HDMI Extender (over Ethernet): Buy in Nairobi, from Pro-Logic Technologies
HDMI cables have a practical distance limitation — beyond 15 to 20 metres, standard HDMI cables suffer from signal degradation that results in image noise, colour shifting, or complete signal loss. For installations requiring HDMI signals to travel greater distances — across a room, through a building, or between floors — an HDMI extender over Ethernet provides the professional solution. Pro-Logic Technologies in Nairobi supplies HDMI extenders for commercial installations, large venues, and home setups with long cable runs.
How HDMI over Ethernet Extension Works
An HDMI extender kit consists of two units: a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter connects to your HDMI source (a media player, PC, or AV receiver) and encodes the HDMI signal for transmission over a standard Cat5e, Cat6, or Cat6A Ethernet cable. The receiver, placed at the display location, decodes the signal and outputs it via a standard HDMI port to your TV or projector.
Because Ethernet cables are inexpensive, widely available, and can be run through walls and conduits easily, this approach is far more practical than running long HDMI cables, which are expensive, rigid, and signal-limited.
Distance Capabilities
Standard HDMI extenders over Cat5e/6 typically support distances up to 50 to 70 metres while maintaining full HD (1080p) quality. Premium 4K HDMI extenders support 4K at 60Hz over distances up to 40–70 metres depending on the cable quality. For very long runs — up to 120 metres — fibre optic HDMI extenders are available.
Ideal Installation Scenarios
HDMI extenders are indispensable for conference rooms where the AV rack is far from the display screens, churches and auditoriums routing signals from a media PC to stage screens, hotels and restaurants distributing content to remote displays, and residential installations where a media server in a utility room feeds TVs throughout the home.
At Pro-Logic Technologies, we stock both single-port and multi-port HDMI extender solutions with varying distance and resolution capabilities.
