OREI 4K 1x4 HDMI Extender Splitter Over CAT6/7 Ethernet Cable Up to 4K@30Hz upto 165 ft-1080P@60Hz upto 230 ft, IR control, EDID, HDMI Loop Out (HD14-EX165-K)

This was purchased for my church. We use this to send video announcements to remote tvs in the lobby of the church. Easy to install and setup. If you are using self terminated LAN cables, they must be built correctly. These units use POE and a poorly terminated LAN cable will cause the remote unit not to work. No power connections are needed at the remote side. Our LAN runs are between 75’ and 100’. Picture quality is very good. Make sure the transmitter unit has good ventilation. I had it in a rack on top of another unit and I think it was over heating. I moved the transmitter unit and that solved the problem of glitches on the TV. Would definitely recommend this product as a good HDMI extender. OREI makes a lot of good products and their instructional videos are great.

This HDMI extender splitter does exactly what it promises. 4K signals come through clearly over CAT6 cables, and the IR control works well. Setup was straightforward, and the loop-out feature is convenient for connecting multiple displays. Solid build quality and reliable performance.

Bought this a year and half ago and it is working great. Would buy again.

Excellent, it just works, no issues.

We’ve been using this device in the church for nearly a year. I installed with Cat5e cable because it’s what I had on hand. The device has worked nearly flawlessly. The only real issue that we have is that occasionally on a Sunday morning, we have to power the device off and then right back on to get out to work. After that, it works perfectly.

easy to install

This item works as expected, but its claims of getting/displaying 1920x1080, 60hz, is false. The main splitter and the mini splitters BOTH sends an active signal of 1280 x 720, 60hz. I took 3 pictures. WIth 2 different HDMI cables, one 3ft and the other cable was 6 ft. Its only when I used the cable from my laptop to my monitor, did it show 1920x1080, 60hz, which meant that the cords weren't the issue. Edit: That was my previous review, as I was upset with the claims that I thought was false. The truth of the matter is that its ALL ABOUT THE EDID PRESETS. I think so many customers get upset due to the fact that don't read the manual and take the time to go through the EDID presets to see exactly what monitor/tv is best suited for the device that's connected to it. I am one to say I was previously wrong in my judgement. If you want a CLEAR IMAGE along with making sure you dont get the HDMI SIGNAL LOST message, take the time to go through your EDID presets that's listed in the manual. THANK ME LATER

Great product works great with a wired installation

The Orei 1x4 HDMI Extender Splitter is a great choice for distributing HDMI signals over long distances using CAT6/7 cables (up to 165 ft). It supports 1080P resolution with low latency, making it ideal for home entertainment, retail, and business setups. IR remote pass-through allows easy control of the source from any receiver. EDID management ensures compatibility with different displays, while the loop-out feature enables local monitoring. The plug-and-play design makes setup simple. Strong build quality prevents overheating and ensures durability. However, it lacks 4K support and requires high-quality cables for best performance. Despite this, it delivers reliable multi-display HDMI distribution with minimal signal loss. Rating: Highly recommended for 1080P setups!

OREI 1x4 HDMI Extender Splitter Multiple Over Single Cable CAT6/7 1080P with IR Remote EDID Management Used this to mirror a hdmi source to a 2nd TV 25m away (3rd and 4th TV planned for the future). Note that this device is used to send ONE hdmi source to 4-5 TVs and does not switch between multiple hdmi sources. From the packaging to the feel and function, this extender set oozes quality with the amount of thought clearly put into providing you with everything you could possibly need, from rack mounting provisions to the ir receivers and transmitters that allow you to use your remote at the 2nd location. The hardest thing involving this unit is pulling the ethernet cables to where they need to go. How it works is pretty straightforward. 1. Connect the hdmi source to the 'hdmi in' port on the main unit. 2. Use cat 6 (or higher) ethernet cable to connect the main unit to the sub unit. 3. 'hdmi out' from the sub unit connects to your tv or amp. The main unit is powered via included AC adapter (100-240v to [email protected]) while the sub units are powered via PoE using the same cat 6+ cable that carries the video signal so it's very portable and there's that much less clutter with no need for additional power cables. If you want your hdmi source's remote control to work at the remote location(s), connect the ir receivers (4 provided) to the sub units and the single provided ir blaster (transmitter) to the main unit. The receiver picks up the ir signal from your remote and sends it to the ir transmitter via cat6 cable. I've positioned the blaster about 8cm from my stb and have no issues with the range of the rx at 5m. The EDID switches on the main unit can be used to set the video output resolution. I set mine to 1080p/2ch audio but the unit has seetings ranging from 720p@60Hz to 4K@30Hz. There are 3D options for 1080p. Audio options include 2ch, hd audio and dolby/dts 5.1. HDMI/HDCP compliance is v1.4. Something not clearly indicated in the manual is that you can use the 'hdmi loop out' connector on the main unit to connect directly to your primary tv via hdmi cable, assuming it's adjacent to the main unit. so theoretically that means this 4 ethernet port unit can actually supply video to up to 5 tvs (4 network + 1 hdmi loop out). The manual indicates that the max distance for each cat6 cable run is 40m for 4k@30Hz video and 70m for 1080p@60Hz. My run involved 25m of standard 24 awg cat6 cable and a couple cat6 keystone jacks and I had no issues indicating the need for cat6e or cat7 cables. But if I wanted the 4k I might go with fancy cat7 and shielded cat7 keystone jacks. To summarize I'm very pleased with this unit and all that remains to be seen is how long it will last.

I am extremely impressed with the after-sales support provided by Fayz Electronics. Their team was prompt, professional, and went above and beyond to resolve my issue quickly and efficiently. The level of customer care and responsiveness truly sets them apart. The product itself is excellent, and with such great support, I highly recommend both the product and the seller to anyone considering a purchase. Exceptional service like this makes all the difference—highly satisfied!

Great quality

I'm not one for writing reviews much, only really bother when a product is quite outstanding. I've tried a few single HDMI over Ethernet Cable systems, none of which have been very impressive and mostly either work intermittently or are so poor your lucky to get away with 720P signal. THIS OREI unit however (at least the 4 way one I have) I can strongly recommend. 1) Couldn't be simpler to setup, really, my cat could have set it up in 5 minutes. 2) No power required at any of the satellite boxes (box at the TV/Monitor) as its POE, only 1 Power Adapter required (that comes in the kit naturally) that connects to the main unit. 3) I literally dragged 4 cables round the house to various TVs and Monitors to test it and it worked perfectly, firstly I had the output (from my Reolink NVR) set to 1080P as most of the TVs/Monitors I was using for testing are only HD, not 4K. Everything working great, so I tried setting the NVR to 4K output, expecting only the TV directly connected to the OREI passthrough to work as its the only 4K on the circuit at that time, well, to my surprise all the other connected TVs/Monitors still worked, not sure if this magic box from ORIE senses each circuits max resolution or some other mystical forces were at work, but work it did. But to be far, the NVR is 4K, BUT its MAX frequency at any resolution is 30fps. I may test it later with higher frequencies but for my needs this is perfect. 4) The price, I am very impressed with the quality of this system at this price, I've seen other 4 way systems of much poorer quality with very bad reviews at double or the price of this one. So, All in All, if you want to share an HDMI signal around your house (I've tested it to 50m, but I Imagin it will be fine at double that or more) this is the solution. I even tested it using a very old 30 meter CAT6 cable that I know is rotten (it has insulation damage and had water ingress) and the picture was still perfect.
