These HDMI over Network / IP Extenders has been tested with the Network over Powerline adapters as atTenda 200Mbit/s Network over PowerlineandTenda 1Gbit/s Network over Powerline adapters. Using the HDMI over Network products in this type of setup together with the Network over Powerline adapters will effectively create an HDMI over Powerline solution. One Player / PC / Source can transmit via the Network over Powerline adapters to multiple displays / HDTV’s instead of using traditional network switches and installing CAT6 Networking cable to enable these extenders to function across existing 220v electrical power cables. This type of solution has been tested up to 70 meter over existing home / business power cables. Longer distances is possible but will be dependant on your home power cables quality and wiring at the DBBoard. If a UPS is used inbetween transmitter and receiver this solution will not work as the signal can only pass through electrical DBBoard and breakers and not via a UPS.
