The longer the cable, the higher the signal or voltage losses - even if you use the best HDMI cables. Transmission problems which prevent the handshake between source and receiver or interfere with the HDCP query may often already occur at a cable length of only 10 meters. Problems are often attributed to the cable, although insufficient signaling is more frequently caused by the devices themselves, mechanical issues or simply by faulty firmware.

Active and passive repeaters or extenders will not only allow you to extend the transmission distances up to 100 m - even in those cases when interferences already occur over distances of only 10 meters - both maximum bandwidth and brilliant signal strength are also guaranteed thanks to this affordable technology.
