Making Your HDMI Cable Longer

By Troy Vanhughes


Due to the wonders of HDMI technology, audio and video signals can run from its original source through the same HDMI cable lines. This is great news for users, because they won't deal with the hassle of hooking of different cable lines. However, many people find that the singular cable line can run too short.

One easy solution is an HDMI extender. This device helps extend HDMI signals over much longer distances. In some cases this can be as far as around 50m. In order for the device to work, the user will need DVI and HDMI cables. Fortunately, HDMI extenders don't need to have a power source in order to function. This also saves on power costs, since some heavy duty extenders for other technologies might require additional power.

Using these sort of cables with the extender resolves the problem of the lack of space that many users find they deal with. However, they'll need to have the right sort of cables on hand, in order to ensure everything can be hooked up properly. Many people hook up various components such as a television, a cable box, a computer, etc. Without the right sort of cable extender, then a user can't watch videos o their computer or on their television.

You'll find that when you use longer cables, you can move your television wherever you'd like to in your room. Just get 40 or more meters of cable, and you can even set up your T.V. in another room. You'll also find that many computers provide HDMI hookups, so that you can watch videos. Many people prefer to watch videos on their computers, because computers provide watchers streaming video websites, video downloads, etc.

You'll find that HDMI cables aren't hard to set up; They're actually easy to hook up. The cable slot on both sides are easy to recognize, regarding the television and the source sides. Not to mention that one cord keeps you from tripping over many different cables. Those with HD televisions will be pleased to learn that this sort of cable technology is equipped for HD. As a matter of fact, HDMI offers more pixel resolution that other comparable market mediums.

The versatility of HDMI cables also extends to mobile markets with the right converter tools. For example, an HDMI cable that had a micro-HDMI converter could connect a mobile phone with the right hookup to your television. This means that you could watch streaming videos from your phone directly on a television. And with the right extender device and a long enough cable you could do so from a different room.

You'll need to have the correct type of HDMI extender for televisions such as an HD 1080p. Otherwise, the quality of your feedback will suffer a bit. Make sure that your extender's specs match up with the specs for your particular television, in order for it to function as it should.
