INTRODUCTION 

The AV-GM04D3-S1 

HDMI Extender over Dual Cat.X with RS-232 & Bi-directional IR

 boosts up 

your  video/audio  transmission  distance  up  to  60m  (200ft)  in  HDTV  1080i  format,  40m  (130ft)  in 
HDTV 1080p format, and 20m (65ft) in HDTV 1080p with 36 bit color depth. With two cost effective 
LAN cable, users can readily extend HDTV sources from DVD players, Blu-ray Disc player, PS3, PC, 
and  any  other  kinds  of  sources  compliant  with  TMDS  to  distant  display  monitors  including 
HDMI/DVI  enabled  TV  sets  or  LCD  PC  monitors.  With  the  state-of-the-art  Silicon  Image  chipsets 
equipped, deep color video, DTS-HD or Dolby TrueHD audio, and HDCP supports and compatibility 
are all further insured. This flexibility makes HDCP compliant DVD players or PS3 transmit utmost 
high quality video and audio with a greater distance at the minimal cost, when integrating several 
components apart. In addition, AV-GM04D3-S1 is also equipped with bi-directional IR pass-through 
path. This bonus feature allows users to boost IR control distance up to 100m (330 ft) and makes IR 
control  possible  through  only  single  CAT-5  type  cable  including  HDMI  signals.  Furthermore, 
AV-GM04D3-S1  is equipped  with  a popular  serial control path  RS-232.  With  high  definition  digital 
signal  and  serial  control,  AV-GM04D3-S1  makes  your  digital  signage  application  with  the  upmost 
performance in pure digital domain. 

The  AV-GM04D3-S1  includes  two  units:  transmitting  (AV-GM04D3-S1-TX)  and  receiving 

(AV-GM04D3-S1-RX) units. The transmitting unit is used to capture the input HDMI/DVI signals with 
IR control packets and serial port, such as COM1 to carry the signals through one RJ45 connector 
into cost effective Cat-5/5e/6 cable. The receiving unit is responsible for equalizing the transmitted 
HDMI  signal,  reconstructing  IR  signals  and  receiving  serial  command.  The  transmission  distance 
between the sending and receiving units can be up to 60m (200ft) under HD (720p/1080i) or 40m 
(130ft) under Full HD (1080p). With an 8-level equalization rotary control on the receiving unit, users 
can  adjust  the  equalization  strength  to  the  received  HDMI  signals  accordingly,  and  therefore 
optimize the transmission distance between source and destination.
