The PESA PRO-HDMI-CAT HDMI 1.3 over Single CAT5 Extender boosts your video/audio transmission distance up to 60m (200ft) in HDTV 1080i format, 40m (130ft) in HDTV 1080p format, and 20m (65ft) in HDTV 1080p with 36 bit color depth. With only one cost effective LAN cable, users can readily extend HDTV sources from DVD players, Blu-ray Disc player, PS3, PC, and any other kinds of sources compliant with TMDS to distant display monitors including HDMI/DVI enabled TV sets or LCD PC monitors. With the state-of-the-art Silicon Image chipsets equipped, deep color video, DTS-HD or Dolby TrueHD audio, and HDCP supports and compatibility are all further ensured. This flexibility makes HDCP compliant DVD players or PS3 transmit utmost high quality video and audio with a greater distance at minimal cost, when integrating several components in different locations. The PRO-HDMI-CAT includes two units: transmitting (TX) and receiving (RX) units. The transmitting unit is used to capture the input HDMI/DVI signals and carry the signals through one RJ-45 connector into one cost effective CAT-5/5e/6 LAN cable. The receiving unit is responsible for equalizing the sent TMDS multimedia data. The transmission distance between the sending and receiving units can be up to 60m (200ft) under HD (720p/1080i) or 40m (130ft) under Full HD (1080p). With an 8-level equalization control knob on the receiving unit, users can adjust the equalization strength to the received TMDS signals accordingly, and therefore optimize the transmission distance between source and destination.
