4K60 HDMI Extender over Ethernet

The DVDO-CAT4K-50 extends HDMI signals up to 164ft or 50m using a single CAT5e or CAT6 cable. It supports resolutions up to 4K2K at 60Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling and 18Gbps bandwidth. The unit is HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant for protected content playback. It suits installers needing long-distance video distribution in commercial or residential settings.

HDMI Loop Output and Two-Way PoC

The transmitter includes an HDMI loop output for connecting a local display or daisy-chaining another extender. Two-way Power over Cable allows either the transmitter or receiver to power the link, reducing the need for extra outlets. Automatic EDID copy lets you select local or remote EDID for optimal compatibility. One-way IR pass-through enables remote source control from the display location.

Category Cable Distance and Bandwidth Limits

Signal reach is limited to 164ft or 50m over CAT5e or CAT6 cabling. The 18Gbps bandwidth ceiling restricts use to 4K60 4:4:4 and excludes higher refresh rates or deeper colour formats. Audio support tops out at PCM 7.1, Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD without newer object-based codecs. The extender does not support fibre or wireless transmission for longer runs.

Questions about this item

Will the CAT5e or CAT6 cable need replacement if I later run it through walls at the full 164ft distance?

The extender is rated for 164ft over CAT5e or CAT6; using certified cable at that length avoids signal loss, so replacement is only needed if the cable is damaged or downgraded.

What limits 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 transmission before distance becomes an issue?

The 18Gbps bandwidth ceiling of the HDMI 2.0 link is the first bottleneck; it caps 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 regardless of cable quality.

Does the transmitter or receiver generate noticeable heat or fan noise during all-day operation?

The units use two-way PoC with no internal fan, so they run silently and produce only modest warmth typical of compact HDMI extenders.
