The HDMI® Extender Over Cat6/Cat6A – SKU 006.008.1045 delivers reliable 1080p@60Hz HDMI signal extension up to 50 metres over a single Cat6 or Cat6A network cable. Featuring uncompressed lossless transmission, zero latency, IR passback, EDID passback and transmitter-side-only power, this professional HDMI extender is ideal for residential and commercial AV installations requiring dependable long-distance HDMI connectivity.

Using cost-effective structured network cabling, the 006.008.1045 HDMI Extender overcomes the practical distance limitations of conventional HDMI cables while maintaining signal integrity. The system includes a transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) that operate as a matched pair, providing pure hardware-based transmission with automatic cable matching and no software installation required.
A key installation advantage is Power Over Cable (POC) technology. Only the transmitter requires a power connection, with the receiver powered through the connecting network cable. This reduces cabling and eliminates the need for a separate power outlet at the receiver end.
Built-in IR passback supporting 20–60kHz enables compatible source equipment, such as Blu-ray players and media boxes, to be controlled from the display side. Integrated EDID passback also helps improve compatibility between the HDMI source and connected display.
Important Installation Notes
For UTP solid-core cabling, T568B termination is mandatory. When using S/FTP shielded solid cable, either T568A or T568B is acceptable.
For maximum signal stability, Cat6A shielded patch leads are recommended. Correct cable selection and termination are important for achieving the specified transmission performance.
