zacharyx 0 Posted August 15, 2017 Morning guys, I have been using these to get HDMI signals into vaults ect where I can't get a normal hdmi cable to make the tight bends (the hdmi connector is to long to make the bend but un-terminated cat6 goes pretty easy) https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B004GX0DEA/ref=oh_aui_detailpage_o00_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1 During storms this weekend a customer called about one of his monitors going out and that the adapter felt warm to the touch. Has anyone else had a similar issue? Could it have been a power spike? Also is there anything else that you guys have used that may be a good replacement in the even I have more go out. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jeromephone 6 Posted August 15, 2017 I have always used a powered HDMI extender over cat5/6 some require 2 cat 6s but The range is greater and have had no problems with monitors up to 200 ft away. depending on brand they are not that much more. I just looked up one that went 164 feet was powered, used one cat 6, and is about 40.00 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
