This is the box that sits next to your source – laptop, media player, PC – and pushes the 4K signal down one Cat cable to the receiver at the other end. Power travels in the same run, so the far end doesn't need its own supply.
Bi-directional RS-232 and IR mean you can control the source from the display side and vice versa. One mini stereo jack handles IR in both directions, one at a time.
Rack-mountable. Metal case. Long-reach mode switch for extended cable runs. Plug in your HDMI, connect the Cat cable, power it up
