I installed these in a sale barn between a 4K video camera and a large screen monitor. I used a 130' CAT6 cable between the transmitter and the receiver. The Extender worked perfectly. I give it 5 stars!

When using a HDMI extender like the Vanco Evolution 4K HDMI Extender the maximum distance we would recommend sending the signal over Cat6 is 100m or 328ft.

It does not say if a power adapter is included. If not do you have a recommended supply?
Asked by: Gordon
In the overview portion of the listing, when you navigate by scrolling down, you will see the "In The Box," to the right side where in this case it clearly states the 12VDC Power Supply is included in your purchase of the Vanco Evolution 4K HDMI Extender. The device can also be powered with POE with no more than 3.5W of power consumption at any time.
