HDMI 1.3 Over Fiber with IR

The Gefen HDMI 1.3 Over Fiber with IR system extends Full 1080p HD deep
color with multichannel digital audio over a single small strand of fi ber optic
cable that can easily be hidden in a wall or above a ceiling. Great distances of
extension can be obtained thanks to the use of fi ber optic cable.

1080p Full HD deep color is displayed at the destination with no signal delays
and no EMI (electromagnetic interference) disturbances such as cut-outs and
pixilation, phenomena that can happen often with copper cables, especially at
long distances. Multichannel digital audio with Dolby TrueHD & DTS Master
Audio helps to deliver a full HD audio/video home theater experience wherever
it is needed. The IR back channel and RS-232C is carried on the CAT5 cable,
providing convenient, local control of video source devices.

How It Works

Install the Sender near your High Defi nition source and the Receiver at the
Display side. Connect HDMI cables from the Sender to your source and from
Display to Receiver. Run a single strand of SC fi ber optic cable from Sender to
Receiver for AV signals, then run a single CAT5 cable from Sender to Receiver
for the IR back channel. Plug in the power supplies on the Sender and Receiver,
and crisp vibrant HDMI 1.3 video will appear on the Display. IR commands
from the remote control to video source equipment are sent across the IR back
channel via the CAT5 cable which connects the Sender and Receiver at their
RJ45 jacks. RS-232C is extended as well for devices that can be controlled via
this protocol at the viewing location.
