HDMI Extenders over Cat5e/6 for CCTV Monitor Runs
10 products in our Accessories range — trade-grade UK stock from CCTV Line.
HDMI Extenders
HDMI extenders carry a video (and often audio) signal beyond the length a standard HDMI cable can reliably support, typically over Cat5e/Cat6 cable, coax, or fibre depending on the model. In a CCTV installation they're commonly used to run a monitor or display well away from a DVR/NVR or matrix switcher, such as a control room, reception desk, or gatehouse.
How to choose
- Transmission medium — Cat5e/Cat6 IP-style extenders vs coax-based units; pick to match cable already run or planned for the job.
- Distance required — check the rated maximum run for the specific extender against your cable route.
- Resolution support — confirm the extender supports the resolution output by your recorder or matrix (e.g. 1080p, 4K where stated).
- Power arrangement — some extenders need local power at transmitter and/or receiver ends; check both.
- Single-link vs one-to-many — some jobs need one source to multiple displays rather than a simple point-to-point run.
This range covers 10 HDMI extender products, giving installers options across different cable types, distances and power arrangements to suit the site.
