GefenPRO Extender for HDMI ELR with PoL over CAT5
GEF-HDCAT5-ELRPOL
The Gefen GEF-HDCAT5-ELRPOL is a GefenPRO Extender for HDMI ELR with PoL over CAT5. It extends HDMI 1080p Full HD with Deep color up to 330 feet over a single CAT-5 cable, along with 100Base-T Ethernet, RS-232, IR, and remote 5V DC Power.
The GefenPRO Extender for HDMI ELR with PoL over CAT5 extends a Hi-Def source with multichannel digital audio at resolutions of up to 1080p Full HD to 330 feet (100 meters) using one CAT-5 cable. Also, it has the capability to power a separate 5V DC device from the Receiver unit, sharing the 5V DC power, transmitted over the CAT-5 cable, up to 2 Amps at the Receiver Unit. It supports DVI-D when used with an HDMI to DVI Adapter, providing greater flexibility and options when integrating several home theater components. This product extends Ethernet and provides an IR back channel to control AV sources using the same CAT-5 cable extension. With the built-in IR Blaster, simply point the IR remote(s) at the display to control the Hi-Def sources as if they were located in the same room as the display.
How It Works
The GefenPRO Extender for HDMI ELR with PoL over CAT5 Sender unit is located next to a set-top box or DVD player source. Cables supplied with the GefenPRO Extender for HDMI ELR with PoL over CAT5 connect an HDMI source to the Sender unit. The GefenPRO Extender for HDMI ELR with PoL over CAT5 Receiver unit is located next to the display - up to 330 feet away. The HDTV display plugs into the back of the GefenPRO Extender for HDMI ELR with PoL over CAT5 Receiver unit. One CAT-5 cable connects the Sender and the Receiver units to each other. The Ethernet ports on both the Sender and Receiver units are connected to standard network devices such as 100Base-T routers and hubs. Multichannel digital audio is embedded in the HDMI signal (Dolby TrueHD / DTS-HD Master Audio). To power an additional device, order the optional cable below.
HDMI Features Supported:
- 1080p Full HD

*Note: Power over Line (PoL) is a Gefen proprietary technology that provides 10W of 5 Volt DC power to the Receiver Unit over the single CAT5 signal cable, and allows the Receiver Unit to power additional Gefen devices.
It is based on the Power over Ethernet (PoE) Standards, but is specifically tailored to Gefen's Hi-Def video products.
