8K HDMI and USB Over HDBaseT Extender - Pin Definition Note: When the angle between the IR receiver and the remote control is ± 45 °, the transmission distance is 0-5 meters; when the angle between the IR receiver and the remote control is ± 90 °, the transmission distance is 0-8 meters.

Application Example

Mode 1: eARC/ARC Application
The Audio Return Channel (ARC) in HDMI 2.1 enables a TV, via a single HDMI cable or audio cable, to send audio data “upstream” to an A/V receiver, the extender will continue the upstream audio all the way to the transmitter.
There it can be connected via HDMI ARC.infobit iTrans E90U8K 8K HDMI and USB
