An HDMI extender is primarily used to extend the transmission of HDMI audio and video signals. It consists of a transmitter and a receiver, and they must be used in pairs. Here are the connection steps for an HDMI extender:
- Transmitter Connection: Connect the transmitter of the HDMI extender to the HDMI output port of the signal source device (such as a VCR, computer host, etc.) using an HDMI cable. The transmitter is responsible for signal acquisition and compression.
- Receiver Connection: Connect the receiver of the HDMI extender to the HDMI input port of the display device (such as a monitor, projector, etc.) using an HDMI cable. The receiver is responsible for signal decoding and port allocation.
- Power Connection: Ensure that both the transmitter and receiver of the HDMI extender are properly connected to a power source to ensure normal operation.
- Signal Transmission: Choose a suitable transmission medium (such as network cable, fiber optic cable, etc.) to connect the transmitter and receiver according to your needs. The choice of transmission medium will directly affect the transmission distance and signal quality of the HDMI extender.
