The Vanco 280723 HDMI Cat5 Balun/Extender Kit with IR is the perfect solution for sending a long distance HDMI signal from an AV component to a HD display and transmitting an IR signal back to that component from the display. Connect the signal source such as Blu-Ray Player, Play Station 3, audio/video receiver, cable or satellite receivers and computers equipped with HDMI output interfaces with a short
high speed HDMI cable to the HDMI Transmitter input. Connect the HDMI Transmitter output RJ-45 ports using dual-runs of
Cat 5e or
Cat 6 UTP cables to the included Receiver, which does not require a power supply. Connect the HDMI output from the Receiver to high-definition display devices such as HD-LCD, HD-DLP and HD projectors with HDMI input interfaces. Use high-speed HDMI cables that are recommended for the distances that are required for each connection.
Super IR ControlThese active extenders units have the capability of transporting IR signals over the UTP cables. These extenders can control the source from the display. This is accomplished by using an optional
IR Receiver pigtail attached to the receiver pointing away from the display and the
IR Transmitter / Sender / Emitter pigtail attached to the sender and pointed at the source. (This product is only compatible with Vanco's Super HDMI IR Accessories)
