Chapter 4: Cable
4. Cable
1. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of LAN cables, the type
of HDMI sources, and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid
LAN cables (usually bulk cable (100 ft. [300 m]) can transmit a lot longer sig-
nals than stranded LAN cables (usually in patch cord form). Shielded STP
cables are better suited than unshielded UTP cables. For long extension users,
choose solid core LAN cables.
2. We recommend using EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for LAN cables for
better performance.
3. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in
LAN cable, you can use shielded LAN cables to improve EMI problems, which
are worse in long transmissions.
