The ATEN VS1814T is a high-performance 4-Port HDMI over single Cat 5 splitter designed to distribute a single HDMI source to four displays with outstanding image fidelity and synchronized audio across great distances. Built for demanding environments such as classrooms, corporate AV setups, digital signage, and retail environments, this device leverages HDBaseT extension technology to transmit uncompressed HDMI video and audio over a single Cat 5e/6 cable to remote receivers. With its TAA compliance, the VS1814T meets procurement standards required by government, education, and enterprise projects, delivering reliable performance in a compact, installation-friendly package.

  • One input, four displays over a single Cat5e/6 cable. The VS1814T takes a single HDMI source and distributes it to four HDMI displays through dedicated receiver units, enabling synchronized playback across multiple screens while minimizing cable clutter and installation complexity. This makes it an ideal solution for multi-screen signage, control rooms, and lecture halls where consistent content must be shown on every screen without degradation of video quality.
  • HDBaseT extension technology for long-distance distribution. By using HDBaseT, the VS1814T preserves high-definition video and audio across distances up to 100 meters with a single Cat5e cable. This technology combines video, audio, Ethernet, and control signals into one robust, shielded channel, reducing the need for multiple runs and simplifying maintenance in large rooms or campuses. It’s a dependable way to extend HDMI without compromising signal integrity or reliability.
  • HDMI, HDCP, and content protection ready. The VS1814T supports standard HDMI features and HDCP-protected content, ensuring compatibility with a wide range of professional media players, Blu-ray, streaming devices, and secure content sources. With support for essential HDMI capabilities like 3D and Deep Color, you can deliver immersive, flicker-free visuals and accurate color reproduction to every display in the network.
  • TAA compliant with enterprise-grade reliability. This product meets Trade Agreements Act requirements, making it suitable for government and educational procurement. In addition, the VS1814T is engineered for durability and consistent performance in high-traffic AV environments, with solid build quality, robust connectors, and minimal setup effort that reduces the time and cost of deployment.
  • Flexible installation and broad AV application coverage. The VS1814T is designed to fit a wide variety of environments—from classrooms and training rooms to retail kiosks and corporate lobbies. Its modular approach with receiver units allows discreet placement behind displays, under desks, or in AV racks. The system supports scalable deployments, enabling straightforward expansion by adding more receivers as needs grow, while maintaining synchronized content across all outputs.

how to install ATEN 4-Port HDMI Over Single Cat 5 Splitter-TAA Compliant

  • Identify the Transmitter (VS1814T) location near the HDMI source and place the Receiver units near each display.
  • Connect the HDMI output from your video/source device to the Transmitter’s HDMI input using a standard HDMI cable.
  • Run a single Cat5e/6 cable from the Transmitter to each display location and connect each end to the corresponding Receiver unit. Use proper cable routing to avoid kinks, interference, or physical damage.
  • Connect the HDMI output from each Receiver to its display using HDMI cables. Ensure displays are powered and set to the correct HDMI input for each receiver.
  • Plug in the power adapters for both the Transmitter and all Receivers. Power-on all devices and verify that each display shows the same source content with synchronized audio. If EDID control or optimization is required, access the transmitter/receivers’ settings as per the user manual to adjust EDID preferences or extend data management to suit your environment.
  • Perform a final cabling check and run a test loop to ensure consistent performance across all displays. For longer deployments, consider cable testing and route planning to minimize signal loss, and ensure the total cable length remains within the specified 100-meter distance per leg.
