Product Information

Full details

The Lindy 150m Cat.6 HDMI 4K60, USB 2.0 & IR HDBaseT KVM Extender is designed for professionals needing to extend high-resolution video, USB 2.0, and IR signals over long distances using standard Cat.6 network cabling. Its key benefit is providing a reliable, high-performance extension up to 150 meters, ideal for digital signage, event displays, or large conference rooms, with the added flexibility of Power over Cable (PoC). A potential caveat is that optimal performance and maximum distance are dependent on the quality of the Cat.6 cable used, and performance may reduce with additional network components.

Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum resolution supported at 150 meters?

At the maximum distance of 150 meters, the extender supports 1920x1080@60Hz (Full HD). For 3840x2160@60Hz (4K UHD), the maximum distance is 100 meters in HDBT mode.

Can I use a Cat.5e cable with this extender?

While Cat.5e cable might work for very short distances, it is not recommended. For optimal performance and to achieve the advertised distances, a high-quality Cat.6 U/UTP or F/UTP cable is required. Using Cat.5e will result in significantly reduced transmission distances and potential signal degradation.

What type of USB devices can I connect to the receiver?

In HDBT mode, you can connect USB 2.0 devices such as keyboards, mice, webcams, printers, or external storage for data transfer. In Long Reach mode, only USB HID (Human Interface Device) class devices, like keyboards and mice, are supported.

How does Power over Cable (PoC) work?

PoC allows power to be sent from the transmitter unit to the receiver unit through the single Cat.6 network cable. This means only one power supply is needed for the entire setup, typically connected to the transmitter, simplifying installations where power outlets are limited at the display location.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Lindy 150m Cat.6 HDMI 4K60, USB 2.0 & IR HDBaseT KVM Extender comes with a 2-year warranty.

Can I extend signals through network switches or routers?

No, this extender is designed for a point-to-point connection between the transmitter and receiver using a direct Cat.6 cable. It is not intended to be used with network switches, routers, or other network infrastructure, as this will not extend the range and may cause signal issues.

What is the bandwidth of this extender?

The extender supports a bandwidth of 18 Gbit/s, which is necessary for transmitting 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 8-bit signals.

Troubleshooting

No video signal at the receiver.

Verify that both transmitter and receiver units are powered on. Check that the HDMI cables are securely connected to the source, display, transmitter, and receiver. Ensure the Cat.6 cable is properly terminated and undamaged, and within the supported distance limits for the desired resolution. Try a different Cat.6 cable.

USB devices are not recognized at the receiver.

Ensure you are using HDBT mode for full USB 2.0 support, or verify that your devices are USB HID compliant if using Long Reach mode. Check that the USB cable is securely connected to the transmitter and receiver. Try connecting the USB devices directly to the source to confirm they are functioning.

Image quality is poor or flickering.

This is often due to the quality or length of the Cat.6 cable. Ensure you are using a high-quality Cat.6 U/UTP or F/UTP cable. Remove any inline couplers, wall plates, or patch panels that could degrade the signal. Reduce the transmission distance if possible. Verify HDR settings on source and display are compatible.

Receiver unit does not power on (when expecting PoC).

Confirm that the power adapter is securely connected to the transmitter and that the transmitter is powered on. Ensure the Cat.6 cable is of sufficient quality and within the distance limitations for PoC to function. If the issue persists, try powering the receiver directly with its own adapter (if available) to test its functionality.

IR control is not working.

Verify that the IR cables are connected to the correct input/output ports on both the transmitter and receiver units. Ensure the IR devices themselves are functional and positioned correctly to send/receive signals. Check that the correct mode (HDBT or Long Reach) is enabled if there is a switch, and that IR is supported in that mode.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Extends high-resolution 4K video and USB 2.0 signals over 150m.
  • Power over Cable (PoC) simplifies installation and reduces power outlet dependency.
  • Supports HDR for superior visual quality.
  • Bi-directional IR control adds significant convenience for remote operation.
  • Secure screw-type DC power connector prevents accidental disconnections.

Cons

  • Maximum distance and performance are heavily dependent on Cat.6 cable quality.
  • Using non-Cat.6 cables, wall plates, or couplers will reduce transmission distances.
  • USB 2.0 support is limited to HDBT mode; Long Reach mode only supports USB HID devices.
  • Requires two units (transmitter and receiver) and a Cat.6 cable for operation.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Connect your HDMI source device to the HDMI input on the transmitter unit.
  2. Connect your USB devices (keyboard, mouse, etc.) to the receiver unit's USB ports.
  3. Connect your HDMI display to the HDMI output on the receiver unit.
  4. Connect the transmitter and receiver units using a high-quality Cat.6 U/UTP or F/UTP network cable (up to 150m).
  5. Connect the power adapter to the transmitter unit. If PoC is functioning correctly, the receiver will power up without its own adapter.
  6. Connect IR transmitters/receivers to the respective ports on both units for bi-directional IR control.
  7. Ensure all connections are secure.

Compatibility:

  • Cable: Requires Cat.6 or higher quality U/UTP or F/UTP cable for optimal performance and maximum distance. Using Cat.5e or lower will significantly reduce distance capabilities.
  • Resolutions: Supports up to 3840x2160@60Hz (4K UHD) with 4:4:4 8bit or 4:2:2 12bit color depth in HDBT mode (up to 100m). Supports 1920x1080@60Hz (Full HD) up to 150m.
  • USB: Supports USB 2.0 devices in HDBT mode. Supports USB HID (Human Interface Device) class devices in Long Reach mode.
  • HDCP: Compliant with HDCP 2.2.
  • HDR: Supports High Dynamic Range content.

Care:

  • Keep the units in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating.
  • Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid liquid cleaners.
  • Ensure the Cat.6 cable is not kinked or damaged.
  • Periodically check all cable connections for security.
