IOGEAR's HDMI Over Powerline PRO Receiver is an extension or add-on to the HDMI Over Powerline PRO Kit (GPLHDPROK). Using this kit, transmit high-definition video and audio at astonishing distances up to 984ft over your home and Small Office Home Office's (SOHO) existing power outlets without having to incur the expense of rewiring. Enjoy content from your Blu-ray, set-top box or PC at resolutions up to 1080p.
This product requires an electrical power environment where the electrical wiring is on the same power phase (100~240V AC grid) and should not be connected through an extension cord, power strip or surge protector. For optimal performance, plug directly into a wall socket and to the same unbroken circuit.
Powerline is an incredibly simple and straightforward means to set up devices that uses your environment's power cables instead of Ethernet, saving you on the hassles of running wires between rooms and the cost of professional A/V installation. This technology offers an alternative means of transmitting high-definition video and audio, installs easily and provides a reliable form of data transmission at ultra-long distances. Powerline technology takes advantage of the electrical wiring that already exists within your home or office to transmit data from one power outlet to another.
Transmitter and receiver(s) must be connected to the same unbroken circuit. It is highly recommended to plug all units directly into a wall outlet without extension cords, power strips, surge protectors or uninterruptible power supplies. Connection issues may arise if GPLHDPROK is connected to an electrical circuit with a Ground Fault Circuit Interrupter (GFCI) or Arc Fault Circuit Interrupter (AFCI) and if electrical outlet is located near to an appliance with high power consumption such as a washer or dryer.
Up to 3 additional receivers (4 total receivers) can be connected to each HDMI Over Powerline PRO Kit to distribute HD video to multiple displays. The kit is plug-and-play so setup is as simple as connecting your source device and display(s) and powering on the Powerline transmitter and receivers.
IOGEAR's HDMI Over Powerline PRO Kit is ideal for use in home entertainment and SOHO environments, particularly in dead spots where Wi-Fi connectivity is an issue. Watch your favorite movie or TV show in one room and continue watching it in another room or transmit to multiple TVs around your office when having a presentation. Other applications include: when HDMI signals need to travel longer distances or need to be sent from one room to another through walls and doors. This is an easy, affordable and reliable solution for any place that requires a multi-display installation.
The included IR Extension Cable and IR Blast Cable allow you to control your source device remotely. Use your source device's remote control at any of the receivers to control your media source from any area of your home or office.
