Frequently Asked Questions

What are signal distribution and extenders?

Signal distribution equipment sends compatible audio or video signals to multiple destinations, while extenders help transmit signals over longer distances than standard cables typically support.

What is the difference between an HDMI splitter and an HDMI extender?

An HDMI splitter sends one source signal to multiple displays. An HDMI extender transmits a signal over a longer distance using a supported connection method.

Can HDMI extenders work over Cat6 cables?

Yes. Certain HDMI extenders use Cat6 or Cat6a cabling, but the supported cable category, distance, resolution, and other requirements depend on the specific model.

Can I connect one laptop to multiple screens?

Yes. A compatible HDMI splitter or distribution system can send the same source to multiple displays. If you need different content on different screens, you may require a matrix switcher or another suitable system.

Are signal extenders compatible with interactive whiteboards and projectors?

Many are, provided the extender supports the connection standards, resolution, refresh rate, and other requirements of the source and display devices.
