1. All HDMI over CAT5 transmission distances are measured using Belden 1583A CAT5e 125MHz UTP cable and
ASTRODESIGN Video Signal Generator VG-859C & VG-870B.
2. Incorrect placement of IR Blaster and Receiver may result in the failure of the IR extenders. Please check ca-
refully before plugging in the IR extender to the respective IR sockets. Warranty will not cover the damage.
3. The transmission length is largely aected by the type of Cat-5/5e/6 cables, the type of HDMI sources, and the
type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid UTP cables (usually in the form of 300m [1,000ft] bulk
cables) can transmit a lot longer signals than stranded UTP cables (usually in the form of xed length patch
cords). A solid UTP Cat-5e cable shows longer transmission range than stranded STP Cat-6 cable. For long
extension applications, solid UTP/STP cables are the only viable choice.
4. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for Cat-5/5e/6 cables is recommended for better performance.
5. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in Cat-5/5e/6 cable, one can use shiel-
ded STP cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long transmission.
6. Because the quality of the CAT5/6 cables has the major eect on how long the transmission limit can achieve
and how good is the received picture quality, the actual transmission range is subject to one’s choice of Cat-
5/5e/6 cables. For desired resolutions greater than 1080p, a Cat-6 cable is recommended.
7. If your HDMI display has multiple HDMI inputs, it is found that the rst HDMI input [HDMI input #1] generally
can produce better transmission performance among all HDMI inputs.
