Important! 4K signals are sensitive to cable quality and installation technique. It is recommended to use
CAT6a/7 Solid core cables for best results.
Note: For cable distances see the specifications on page 7
Connector
Connector type and size is very important to ensure extenders work correctly. Please use the
matching cable type with the correct RJ45 connector.
CAT5e and CAT 6 cables should use only CAT5e RJ45 connectors
CAT6a cables should use only CAT6a connectors
CAT7 cables should use only CAT7 connectors
Using the wrong size of connectors may result in interference causing loss of signal.
Important! "EZ RJ45 connectors" are not recommended with HDBaseT extenders. Doing so may result in stray EMI/RFI
signals to be picked up and interfere with audio and video transmissions.
