Category Cable
For the category cables used in the installation of these products, please be sure to use a 568B
termination as pictured below:
Connector type and size is very important to ensure extenders work correctly. Please match the
cable type with the correct RJ45 connector.
CAT5e and CAT 6 cables should use only CAT5e RJ45 connectors
CAT6a cables should use only CAT6a connectors
CAT7 cables should use only CAT7 connectors
Using the wrong size of connectors may result in interference or loss of signal.
Important! “EZ RJ45 connectors” are not recommended with HDBaseT extenders. Doing so may result in interference
with audio and video transmission.
Use the table below to verify the best category cable for the installation.
Important! 4K (UHD) signals are sensitive to cable quality and installation technique. It is recommended to
use CAT6a/7 solid core cables for best results.
