Frequently Asked Questions
Why use Cat5/Cat6 cabling instead of a long HDMI cable for video distribution?
Network cabling is already installed in most offices; this active extender kit extends video 125 feet over existing infrastructure without need for expensive dedicated cable runs.
Can I extend video from a tablet or smartphone using Micro-HDMI to this extender?
Yes, any device with a Micro-HDMI output (tablets, some cameras, portable projectors) can connect to the transmitter, then extend via Cat5/Cat6 to a distant display.
What does equalization control do, and when do I adjust it?
Built-in equalization automatically optimizes signal quality over Cat5/Cat6 runs; if the display looks fuzzy or has colour shifting, manual adjustment may improve performance—contact Procure.ae for guidance.
How do the RJ45 status LEDs help me verify connection quality?
The LEDs indicate power and link status; steady green indicates a good connection, while amber or red signals potential cable issues or distance problems.
Can I use this extender over Cat7 cabling for even longer distances?
Cat7 cabling is backward-compatible; however, 125 feet is the rated maximum distance—contact Procure.ae if you need longer extensions.
Is there a way to extend the range beyond 125 feet if my office is larger?
At 125 feet, this extender reaches most offices; for greater distances, contact Procure.ae to discuss daisy-chaining or alternative solutions.
How quickly can I receive this HDMI extender kit in the UAE?
Procure.ae supplies across the UAE and GCC on a request-a-quote basis; contact the team for availability and delivery timeframes.
Do you provide installation support for AV infrastructure projects?
Contact Procure.ae to discuss installation, cable routing, or configuration assistance for this extender kit.
What resolution and frame rate does this extender support?
This kit carries 1080p video at 60Hz resolution, suitable for presentations, video conferencing, and display extension in offices and boardrooms.
How is the receiver powered in a remote location?
The receiver is USB-powered, so it requires a USB power adapter or a nearby outlet at the display location; contact Procure.ae for power options.
Is this extender kit covered by warranty?
Contact Procure.ae to confirm warranty coverage and support options for this HDMI over Cat5/Cat6 extender.
