The
G
e
f
enTV Wireless
f
or HDMI
60
G
Hz Extender is a wireless solution
f
or
e
xtendin
g
an
y
HDMI A
/
V sources to a remote HDMI-compliant displa
y
such as
s
atellite boxes, DVD pla
y
ers, and Blu-Ra
y
pla
y
ers. The Wireless
f
or HDMI 60
G
Hz operates best in open indoor spaces with minimum obstructions between
the
S
ender and Receiver units. Ran
g
e will be si
g
ni
fi
cantl
y
reduced otherwise.
How It Works
The
G
e
f
enTV Wireless
f
or HDMI
60
G
Hz Extender uses one
S
ender and one
R
eceiver unit. A short cable connects the HDMI input o
f
the
S
ender unit to the
H
DMI output o
f
an HDMI source. At the displa
y
side, a short cable connects the
H
DMI output o
f
the Receiver unit to the HDMI input o
f
the HDTV displa
y
. Power
is applied to the
S
ender and Receiver. There is a sli
g
ht pause while the
S
ender
and Receiver locate each other and be
g
in communicatin
g
. The HDMI si
g
nal
f
rom the HDMI source then travels to the HDMI displa
y
over 60
G
Hz radio waves
and a vibrant and crisp Hi
g
h De
fi
nition picture emer
g

y
.
Indicator li
g
hts on the
f
ront panels o
f
both units assist in troubleshootin

should
there be ob
j
ects in the path o
f
the radio waves or other problems to resolve.
Note on Multichannel Audio:
C
ompressed audio as well as analo
