Use the highest quality HDMI extension technology with our HD-Link T. The HD-Link T utilizes HDBaseT technology to ensure that your video quality does not suffer from normal extension issues. HDBaseT is a high quality transmission standard. Uncompressed ultra-HD video (up to 4K) signals are the crowning achievement of this standard. Audio and IR signals are also capable of being transmitted at the same time. The connection is made using Cat5e/6 cable in a point to point mode without sacrificing video quality.
Does the Type of Cat5e or Cat6 Cable You Use Matter?
Since Cat5e/Cat6 extenders (aka Baluns) work differently than typical ethernet networks, the quality of the network cable you use really does matter. The bottom line is that Ethernet networks have corrective measures in place to help balance the data load and prevent packet loss, while point-to-point extenders like this HDBase-T extender don t have this option available to them. For this reason, using cable with extra shielding and extra-robust conductors (like our PureRun Link SSTP Cat6 cables made for extenders) to overcome any potential attenuation issues is recommended.
