Product Description
The HDMI Extender Over Ethernet RJ45 - Cat5e/Cat6 - 1080P Full HD – 30m (100ft) Transmitter & Receiver Kit + 2x EU PSU carries an HDMI picture and its sound down one network cable. Use it when the screen is too far from the source for an ordinary HDMI lead.
What the specs mean in use
- Up to 30m (100ft): the source and the display can sit that far apart, joined by a single RJ45 cable.
- 1080p at 60Hz: Full HD video. This is a 1080p maximum, so 4K is not supported.
- Cat5e or Cat6 cable: either works. Cat6 pure-copper cable is recommended for best performance.
- HD audio: DTS-HD, Dolby TrueHD, DTS and Dolby Digital are supported.
- EDID copy: EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is how a display tells a source what it can show. Copying it helps the source match the TV, monitor or projector.
What you need to add
- A source with an HDMI output, such as a PS4, PS5, Xbox, Sky box, Apple TV, Fire TV, Blu-ray player, PC or laptop.
- A TV, monitor or projector with an HDMI input.
- The Cat5e or Cat6 cable run between the two units.
- Two mains sockets, one per unit.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does this HDMI extender support 4K?
No. Maximum resolution is 1080p (Full HD) at 60Hz.
Can I use Cat5e cable, or do I need Cat6?
Either Cat5e or Cat6 works over the 30m (100ft) range. Cat6 pure-copper cable is recommended for best performance.
Does it need a network switch or software?
No. It is plug-and-play, with one cable run between the transmitter and the receiver. No drivers, software or switch are needed.
Will my remote control work through the extender?
No. The kit has no IR pass-through, so infrared remote signals are not sent along the cable.
