HDMI Extender for Long Runs

The Monoprice Blackbird 116048 sends 1080p video up to 100 metres over a single Cat6 cable. It delivers 6.75Gbps bandwidth with 12-bit Deep Color and 48kHz LPCM audio. The bidirectional IR blaster lets you control source or display from either end. It suits installers who need reliable signal extension without fibre.

Passive Cooling and Low Power Draw

The extender units run without fans, so they add no audible noise to the room. Power consumption stays modest during normal 1080p transmission at 328 feet. HDCP 1.1 compliance ensures protected content passes through without handshake issues. The compact enclosures fit discreetly behind equipment or inside wall cavities.

Single-Cable Integration

Each end needs only one Cat6 run, freeing conduit space and reducing termination points. The transmitter and receiver pair draw power from included adapters, so no PoE switch is required. IR control works over the same link, eliminating separate control wiring. Buyers who need 4K resolution or longer distances will need a different solution.

Questions about this item

How do I connect the transmitter and receiver units using a single Cat6 cable and where do the IR blaster cables plug in?

Connect the HDMI source to the transmitter, the display to the receiver, then run one Cat6 cable between the two units; plug the IR emitter into the transmitter and the IR receiver into the receiver for bidirectional remote control.

Will the IR emitter or receiver cables degrade over time and need replacement?

The IR emitter and receiver are passive cables with no moving parts; they typically last the life of the extender unless physically damaged, so no scheduled replacement is required.

At the full 100 metre distance, will the 6.75 Gbps bandwidth limit cause signal drop-outs on 1080p content?

The 6.75 Gbps bandwidth matches the maximum 1080p Deep Color data rate, so the link runs at its limit; any cable quality loss or interference at 100 metres can cause drop-outs before the extender itself fails.
