BZBGEAR HDMI Extenders Over Category Cable

BZBGEAR HDMI extenders over category cable ensure reliable high-quality video and audio transmission over CAT 5e/6/7 Ethernet cables. Select models offer advanced features such as bidirectional IR, Power over Cable (PoC), 8K/4K120 video support, and audio embedding/de-embedding, catering to a wide range of applications—from essential connectivity needs to specialized AV setups.

BZBGEAR Innovations

BZBGEAR offers a diverse range of HDMI over category extenders, including models with KVM functionality, 8K and 4K120 support, and HDMI-to-USB switching/extending capabilities. Designed for both simple setups and advanced pro AV installations, BZBGEAR solutions deliver seamless integration of multiple features while maintaining cost efficiency, ensuring a streamlined and reliable AV experience.

What are HDMI Extenders?

HDMI extenders are signal extension devices designed to extend the reach of video and audio signals beyond the typical 50-foot limit of standard HDMI cables. By leveraging category cables like Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat6a, HDMI extenders enable signal transmission over much longer distances—up to several hundred feet. This capability is particularly valuable in professional AV setups, educational environments, and large-scale installations where long cable runs are necessary.

What Makes BZBGEAR HDMI Extenders Stand Out

True 8K@60/4K120 Support

BZBGEAR HDMI extenders are designed to deliver unparalleled video quality with true 8K@60/4K@120 support. This ensures that you can transmit high-resolution, 60/120Hz video signals without any degradation, making them ideal for high-definition content applications where clarity and detail are crucial.

Extensive Audio Support

Our extenders go beyond video by offering extensive audio support. They are equipped to handle a wide range of audio formats, including multi-channel audio, ensuring that your sound experience matches the exceptional video quality. This feature is particularly beneficial for complex AV setups where audio and video synchronization is essential.

IR Passthrough

With built-in IR passthrough capability, BZBGEAR HDMI extenders allow you to control your source devices from a distance. This feature lets you operate your devices via remote control even when they are located far from the display, adding convenience and functionality to your AV system setup.

Types of HDMI Extenders

HDMI extenders come in various forms, each suited to different applications. If you require project design assistance to find the right signal extension solution, don’t hesitate to reach out to a BZBGEAR representative:

HDMI Extender Over Cat5e/6

These extenders use Cat5/6 cables to carry HDMI signals. They are cost-effective and ideal for moderate distances, typically up to 330 feet. The Cat5e/6 HDMI extension solutions are popular choices for home theaters and small office setups.

HDMI Extender Over Ethernet

Some extenders utilize standard Ethernet cables and ethernet infrastructure. This method is advantageous for integrating HDMI signals into existing setups and can support longer distances compared to traditional HDMI cables.

4K HDMI Extender

Designed to handle high-resolution video, the 4K HDMI extender ensures that video quality remains intact even at extended distances. These extenders are essential for applications requiring ultra-high-definition content, such as digital signage and high-end home theaters.

HDMI Cat5 Extender

This variant specifically uses Cat5 cables and is suited for shorter distances compared to Cat6. It’s a viable option for situations where ultra-high resolution is not a priority but where cost and flexibility are key considerations.

Choosing the Right HDMI Extender

Selecting the best HDMI extender involves considering several factors. We recommend paying close attention to these three factors:

Distance

Determine the length of the run to choose an extension solution that matches your needs. For short to moderate distances, an HDMI extender over Cat5e/6 may suffice. For longer distances, a more robust solution like an HDMI over HDBaseT might be necessary. When measuring, be sure to consider port accessibility.

Resolution Requirements

Ensure the device supports the desired resolution. For 4K HDMI extenders, check that the device can handle the higher bandwidth requirements of 4K content. The same applies to 8K extenders. We recommend checking the extender’s HDMI compatibility as well.

Compatibility

Verify that the device is compatible with your existing equipment and supports necessary features like HDCP and EDID.

Benefits of Using HDMI Extenders

HDMI extenders offer several advantages:

Extended Reach

They allow HDMI signals to travel over much greater distances than traditional HDMI cables, making them ideal for large installations.

Signal Integrity

By using category cables, extenders maintain signal quality and prevent degradation over long runs. Additionally, ethernet cables can lock into the port to ensure the connection is stable in busy environments.

Flexibility

With various types available, including those that work over Cat5e/6, users can select extenders that best fit their specific needs and existing infrastructure.
