3.2 WP-562/PT-562 HDMI Line Receiver
The Kramer Wall Plate WP-562 HDMI Line Receiver is a wall plate
module that receives an encoded signal over two CAT 5 cables transmitted
from the PT-561 or WP-561, decodes it, and converts it to an HDMI
output. The Kramer Pico TOOLS™ PT-562 HDMI Line Receiver is a
standalone device that performs the same functions as the WP-562. The
WP-562/PT-562 features:
• An HDMI output and a pair of RJ-45 CAT 5 input connectors
• One power status LED
• Bandwidth up to 1.65Gbps
• EDID PassThru that passes EDID signals from source to display
• A bidirectional IR input/output transmitting and receiving IR
commands over the CAT 5 cable

3.3 About the Power Connect™ Feature
The PT-561/PT-562 and WP-561/WP-562 have the Power Connect™
feature where the transmitter delivers power and the HDMI signal to the
receiver using the same CAT 5 cable.
3.4 Using Twisted Pair Cable
Kramer engineers have developed special twisted pair cables to best match
our digital twisted pair products; the Kramer: BC-DGKat524 (CAT 5 24
AWG), the Kramer: BC-DGKat623 (CAT 6 23 AWG cable), and the
Kramer: BC-DGKat7a23 (CAT 7a 23 AWG cable). These specially built
cables significantly outperform regular CAT 5/CAT 6/CAT 7a cables.
