Abstract
Techniques are provided for communications between high-definition multimedia interface (HDMI) devices. The techniques describe a system comprising a first or transmitter adapter device that is electrically connected to a source HDMI device. The first adapter device is configured to receive one or more source HDMI signals from the source device across a first HDMI link and to convert the source HDMI signals to corresponding one or more 10GBase-T data signals configured to be transmitted across a data link. A second or receiver adapter device electrically connected to the first adapter device across the data link. The second adapter device is configured to receive the 10GBase-T data signals from the first adapter device across the data link, convert the 10GBase-T data signals to corresponding one or more destination HDMI signals and send the destination HDMI signals to a destination HDMI device electrically connected to the second adapter device.
