Top 3 Customer Questions & Concerns πβοΈ
β‘ Can I use any network cable for this? For the best results at the full 30-meter distance, it is highly recommended to use solid copper CAT6 cabling. While CAT5e works, it may limit the maximum resolution or distance due to higher signal attenuation.
π‘οΈ Does this support 4K resolution? This specific model is optimized for 1080p Full HD. If you require 4K support, you would need a dedicated 4K HDMI extender rated for higher bandwidth.
π Do both the TX and RX units need power? Typically, the receiver (RX) unit requires the included 5V DC power supply to amplify the signal after its long journey, while the transmitter (TX) is often powered by the HDMI source.
