HDMI over IP Extender SpeaKa Professional SP-HDE-301 150m via RJ45

SpeaKa Professional SP-HDE-301 is an HDMI over IP extender that transmits high-definition HDMI signals up to 150 meters over standard RJ45 network cabling. Designed for distributing audio and video across IP networks, this device enables connection of source devices to remote displays using existing Ethernet infrastructure. The unit is intended for applications where direct HDMI cabling is impractical, offering a practical solution for digital signage, conference rooms and classrooms without requiring specialised HDMI runs.

Advantages

The extender supports transmission up to 150 m over Cat5e/6 cabling using RJ45 connectors, reducing the need for long HDMI cables and lowering installation complexity. It integrates with IP networks to allow flexible placement of transmitters and receivers and is compatible with common HDMI source devices and displays. The compact design facilitates deployment in professional environments and helps maintain signal integrity over longer distances compared with direct HDMI runs where signal boosters would otherwise be required.

Suitable for

• Digital signage distribution in retail, hospitality and public spaces
• Conference rooms and meeting facilities requiring centralized source management
• Classrooms and lecture halls for remote display of presentations and video
• AV installations where structured cabling is already available

Key specifications

• Transmission medium: RJ45 over Cat5e/6 network cabling
• Maximum transmission distance: up to 150 meters
• Signal type: HDMI audio and video
• Deployment: transmitter and receiver units for IP network distribution
• Typical use: point-to-point or networked distribution of HDMI sources

How to use

Install the transmitter unit near the HDMI source and connect it to the display-side receiver via standard RJ45 cable routed through the network or directly. Connect HDMI source and display devices to the appropriate HDMI ports, then power the transmitter and receiver according to the manufacturer's instructions. Configure any necessary network settings or device pairing as required by the deployment scenario to ensure that the HDMI signal is correctly routed from source to display over the IP network.

Usage recommendations

Use quality Cat5e or Cat6 cabling and proper RJ45 terminations to maintain signal quality. For best results in complex networks, keep transmitter and receiver firmware up to date and follow structured cabling best practices, such as avoiding long runs near heavy electrical interference and using patch panels or switches rated for AV distribution when needed.
