Extended Product Information

FAQs

What is the maximum distance this extender can support?

The Lindy Cat.6 HDMI Extender can support distances of up to 50 meters (164 feet) using standard Cat.5e or Cat.6 network cable.

Does this extender support 4K resolution at 60Hz?

Yes, it supports resolutions up to 3840x2160@60Hz 4:4:4 8bit, along with High-Dynamic Range (HDR) content.

Can I use this with my existing network switch?

No, this extender is strictly for point-to-point connections and is not designed to be used in conjunction with active network equipment like switches or routers.

How does the PoC feature work?

PoC (Power over Cable) allows the Transmitter unit to send power through the Cat.6 cable to the Receiver unit. This means you only need to connect the power adapter to the Transmitter, simplifying installation.

What is the benefit of the HDMI loop-through output?

The HDMI loop-through output on the Transmitter allows you to connect a second, local display. This enables simultaneous viewing on both a local monitor and the remote display connected via the Receiver.

Is HDCP 2.2 support included?

Yes, the extender is fully HDCP 2.2 compliant, ensuring compatibility with protected 4K content from sources like Blu-ray players and streaming services.

What types of audio formats are supported?

The extender supports lossless audio formats, including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD, providing high-quality multi-channel sound.

What is the warranty period for this product?

This product comes with a 2-year warranty.

Troubleshooting

No video signal on the remote display.

Ensure all HDMI connections are secure. Verify the Cat.5e/6 cable is properly connected and within the 50m limit. Check that the source device is powered on and outputting a signal. Try a different Cat.5e/6 cable. Ensure the EDID switch is set correctly. Confirm the remote display is set to the correct input.

No video signal on the local (loop-through) display.

Check the HDMI cable connecting the Transmitter to the local display. Ensure the local display is powered on and set to the correct input. Verify the Transmitter is receiving power.

Poor video quality or flickering.

This may be due to cable quality or distance. Ensure you are using a good quality Cat.6 cable. If using Cat.5e, try a shorter cable or upgrade to Cat.6. Check for potential signal interference. Ensure the source resolution and refresh rate are supported.

Audio issues (no sound, distorted sound).

Verify that the source device is configured to output audio in a supported format (Dolby TrueHD, DTS-HD). Check the HDMI cables for secure connections. Ensure the remote display is capable of decoding the audio format being transmitted.

IR control is not working.

Ensure IR receiver and emitter cables are correctly connected to the respective IR ports on both the Transmitter and Receiver units. Verify that the source equipment is compatible with IR control and that the remote control is functional. Ensure there is a clear path for the IR signal.

Receiver unit is not powering on.

Confirm that the Transmitter unit is powered on and connected to a working power outlet. Ensure the Cat.5e/6 cable is securely connected at both ends. The PoC feature relies on a stable power supply to the Transmitter.
