Quality and performance is great, but similar solutions are available much more cheaply now. This device runs very hot 24/7, so it needs to be manually unplugged when not in use.

We had a specific application for this:A large building, with one end having a camera, and another end a TV. We needed the cameras live feed to show on the TV - approximately 300ft away. We ran a ethernet cable, hooked everything up, and viola. Worked like a charm. I honestly did not think it was gonna work for some reason or another, but it totally did, audio and all. And from out tests, zero latency.We tried a couple others from some other brands that were cheaper, and they did work as well, but this one didn't cut out or have any fuzzy artifacts.

I purchased one of these late last year and it worked as it stated for about two months. Then one day, it just quit. I figured it was just a defective unit and that was that. Since the product line we were using this for was going away, I did not see the need to purchase another one. That was, until I needed another one for a different area of our facility. I purchased another one and it worked as it should for about 2-3 months, then it just quit. This unit was in a climate controlled area (70 - 75 degrees F), but I noticed it would get fairly warm (borderline hot). I only noticed this because I had this attached to the backside of a PC monitor that would need to be turned a different direction from time to time. When the monitor was turned, the monitor would frequently lose the video signal from the device. I figured it was a loose HDMI port connection. So I would hold the device and I would slightly move the HDMI cable until the signal came back. That's when I noticed it would almost always be very warm to the touch.Long-story-short...it works until it dies, which may not be very long. $155 for something that only lasts a few months is not acceptable.

These do what they say they will and are wonderful as you don't need to power the receiver. We've purchased over 100 of them for installation in our client's offices and we've never had one break.

Ottimo prodotto per portate un segnale 4k tramite cavo etherney cat6 da libreria a tv a parete. Se avete il cablaggio di rete è un’ottima soluzione

今まで色々なタイプのHDMI延長器の類を試してきました。電源が要らない中間アダプタのようなもの、電源をUSBから取るアンプの入ったもの、ACアダプタで給電するもの・・・。全部ダメでした。少しばかりの効果はあったものもありますが、私の環境、「複数の映像機器→HDMIマトリクスセレクタ(中華)→リビングTV/AVアンプ/4KのPCモニタ」という組み合わせで、4KのPCモニタだけ壁の中を通したHDMIケーブル約15mにうまく対応出来ず、時折映像がチラチラしたり消えてしまったりという症状に悩まされ続けてきました。「4KのPCモニタ」と書きましたが、これまで3枚の液晶モニタ(内1台はFHD)を入れ替えておりますので、モニタの相性という訳でも無いと思われます。で、なかなかに高価な本製品を試すのは勇気が必要だったのですが、半ばやけくそで購入してみました。結果「なんじゃこりゃ完璧じゃん」IPベースという事で遅延も心配していたのですが、気のせいかも知れませんがむしろ遅延が少なくなったような気がします。マトリクスセレクタの近くにあるAVアンプから出力される音声と、離れた場所の4Kモニタから出力される音声を同時に聞いても気持ち悪くならない程度(通じるかなー)です。距離は変わらず15m程度なので、本来この製品がカバー出来るはずの距離を試した訳では無いのですが、少なくとも他のHDMIケーブル同士を接続したり長いHDMIケーブルを使うHDMI延長器・リピータと比較した場合は完全にこちらの製品が上だと考えて良いでしょう。使用したLANケーブルは市販のCAT5Eケーブル15m(フラットでは無い)でした。HDMIの延長で苦しんでいる方、SDI?はあ?ナニソレ美味しいの?という方、安い延長器を色々試すくらいなら奮発してこのタイプの製品を購入した方が幸せになれますよ。メーカーの回し者じゃないですが、全力でオススメします。

Avec ce matériel, je n'ai pas pu obtenir un signal audiovisuel correct au bout le 30m de câble RJ45 cat6 SFTP en AWG27. La définition de la TV a dû être abaissée au dessous du full HD, et encore l'image sautait par insuffisance de signal. J'ai testé avec 2 extendeurs pour en avoir le cœur net. Le SAV de Startech a été réactif et sympa, mais cela n'a rien changé : la qualité du matériel est insuffisante et ne répond pas au descriptif : portée de 70m avec du cat5 ! Et même en installant une 2è alimentation (car il n'y en a qu'une fournie) ça n'a rien changé. Il se trouve qu'un concurrent propose un produit à 69 euros avec 2 alimentations et qui marche très bien.

Works better than i expected. The smaller box gets pretty hot but that hasnt caused a problem yet.Update: First the product has been running for several months without an issue. I bought another set and attempted a 200 ft run and figured I would use the best cable available so I purchased a CAT6 shielded cable. Well that actually didn't work. I contacted StarTech via chat and was on the line with an agent in probably 2 minutes or less and they had an immediate answer: Use CAT5. Higher rated cable such as CAT6 or CAT7 have tighter twisted wire so the overall length of the actual copper is much longer than a CAT5 wire. I purchased a high quality CAT5 cable and everything worked as planned.

I'm not sure what to say. When it works, it works very well. But it intermittently loses connectivity after being on for a while. I've suspected the heat issue mentioned in one review, and this seems to confirm my suspicions. I can't live with the intermittency because it's used in a professional environment.

Pricier than some other brand but worth it! Moved my Bell Fibe recorder to the basement with 40 feet of Cat6 through the house. After 1 month usage no noticable handshake delay (

I had a problem, the unit didn't seem to be working. I talked to tech and he had me look at a couple of things. After trying a different cat5 cable it worked fine. Found the cable I had was hooked to old standards, after changing them everything works fine. The next day the tech called back to help me with the problem. I told him what I found and thanked him for the call back. This company is right there help, not always do you find this kind of help.I'm using this unit using about 150 foot of cat5e cable and it works great..

My tech guys say it works perfectly and solves the distance problem when sending signals to long range projectors. Worth the money! Great customer support as well, they go above and beyond!
