The system’s 4K capability ensures sharp text, vibrant graphics, and immersive video for presentations, demonstrations, and media-rich assets. HDR compatibility enhances contrast and color depth, delivering a more faithful viewing experience even in multi-display layouts.
- 2-Port HDMI distribution over Cat6 with splitter/extender functionality: This versatile device functions as both a splitter and an extender, enabling you to deliver HDMI signals to two displays over a single Cat6/Cat6a run. Perfect for creating parallel presentations in meeting rooms or showcasing synchronized content across adjacent displays at events, it simplifies cabling while maintaining reliable signal quality across distances.
- Power over Cable (PoC) for streamlined installation: Eliminate clutter and reduce the number of power outlets required by leveraging PoC capabilities. By supplying power through the Cat6 infrastructure, this extender minimizes wall-wart adapters and simplifies installation in spaces where power access is limited or where a clean, unobtrusive setup is essential for aesthetics and safety.
- 125 ft transmission distance with multi-resolution support: Extend your HDMI signal over standard copper networks up to 125 feet, enabling flexible placements of source and display locations. The device supports multiple resolutions, enabling compatibility with diverse content and legacy displays while maintaining high-quality signal integrity across the link. This makes it an ideal choice for mid-size rooms, lecture halls, retail displays, and digital signage itineraries where distance can otherwise degrade performance.
- TA A-compliant, enterprise-ready design: Built to deliver dependable performance in professional deployments, this product adheres to Trade Agreements Act (TAA) requirements. Its rugged design and long-term compatibility make it a trusted choice for corporate installations, educational facilities, government spaces, and other environments that demand durable hardware and consistent supply chain parity.

how to install [product]
- Plan your layout: Identify the HDMI source location (PC, media player, or laptop) and determine ideal display placements for the two screens. Ensure you have a Cat6/Cat6a run that supports the distance to each display, up to 125 feet per the product’s stated range.
- Connect the transmitter: Attach the HDMI source to the transmitter’s HDMI input. Connect the Cat6 cable from the transmitter’s Cat6 port to the corresponding receiver unit(s). If PoC is available, ensure the PoC-enabled port is configured according to the user manual.
- Connect the receivers to displays: Use HDMI cables to connect each display to the receiver(s). Verify that each display is powered and set to the correct HDMI input corresponding to the connected receiver.
- Power and configuration: If PoC is used, power will be delivered via the Cat6 link; if separate power is required, plug in the appropriate power supply(s) to the transmitter and receiver(s) as specified in the product documentation. Then, configure the source to output the desired resolution and refresh rate (ideally 4K @ 60 Hz for compatible content) and verify that HDR or multi-resolution content renders correctly on both displays.
- Test and optimize: Run a quick test with representative content to confirm signal integrity, color accuracy, and synchronization between displays. If either display reports no signal, reseat cables and verify HDCP/EDID compatibility between source, extender, and displays. Maintain proper cable management to preserve cable quality and signal performance.
Frequently asked questions
- Q: What is the maximum cable distance supported? A: The device supports transmission up to 125 feet over Cat6/Cat6a cabling, allowing flexible placement of source and display locations while preserving 4K 60 Hz HDR quality where supported by the receiver/display.
- Q: Does it support 4K at 60 Hz and HDR? A: Yes. The system is designed to deliver 4K at 60 Hz with HDR, providing rich color and smooth motion for compatible content and displays.
