The Long-Range 5 GHz Wireless Extender System for HDMI from Gefen is a long-range extender system comprised of a sender (transmitter) and a receiver, sending high-definition audio and video to any HDTV display up to 100' away. It extends HDCP-compliant HDMI A/V content from computers, game consoles, set-top boxes, Blu-ray players, and other A/V sources to a remotely located display. HD resolutions up to 1080p Full HD, 7.1-channels of LPCM digital audio, and 5.1 channels of Dolby or DTS formats are supported.
The small and low-profile receiver unit includes a wired IR extender module, and can be hidden away behind the display or inside an equipment cabinet if needed. The sender features two HDMI inputs and an HDMI output for connection to a local display. The end-user can select between the two HDMI sources by using the included handheld IR remote or by pressing the input button on the sender or the receiver unit. The included IR emitter array can be connected to the sender unit and attached to the IR sensor windows of the two HD sources, allowing full control of the source unit from another room simply by pointing the IR remote of the source at the receiver unit. Both units can be attached to a standard 1/4"-20 camera tripod mount, wall mounted, or be placed on a shelf.
The long-range extender system can transmit through walls and does not require line-of-sight placement of its transceivers, making it suitable for high-definition A/V extension in a conference room, classroom, auditorium, home theater, and multi-room A/V installations that feature multiple sources and two displays. This model is configured for Europe with channels 5.19 GHz and 5.230 GHz. This product features firmware update using the Gefen Syner-G Software Suite, available for download from the manufacturer's website.
