What are the two ports TMDS and DDC? In which port does the Cat5 or Cat6 go? Is it necessary to use both ports if only video is needed?

TDMS=Transition Minimized Differential SignalingDDC=Display Data ChannelBoth are necessary to transmit HDMI with these adapters, so you must run two Cat 5e/6 cables from the source to destination.

make sure that the TMDS goes to the TMDS on both sides with one cable (doesn't matter if its cat6 our cat5e, just make sure they are the same kind of cable) and the DDC goes to the DDC on both sides. HDMI has embedded audio and all this thing does is transfers raw hdmi signal over cat cable, so there is no way to only use the video. You need to use both cables or it won't work. Hope that helps

Yes you need to use both ports, so you have to make sure that you have two cables and identify them to make sure you plug them in the right port, the DDC to DDC and TMDS to TMDS on the other end. You need both of them for video to work, I do not have the tecnical answer but have tried it. Works great if you use good cable and connectors I have managed over 30 meters or over 100 feet but that is about the limit for these non powered units. I have a network of 17 tv set up in our restarurants and I found these much beter and cheaper than the long HDMI ready made cables. Hope this helped.

Not directly. You will need cat 5 baluns on each end for video and a power adapter on each end and it will work.

Ethernet does not come into play. The Extenders do use two Cat 6 cables, so the confusion is understandable. There is no latency, no delays, and no degradation of the video quality.

Don't understand the question. CAT5 from my modem feeds port #1 on the router which drives all other ports on the router. But all ports are the same therefore you could feed modem to any and use any other port to the rest of you gear, computers, printers, et al. Don't believe these routers accept CAT6.

According to their specifications: Recording Mode Support manual, auto, dynamic detection (which means an object in motion), alarm trigger record mode(Partly needs IPC support).It is compatible with many brands of cameras including Dahua. My suggestion is hard wire it with cat 6 instead of using wi-fi. My suggestion is buy a Cisco 5 port desktop switch box to hook your cameras to. CDW Direct has them for 25.99. Hard wire everything to your router, that's the best way.

It has three "video in" ports. That seems to me like it is a standard connection.

You will still need to use a cat5 to connect your computer and another cat5 cable to connect your camera to the router for the initial setup. After that you will not need to connect via a cable.

So you plug the master power into your standard outlet and insert the cat 5e cable from that power source into your router. Then pretty much do the same for the camera, plug its power source into a standard outlet and plug in the ethernet cord to that and then the other end goes into the camera. Its power over the ethernet cable. Just besure to not use any extension cords or surge protectors, as it messes up tge transmission. The instructions state bothpower sources have a surge protector in them. Definitely a DIY job, nothing fancy, very straightforward. All the best! Its a great unit!!

C.Tortora, what wireless adapter did you get, if you don't mind me asking? I think the only option for the DMP-BD70V is an ethernet wireless adapter. Any recommendations?

Video: CAT5. Power is either from power over ethernet (POE) or separate DC supply (not included).

You should be able to plug it into any CAT5 plug. It shouldn't matter since it is on your LAN.

you can use a cat6 cable up to 750 and it will work also you need a Balun. converts from copper to BNC. the cat6 cable has 8 copper cable so it provides power video data.

you only need these if you are using a single cat5 or cat6 to run power/video/audio. if you are running a cat5 power hub, you are using only for power, then no need to run the wire all the way to the DVR, only one connector is needed at the camera location

Yes. 100Mb requires at least cat 5. Cat 6 is just better cable - capable of 1000Mb.
1587822
no this is a pass-through so you can run one cat 5 cable for 4 cameras and you will need to of the converters on each end. I have 4 cameras connected but two ports work fine and the other two have issues I wiggle the cables and it works again. its a nice option when you need to put your dvr in a remote location with limited access. Hope this helps ..

From what I saw on another page, from TP Link: Though the speed of the Ethernet port is limited to 100mbps, the data transmission and receiveing between the devices will be approximitaley 500mbps, given the integrity of the circuit. Someone else posted that essentially if you add more than 2 of these in your house, the combined bandwidth could be up to 500mb. In my case, I had a near-wifi dead zone (1 bar, Amazon prime wouldn't stream), and after adding this, and a wifi router I turned into an AP, I can now stream Amazon prime without any issues, via ethernet to my roku, and wifi on my other devices gets MUCH better signal. In short, if you only plan to get 2 of these, you shouldn't need the 500mb ones. If you plan to setup 3+ over your house, and you have a gigabit router already, then go that route. I got these b/c at the time, they were the same price as the 200mb ones. Good luck w/ your purchase!

To be clear, I have not installed the port injector yet. However, the port injector will be cabled (with cat 5e or cat6 cabling) between your network switch and your IP cams.
