HDMI over Cat 6e cable is a technology that allows HDMI signals to be transmitted over longer distances using Category 6e Ethernet cables. This method utilizes the twisted pairs in the Cat 6e cable to extend HDMI signals up to 60 meters (196.85 feet), while maintaining high-definition video and audio quality.
Here are some key benefits:
- Longer reach: Extends HDMI signals up to 60 meters, making it ideal for applications where devices are far apart.- High-definition video: Supports resolutions up to 4K (3840 x 2160) at 60 Hz, as well as 3D and deep color.- Multi-channel audio: Supports up to 8 channels of audio, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio.- Cost-effective: Utilizes existing Cat 6e infrastructure, reducing installation costs.- Reliability: Less susceptible to interference and signal degradation due to the shielding and twisting in Cat 6e cables.
To use this technology, you'll need:
1. A HDMI over Cat 6e transmitter (sender)2. A HDMI over Cat 6e receiver (receiver)3. A Cat 6e cable (minimum 23 AWG)
The transmitter converts the HDMI signal into a format that can be transmitted over the Cat 6e cable, and the receiver converts it back into an HDMI signal.
This technology is commonly used in:
- Commercial AV installations- Home theaters- Digital signage- Surveillance systems- Education and training facilities
When selecting a HDMI over Cat 6e solution, ensure it is compatible with your specific needs and devices.
