Product Features
Technical Overview
This HDMI over Ethernet extender utilizes advanced signal processing to maintain 4K Ultra HD resolution at 60Hz refresh rates across extended distances. The system supports 2-channel audio transmission alongside video, ensuring synchronized audio-video playback for presentations, digital signage, and multimedia applications.
The extender operates over standard CAT6 or CAT6a cabling, with the transmitter unit distributing power to both receivers through the Ethernet cables. This power-over-cable design simplifies installation by eliminating the need for separate power sources at each receiver location, reducing cable clutter and improving deployment flexibility in spaces with limited power access.
Key Product Advantages
This HDMI distribution kit offers several distinct advantages for professional AV deployments. The power-over-cable architecture means only the transmitter requires connection to the included universal power adapter, with both receivers drawing power through the CAT6/6a cables. This significantly reduces installation complexity and eliminates the need for multiple power outlets near display locations.
Simplified Installation
No drivers, software, or IP configuration required. The plug-and-play design works immediately with any source device and display combination.
- Compatible with all major operating systems
- Works with Intel, AMD, and Apple Silicon platforms
- No network configuration needed
Versatile Mounting
Includes mounting brackets for wall, ceiling, or under-table installation at both transmitter and receiver locations.
- Compact form factor for discreet placement
- Three mounting kits included
- Flexible deployment in tight spaces
Deployment / Use Cases
This HDMI extender and splitter is ideal for commercial environments where high-quality video distribution over distance is required. The 1x2 configuration allows a single source to drive two displays simultaneously, making it perfect for digital signage applications in retail stores, airports, or corporate lobbies where consistent messaging across multiple screens is essential.
In educational settings, the system enables instructors to share content from a central computer to multiple classroom displays without signal degradation. For corporate boardrooms and conference rooms, it provides reliable HDMI extension for presentations and video conferences, with the extended distance capability allowing for flexible room layouts and equipment placement.
