The Extron HDMI 201 extender sends HDMI plus bidirectional control signals up to 200 feet (60 meters) on two CATx cables. This HDCPcompliant extender set maintains superior image quality of high resolution computer-video and HDTV signals throughout the system.

The Extron HDMI 201 Tx/Rx is a transmitter and receiver set that enables HDMI signals to be carried over distances significantly beyond the capability of standard HDMI or DVI cables. Linked together using two economical and integration friendly CAT 5e, CAT 6, CAT 7, or Extron STP201 cables, the HDMI 201 Transmitter and receiver work together to send HDMI or single link DVI signals over 200 feet (60 meters) for HDTV and XGA 1024×768. For convenient, streamlined system integration, RS-232 signals can be transmitted over the same cabling as the HDMI signals, providing remote display control. Additionally, either the transmitter or receiver can be remotely powered over this cabling, so that external power is necessary for only one of the devices. The HDMI 201 Tx transmitter and HDMI 201 Rx receiver are housed in 1″ (2.5 cm) high, quarter rack width metal enclosures.
