension - 229ft

When trying to extend a HDMI connection, using longer HDMI cables may not be an option, nor may it be easy to run the cable in the walls of your residential or commercial building when compared to Ethernet cables. The HDMI extender over Cat6 cable provides an efficient and simple method to extend the HDMI connection using Ethernet cables. With support for resolutions up to 4K 60Hz at 229 feet, expanding the HDMI signal couldn't be easier, while supporting Ultra HD resolutions for an optimal viewing experience.

How it Works

The HDMI extender comes with a sender and receiver. The sender will plug into a HDMI source, such as a Blu-ray or DVR player. On the other end of the sender is a Cat6 RJ45 Ethernet port. A Cat6 cable is plugged into the RJ45 Ethernet port and then plugged into the other end on the receiver side. On the receiver side, another HDMI cable would then plug into a display for output. IR cables are also included for using a remote control.

Metal Enclosure

Constructed with a metal enclosure, the HDMI extender provides a solid and sturdy build that can be used in a variety of applications.

4K 60Hz HDR Support

The HDMI extender supports resolutions up to 4K / 60Hz at 229 feet with Cat6/6a, delivering stunning picture quality at a longer distance. For those limited by 1080p over longer distances, this solves the issue.

IR Support

What's the point in extending a HDMI signal if you can't control the source device remotely. The extender includes IR support, allowing IR cables to be plugged in on the sender and receiver side. This provides remote control functionality on the display side.

HDMI Loopout, S/PDIF Audio Output, Lightning, Surge, and ESD protection

The HDMI extender features an HDMI loop out port for connecting and viewing a local HDMI display. The extender also includes a independent S/PDIF audio port for extracting and outputting audio. Easily switch between the two audio output modes on the receiver, ARC or S/PDIF. Audio Return Channel (ARC): Allows user to have one connection between TV to audio receiver or sound bar. Send video to the TV with an HDMI cable and the same HDMI cable sends audio from TV back down the same cable. Lightning, Surge, and ESD protection are all built into the device to keep it safe and lasting long.
