Best way to broadcast HD image in a long distance

aznricey · 13th January 2012

This is for a church setting, I have a high definition camcorder and would like to have it hooked up to a TV which is located at the opposite side of the building. Rather then a very long HDMI cable, is there an alternative way to broadcast what was recorded/broadcasting live view to the TV located far away?

Thank you in advance

If you are not too worried about an occasional frame dropping here and there, as well as having a slight delay to the picture, the cheapest way would probably be to go with a wireless hdmi transmitter/receiver. They generally work well for distances up to 30m/100ft if there are no major obstructions (e.g. stone walls) between transmitter/receiver. (Some models also have ethernet ports, so you could use a cat6-cable if the distance is longer).
Amazon should have a couple of models in the $100-250 price range.

Try this:
For only $80.56 each when QTY 50+ purchased - 1x2 HDMI

look up a Gefen HDMI extender using cat5. I use several of these for all my video runs in the studio and keep one on hand for the occasional long video run. they work great.
