## Summary description

ATEN VE1812 is a wired AV extender kit comprising a transmitter and receiver that supports up to 4096×2160 resolution over Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6a cabling. Each unit operates at 5 V with low power consumption (transmitter max 4.3 W). The compact, black enclosures (123×140.4×30 mm) make it suitable for extending HDMI/AV signals for digital signage, conference rooms and AV installations.

## Long description

The ATEN VE1812 AV extender kit includes a transmitter (VE1812T) and receiver (VE1812R) designed to extend HDMI signals over a single Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6a cable with support for up to 4096×2160 (4K) resolution. Both units are compact black enclosures (123×140.4×30 mm) and operate at 5 V with low power consumption; the transmitter consumes up to 4.3 W. The extender uses HDBaseT technology with Power over HDBaseT (PoH) to supply power from the transmitter to the receiver over the same cable, and it is HDMI/HDCP compatible with support for 3D and Deep Color.
Advantages
The VE1812 provides long-distance HDMI extension without the need for multiple cables or local power at the display end, simplifying installation and reducing cabling costs. It supports RS-232 and bi-directional IR pass-through for remote control of source and display devices, and offers a Long Reach Mode to increase range for 1080p signals. Compatibility with Cat6a or good-quality Cat6 cabling allows reliable 4K transmission up to 100 meters and 1080p up to 150 meters when Long Reach is enabled.
Suitable for
Digital signage installations in retail, hospitality or public spaces
Conference and meeting rooms requiring centralised AV source placement
Classrooms and lecture halls where displays are distant from sources
Corporate AV systems and boardrooms with centralised media players
Home or commercial AV setups needing long HDMI runs with remote control

How to use
Install the VE1812 transmitter near the HDMI source device and connect its HDMI output to the source. Connect a single Cat5e/Cat6/Cat6a cable between the transmitter and receiver units. Place the receiver at the display end and connect its HDMI output to the display. If PoH is required, power the transmitter so it supplies power to the receiver over the Cat cable; alternatively, use local power as needed. Configure any required RS-232 or IR control connections to enable remote control of source or display devices. Select Long Reach Mode when extending 1080p content over greater distances, and ensure cable quality and routing minimise interference.
Usage recommendations
Use high-quality Cat6a or shielded Cat6 cable for optimal 4K performance and stable signal over longer distances. Keep Cat cabling away from sources of electromagnetic interference (large power cables, fluorescent lighting, motors) and use proper termination and connectors. Verify compatibility of displays and source devices with HDCP and 4K timing, and test RS-232/IR control paths during installation to confirm end-to-end control functionality.
