UGREEN 90811EU HDMI over Ethernet Extender, 1080p at 60 Hz, up to 50 m

Overview

The UGREEN 90811EU sends an HDMI picture and sound over one ordinary network cable to a TV or display up to 50 m away. The kit has a transmitter at the source end and a receiver at the display end, so a recorder, PC or player can stay in another room while the screen sits where people watch it. It suits a CCTV monitor in a guard room, a classroom projector or a shop display.

Is it right for you?

• Suits 1080p at 60 Hz sources. It is not for 4K.
• A point-to-point link: one network cable runs directly between the transmitter and the receiver, not through a network switch.
• Audio is PCM 2.0 stereo only; surround formats are not carried.
• Suits runs through walls and ceilings where a long HDMI cable would be impractical, and lowers wiring cost.

Key features

• Up to 50 m over Cat5e or Cat6 network cable.
• 1080p at 60 Hz, backward compatible with lower resolutions, with HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) 1.4.
• RGB and YCbCr 4:4:4 and 4:2:2 at 8-bit colour, with 3D support.
• PCM 2.0 audio up to 24-bit, 192 kHz.
• EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) auto-recognition and EDID copy, so the source picks a resolution the display accepts.
• Video bandwidth up to 4.45 Gbps.
• Alloy shells dissipate heat, and the units are designed for 24/7 operation.

What else you need

• One Cat5e or Cat6 cable of up to 50 m between the two units.
• Two HDMI cables: source to transmitter, and receiver to display.
• Power for each unit through its DC 5.5 mm input.

Installation

An AV or CCTV installer, or a confident DIYer, can fit it. Run and terminate the network cable, connect it directly between the transmitter and receiver, connect the HDMI cables and power both units.

Before you buy

• Do not route the link through a network switch; connect the two units directly.
• Resolution is limited to 1080p, so it is not for 4K sources.
• Audio is PCM 2.0 stereo only.
• Both units need power.
