Easy to extend HD displays with CAT-5 Extender

We all know this problem. You change the location of a high-defintion video display, touch screen or monitor but come to the conclusion it's moving away from their source or fitted in a remote location. Gefen comes with an easy way to solve this problem by introducing its newest HDMI RS-232 CAT-5 Extender which enables simple signal delivery. The RS-232 and an IR back channel allows users to adjust their displays and its settings from up to 50 metres (150-feet) in distance.

"Entertainment venues, retail spaces and presentation rooms using HDMI sources and displays can use this product to deliver a hi-def source or computer to any location with real-time RS-232 control," said Hagai Gefen, president and CEO, Gefen Inc. A sender and receiver unit connects the A/V source to the remote display using category-5 cables that transmit 1080p full HD resolutions.

It's believed that Gefen's new receiver compensates possible cable skews and ensures high-def video is deliverd with zero signal loss. Priced at $599 we can say this isn't a cheap solution, but gives you the freedom to move displays where ever needed at that exact time.
