Tripp Lite HDMI Over Cat5/Cat6 Active Extender Kit, Transmitter & Receiver, Power over Cable

Long display runs get tricky when the display hangs on a high ceiling or across a large room with no outlet nearby. This extender pair pushes video and audio across copper network cable. Power travels over the same run to keep the remote end uncluttered.

What it does

How this one is built

Receiver power over cable

The remote unit draws its operating power directly through the network line. You plug the power brick into the source end and leave the display side free of bulky adapters, which helps when mounting on high rafters or behind a clean sign.

Equalization adjustment switch

Long runs can soften an image or introduce jitter before the signal hits the panel. A built-in equalization dial lets you tune the incoming signal until the picture sharpens up on the display, matching the characteristics of your particular cable pull.

Audio and video transport

High-definition video moves alongside stereo or multi-channel surround sound across the single twisted-pair link. Both the transmitter and receiver lock onto standard source formats so digital signage, presentations and media feeds come through intact.

Plug and play deployment

Connect your video source, patch in the link cable, and hook up the monitor. The hardware works across operating systems without software drivers, and both boxes carry the build standards needed for federal procurement schedules.
