Gefen’s New HDMI Super Booster Plus Fixes DDC And HDMI Signal Degradation Long Distances

August 8, 2007

HDMI audio and video can only be extended so far. When extended beyond several meters using copper-based cable, the signal can drop precariously, defeating the purpose of digital high definition video as the image can suffer. Gefen’s HDMI Super Boosters have always corrected this damage up to 150 feet but its new HDMI Super Booster Plus promises even greater performance. First, it corrects DDC signals in addition to HDMI signal quality over long lengths of cabling. Second, it extends the HDMI signal up to 200 feet in distance, a 50-foot improvement that can really make a difference in the field. Another “plus” is its method of operation. Like all of Gefen’s boosters, this one is simple to install. It’s not a sender/receiver system but a little box that sits between the end of your cable and the extended display. It passes DDC and HDMI signals through to the display after restoring any signal losses and comes with an external power supply to drive and guarantee its performance. The HDMI Super Booster Plus from Gefen is a valuable addition to any installers toolkit, and for those wanting to extender their HDMI display or projector easily, economically and with quality results.
