EXT-UHD-CAT5-ELRPOL

Extend HDMI, Ethernet, RS-232, and 2-way IR over one CAT-5e
cable, up to 495 feet (150 meters)

The Gefen 4K Ultra HD ELR-POL Extender uses Gefen’s implementation of the
HDBaseT™ technology to extend HDMI up to 495 feet (150 meters) using one
CAT-5e cable. Resolutions up to 4K Ultra HD with 7.1 channels of HBR (High
Bit Rate) lossless digital audio are supported. This product provides Ethernet,
RS-232 and 2-way IR extension between the Sender and the Receiver units,
making 10/100BaseT wired Ethernet connection available at the remote
location without the need to run a separate cable. It also allows the transfer of
IR commands and RS-232 communications between two remote locations.
RS-232 and Bi-Directional IR can be used to control A/V sources placed near
the Sender unit and to send automation commands to the display or another
device placed near the Receiver unit. Gefen’s Bi-Directional POL (Power Over
Line) technology powers the Sender or the Receiver unit using the same cable
that extends the HDMI signal. Only one of the two units needs a power supply.
This feature simplifies installation.

How It Works

The Sender unit is placed near the source and the Receiver unit near the
Display. Connect the supplied locking HDMI cable between the Sender unit and
the source. Connect an HDMI cable between the Receiver unit and the display.
Connect an RS-232 automation device to the Sender unit using the included
Phoenix-to-female DB-9 cable. Connect the Receiver unit to an RS-232­controlled device (such as the display) using the included Phoenix-to-male DB-9
cable. To send an IR control signal from the viewing location to the source unit,
connect the IR output from an automation control device or the included Gefen
EXT-RMT-EXTIRN IR Extender to the IR In/Ext port on the Receiver, and connect
an IR Emitter to the IR Out port on the Sender unit and attach it to the IR Sensor
window of the source. To control devices at the viewing location (such as the
display) via IR from the source side, use the IR In/Ext port on the Sender side
and the IR Out connection on the Receiver side. Connect the Sender and the
Receiver units together using a CAT-5e or better cable. Connect the locking
power supply to either the Sender or the Receiver unit and plug it into an
electrical outlet. Only one of the units needs an external power supply.
The other unit will be powered through the CAT-5 cable. Power up all
associated equipment.

Note: Shielded (STP) CAT-5e or CAT-6 is recommended. Unshielded (UTP)

CAT-5e or CAT-6 may be acceptable depending on cable quality but is not the
best choice. Care should always be given to keep these cables away from power

lines and other sources of electromagnetic interference
