HDMI HDBaseT-Lite Receiver

The ATEN VE801R receives HDMI signals extended over a single Cat 5e, Cat 6 or Cat 6a cable from a compatible transmitter. It is built for installers and AV professionals who need to place a display up to 70 metres away from the source without running long HDMI leads.

Power draw and operating range

The unit draws 4.23 W from a locking 5 V DC supply and operates reliably between 0 and 50 °C. Its metal housing and HDBaseT anti-jamming design resist signal interference during extended transmission, while humidity tolerance spans 40 to 85 % RH non-condensing.

Maximum 4K distance

4K resolution at 60 Hz 4:2:0 reaches 40 m over Cat 6a or ATEN 2L-2910 Cat 6 cable, dropping to 35 m over Cat 5e or standard Cat 6. For 1080p the link extends to 70 m on Cat 6a, so buyers needing longer 4K runs must plan cable category accordingly.

Questions about this item

How do I mount the VE801R receiver and what step is often missed?

Use the side-panel slip-resistant grooves to secure the unit in a rack or on a surface; the step often missed is not engaging the grooves fully, which can let the receiver shift and obscure the LED status lights.

What maintenance or replacement will the VE801R need over time?

The receiver itself has no user-serviceable parts; only the external Cat 5e/6/6a cable or the 5 V DC locking power adapter may need replacement if damaged or if a longer run up to 70 m is required.

At what distance does 4K 60 Hz 4:4:4 stop working on the VE801R?

4K 60 Hz 4:4:4 is supported up to 30 m; beyond that the receiver drops to 4K 60 Hz 4:2:0 at 35 m on Cat 5e/6 or 40 m on Cat 6a, and 1080p reaches 60 m on Cat 5e/6 or 70 m on Cat 6a.
