Transmit a UHD-quality signal over long distances with the GVE4K60KIT 4K Video Extender/Splitter Over Cat 6 Kit from IOGEAR. The kit is an ideal solution for a home theater but can be expanded to accommodate commercial applications. The transmitter can send a 4K signal (3840 x 2160) at 60 Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling over a Cat 6 network with near-zero latency (1 ms). This is ideal for smooth movie playback and responsive gaming. With up to nine additional receiver units (not included), you can split a singular signal across multiple displays.

Transmit a 4K Signal over Cat 6    Supports a Maximum of up to 10 Receivers    Up to 230' Range to First Receiver    Up to 165' Range via Cascading Receivers    3840 x 2160 at 60 Hz at 1 ms Latency    S/PDIF Digital Audio Output on Receiver    ARC Return Channel Support on Receiver    Bi-Directional IR Control    Supports HDMI CEC    Electrostatic Surge Protection

With this kit as-is, you can extend an HDMI signal over Cat 6 in 1-to-1 Mode, which is great for watching a movie on Blu-ray when your player is in a media cabinet in a separate room from your TV or projection screen. With optional additional receivers, you can use Splitter Mode to send the same signal to multiple displays. This is ideal for showcasing advertising or other public-facing information in a large area.

Utilizing Cat 6 cabling across a network, you can send a signal up to 230' away to the first receiver. When using additional receivers, the distance between cascading receivers remains decently long at up to 165'.

Control goes both ways with this IOGEAR extender/splitter kit. The playback source can be controlled from a display-side receiver, and the receiver-side display can be controlled from the source.

Related Questions and Answers

Q: 1. How immediate does the signal switch. I know cheap models have some dead time and blue/black screen when inputs are switched. Is this model instantaneous?

A: The signal switches immediately from the blue ray DVD player back and forth to the DVR (TIVO). When watching TV - and switching back and forth - there is no lag. It works perfectly! No dead time at all.

Q: 2. Latency?

A: Any product that isn't a 1 to 1 connection directly from source to receiving end, there will be some level of latency, including with the A-Neuvideo 1 x 8 HDMI 4K30/1080p Cat 6 Extender Splitter with 8 Receivers.

Q: 3. Is it possible to buy this kit and another receiver, so I can transmit the signal (audio and vdeo) to 2 tv's at the same time?

A: To be able to do that, you would need to either split the signal at the source into 2 wireless systems, or split the signal coming out of the receiver into your displays.

Q: 4. What is the latency in milliseconds?

A: According to IOGear "This unit is rated at near zero latency so it will be less than 1MS."

Q: 5. What is the latency?

A: Model: OMX-HDMI-HDB1X8 has a latency of around 220ms.

Q: 6. Is the tearing a quick dip to black, blue or distortion effect on black?

A: IOGEAR says : Thank you for choosing IOGEAR and we apologize for the inconvenience. To better service you and understand your set up, please feel to contact our customer support at 1-866-946-4327 or email us: support@iogear.com. Once again, thank you for choosing IOGEAR.

Q: 7. Does this unit have auto-switching?

A: It does not auto-switch for any of the components I have. My alternative is to use the Logitech Harmony Elite Remote in order to switch the inputs in conjunction with the components currently in use. It does take a little customization on the input commands, but it works very well.

Q: 8. Is it possible to add one more receiver? I would like to display one source of vdeo on Iwo tv's at the same time

A: Unfortunately IOGEAR does not make the receiver in the GWKIT4K HDMI Connection Kit available standalone for that compatibility.

Q: 9. Does this support HDR?

A: The IOGEAR 4K Wireless HD TV Connection Kit does not support HDR.

Q: 10. Does it conflict with Orbi systems (there was a serious backhaul conflict with their GW3DHDKIT)?

A: No. This system operates on 60 Ghz, the Orbi system operates on WiFi, 2.4 Ghz Designed for Limited Interference Using the 60 GHz frequency band for audio and video helps prevent interference from common wireless devices that transmit on the 2.4 or 5 GHz frequency bands, such as smartphones, laptops, IoT devices, and Wi-Fi devices. The extender provides a dedicated, closed connection for your content, does not require an existing Wi-Fi network, and is engineered for a quick and easy, plug-and-play setup. The transmitter and receiver are pre-paired.
