Important Cable Note
For reliable, high-quality signal transmission, use a genuine solid-core CAT5e or CAT6 UTP cable. Low-quality cables such as oxygen-free copper-clad aluminum (CCA) or oxygen-free copper-clad silver (OCCS) are not compatible and may result in poor signal quality or no signal at all. Always use pure copper conductor Ethernet cable for best results.
Ideal Use Cases
- Home theater and living room AV setups
- Office and conference room presentations
- Digital signage and retail display installations
- Gaming rooms and media centers
- Classrooms and lecture halls

Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What type of cable do I need to use with this 4K HDMI Extender?
A: You need a genuine solid-core pure copper CAT5e or CAT6 UTP Ethernet cable up to 30 meters in length. Do not use low-cost cables made from copper-clad aluminum (CCA) or copper-clad silver (OCCS) — these materials cannot reliably carry the HDMI signal and will result in degraded or no video output.
Q: Does this HDMI extender support 4K resolution?
A: Yes. This HDMI extender supports both 1080p Full HD and 4K resolution, making it suitable for high-definition displays, projectors, and 4K monitors. Signal quality depends on cable quality and staying within the 30-meter maximum distance.
Q: Is any special software or driver required to use this HDMI extender?
A: No. This is a plug-and-play device. Simply connect the transmitter unit to your HDMI source, run a CAT5e/6 UTP cable to the receiver unit, and connect the receiver to your display. No driver installation or configuration is needed.
Q: What devices are compatible with this HDMI extender?
A: The extender is compatible with any device that has a standard HDMI port, including laptops, desktop PCs, Blu-ray players, game consoles (PS4, PS5, Xbox), streaming boxes, and set-top boxes, and works with HDMI-equipped TVs, monitors, and projectors as the output display.
