Overview The high quality TP-578H DGKat to HDMI Receiver accepts a DGKat TP (Twisted Pair) signal from a compatible Kramer DGKat transmitter and decodes it into the following signals: HDMI S/PDIF digital audio Balanced and unbalanced audio ...
Up to 100m (330ft) at 1080i or up to 90m (295ft) at 1080p on shielded BC-DGKat7a23 cable Note: The transmission range depends on the signal resolution, the graphics card and the display used. The distance using non-Kramer CAT 6 and CAT 7a cables may not reach these ranges. Using TP cables Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match our digital twisted pair products;...
