  • Page 16: Compatible Cabling

    2.7 Compatible Cabling HD View HDMI works with CAT5/5e/6/7 data cabling. Some skew-free CAT5 cabling is specific to a particular vendor and is not compatible with Black Box products. Because of the manufacturing methods, CAT6 cable can exhibit greater skew than standard CAT5/5e and may require skew compensation beyond what the HD View HDMI offers.
