INTRODUCTION
This H.265 HDMI® over IP KVM Extender allows you to extend an HDMI
audio/video, USB data, and IR control signals to distances up to 492 feet (150
meters) over a single Cat5e/6 Ethernet cable.
It complies with the HDMI 1.4, HDCP™ 1.4, and USB 1.1 standards. It
supports video resolutions up to 1920×1200@60Hz with YCbCr 4:4:4 color space.
It uses standard H.265 video compression, supports up to 6.75 Gbps video
bandwidth, and supports one-way transmission of IR control signals.
