FAQ

Can I use the transmitter and receiver on different floors?
Yes, provided you run a Cat5e/Cat6 cable between the two units. Cat5/Cat6 cable can run up to 1000 feet depending on video resolution.

What is EDID copy and why does it matter?
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) copy ensures the transmitter detects the display's supported resolutions and refresh rates, then relays that information to the video source, maximizing compatibility without manual configuration.
