Key details for your setup

Place the display where it works best

The VE800A supports HDMI extension over a single Cat5e cable. This gives you more flexibility when the display cannot sit beside the HDMI source. Keep the cable run within 60 m.

Retain display EDID information

A DDC connection lets the system use the display’s EDID. Connect another Cat5e cable for this function. This can help the source use the display’s identification information.

Designed for practical installation

The receiver has a metal construction and LED indicators. It operates in temperatures from 0 to 50°C, with relative humidity from 0 to 80%. The included AC adapter provides power.

Before you order
