Introduction
The HDSpider ™ HDMI 1.3 over Single Cat.5 Distribution Series provides the most
flexible solution by which the uncompressed, unmodified, and pure digital HDMI
signals with 7.1-channel audio can be transmitted to different locations over a long
distance. The cascadability of HDSpider™ series is virtually unlimited, allowing you
to extend HDMI/DVI displays almost anywhere.
The whole HDSpider ™ series products can be easily inter-connected to suit almost every
application through Cat.5/5e/6 cables. By taking the advantage of Cat.5/5e/6 cables,
installation work becomes so easy and particularly cost effective wherever the distribution of
HDMI signals is required.
