HDMI Receiver for Cat 5 Extension

The ATEN VE812R is a receiver unit that completes a point-to-point HDMI extension over a single Cat 5e cable. It accepts the twisted-pair signal from a compatible transmitter and reconstructs an HDMI output for a display. The metal housing is built for professional AV installations where cable runs exceed standard HDMI limits.

Bundled Power Adapter and Mounting Kit

A 5.3 V DC power adapter is included so the receiver operates without drawing power from the HDMI source. The mounting kit allows the compact unit to be secured to a wall, rack or equipment shelf, keeping cabling tidy in permanent installs. User instructions cover basic setup and LED status interpretation.

Verify Transmitter Compatibility and Cable Grade

This receiver requires a matching ATEN transmitter that uses the same HDBaseT implementation; it will not work with generic Ethernet gear or other brands. The link is rated for 100 m using Cat 5e or better twisted-pair cable, so confirm your installed cable meets that category. Ensure the display accepts 4096 x 2160 or 1080p at 60 Hz, and that the operating environment stays within 0 to 50 °C.

Questions about this item

What maintenance or replacement will the VE812R receiver need over time?

The unit has no user-serviceable parts inside the metal housing; the external DC 5.3 V power adapter is the only component likely to need replacement after extended use.

What limit appears first when the extender runs continuously at 4K resolution?

The 100 m reach over a single Cat 5e cable is the hard distance ceiling; signal integrity drops before thermal or bandwidth limits are reached.

How much heat and noise does the receiver produce during all-day operation?

It draws 4.5 W with no fan, so the metal case runs warm but silent in the 0–50 °C operating range.
