1x4 HDMI Extender Splitter Multiple Over Single Cable CAT6/7 1080P with IR Remote EDID Management - Up to 165 Ft - Loop Out - Low Latency - Full Support

OREI 1x4 HDMI Extender Splitter Multiple Over Single Cable CAT6/7 1080P with IR Remote EDID Management Used this to mirror a hdmi source to a 2nd TV 25m away (3rd and 4th TV planned for the future). Note that this device is used to send ONE hdmi source to 4-5 TVs and does not switch between multiple hdmi sources. From the packaging to the feel and function, this extender set oozes quality with the amount of thought clearly put into providing you with everything you could possibly need, from rack mounting provisions to the ir receivers and transmitters that allow you to use your remote at the 2nd location. The hardest thing involving this unit is pulling the ethernet cables to where they need to go. How it works is pretty straightforward. 1. Connect the hdmi source to the 'hdmi in' port on the main unit. 2. Use cat 6 (or higher) ethernet cable to connect the main unit to the sub unit. 3. 'hdmi out' from the sub unit connects to your tv or amp. The main unit is powered via included AC adapter (100-240v to [email protected]) while the sub units are powered via PoE using the same cat 6+ cable that carries the video signal so it's very portable and there's that much less clutter with no need for additional power cables. If you want your hdmi source's remote control to work at the remote location(s), connect the ir receivers (4 provided) to the sub units and the single provided ir blaster (transmitter) to the main unit. The receiver picks up the ir signal from your remote and sends it to the ir transmitter via cat6 cable. I've positioned the blaster about 8cm from my stb and have no issues with the range of the rx at 5m. The EDID switches on the main unit can be used to set the video output resolution. I set mine to 1080p/2ch audio but the unit has seetings ranging from 720p@60Hz to 4K@30Hz. There are 3D options for 1080p. Audio options include 2ch, hd audio and dolby/dts 5.1. HDMI/HDCP compliance is v1.4. Something not clearly indicated in the manual is that you can use the 'hdmi loop out' connector on the main unit to connect directly to your primary tv via hdmi cable, assuming it's adjacent to the main unit. so theoretically that means this 4 ethernet port unit can actually supply video to up to 5 tvs (4 network + 1 hdmi loop out). The manual indicates that the max distance for each cat6 cable run is 40m for 4k@30Hz video and 70m for 1080p@60Hz. My run involved 25m of standard 24 awg cat6 cable and a couple cat6 keystone jacks and I had no issues indicating the need for cat6e or cat7 cables. But if I wanted the 4k I might go with fancy cat7 and shielded cat7 keystone jacks. To summarize I'm very pleased with this unit and all that remains to be seen is how long it will last.

Product worked great, connected TV upto 50m quality was great. Easy to use just plug and play

Works exactly as described without any issues and really simple to install. Excellent

This product is excellent very easy to setup and works perfectly without any interruptions video and audio signals are amazing not a single drop or delay we love it all our events are going smoothly with multiple screens we can connect 5 screens and a laptop at once amazing

The Orei 1x4 HDMI Extender Splitter is a great choice for distributing HDMI signals over long distances using CAT6/7 cables (up to 165 ft). It supports 1080P resolution with low latency, making it ideal for home entertainment, retail, and business setups. IR remote pass-through allows easy control of the source from any receiver. EDID management ensures compatibility with different displays, while the loop-out feature enables local monitoring. The plug-and-play design makes setup simple. Strong build quality prevents overheating and ensures durability. However, it lacks 4K support and requires high-quality cables for best performance. Despite this, it delivers reliable multi-display HDMI distribution with minimal signal loss. Rating: Highly recommended for 1080P setups!

Great quality

I'm not one for writing reviews much, only really bother when a product is quite outstanding. I've tried a few single HDMI over Ethernet Cable systems, none of which have been very impressive and mostly either work intermittently or are so poor your lucky to get away with 720P signal. THIS OREI unit however (at least the 4 way one I have) I can strongly recommend. 1) Couldn't be simpler to setup, really, my cat could have set it up in 5 minutes. 2) No power required at any of the satellite boxes (box at the TV/Monitor) as its POE, only 1 Power Adapter required (that comes in the kit naturally) that connects to the main unit. 3) I literally dragged 4 cables round the house to various TVs and Monitors to test it and it worked perfectly, firstly I had the output (from my Reolink NVR) set to 1080P as most of the TVs/Monitors I was using for testing are only HD, not 4K. Everything working great, so I tried setting the NVR to 4K output, expecting only the TV directly connected to the OREI passthrough to work as its the only 4K on the circuit at that time, well, to my surprise all the other connected TVs/Monitors still worked, not sure if this magic box from ORIE senses each circuits max resolution or some other mystical forces were at work, but work it did. But to be far, the NVR is 4K, BUT its MAX frequency at any resolution is 30fps. I may test it later with higher frequencies but for my needs this is perfect. 4) The price, I am very impressed with the quality of this system at this price, I've seen other 4 way systems of much poorer quality with very bad reviews at double or the price of this one. So, All in All, if you want to share an HDMI signal around your house (I've tested it to 50m, but I Imagin it will be fine at double that or more) this is the solution. I even tested it using a very old 30 meter CAT6 cable that I know is rotten (it has insulation damage and had water ingress) and the picture was still perfect.

Very good product
