I am running this behind the wall 40ft to a computer moniter. Will I require any kind of signal booster?

Dear Customer,Thanks for your message. Please note that an HDMI repeater is only required in below than 1% of the cases for KabelDirekt HDMI cables. An HDMI repeater is required in special cases if the output HDMI signal is not strong enough. Please refer to our product description for further information.with best regardsFelix Idel - Amazonshop KabelDirekt - service@kabeldirekt-shop.de

I know you can purchase signal boosters that are compatible with this brand of HDMI. From my experience i did not need one, the image did not lose clarity or seem to have color issue. I ran from cable source to a prejector with no issue. Hope this helps, good luck.

digital cables are typically either work or not. These cables are standard and not fancy.. you will only know if it works when you try them you'll get digital noise if the distance is too far. There are things you can use to boost up signal but I'd just try the cable first to see if it works. I've used it between several devices so you shouldn't have a problem but it is very close to it's realistic serviceable limit and don't plug and replug them. just plug them in as few times as possible.

My experience is that the distances are stated very conservatively and you probably will not need a booster, but if you still needed more signal a booster would work.

Instructions state "must be plugged into wall receptacle". I guess the surge protector might reduce the signal?. My desktop and modem are upstairs.I'm using this to improve signal to a "smart" DVD player that is downstairs. Works as advertised.

I mounted the booster midline, adding a couple of coax fittings. I had a long run and signal was satisfactory at the beginning but faded after several splits. This boosted the signal for the rest of the run. You can add the booster just after the antenna as it would boost the existing signal. This unit does not look weatherproof. It would need to be near a power outlet and protected from the weather.

Just plug into the wall, but if you have any secuity set up on the router, it won't work. Use the disk for setup with security enabled router. No problem getting the connection running but didn't solve our bad signal problem at all.

They really serve two different purposes. If all of your equiptment is wi fi, the booster Should work. If you need to hard wire something in and not in same room as router, this is the answer.

Look for a wireless booster for your signal, if you can string up a LAN cable it's much better and faster. Cheers

I'm not sure about the PS4 specifically. I've not tried running a gaming system through our extenders, but I've run several other video feeds. Depending upon the length of your run, the non-powered extender might not have a strong enough signal - that could be your problem. I'm running two of these between 75-110 feet and have not noticed any signal loss (using PC or DVD video feeds).

Yes there is an inline booster that came with it, so assume it is required. Next to tv set

As long as you don't exceed the 12 amp rating between the receiver and signal booster combined. I would install after the signal booster or to the receiver only.

I agree, it depends on your setup. I had to buy one more cable along with a new root splitter with wider frequency range and POE filters to isolate the signal to only where I wanted it to go

Yeah I agree with Danny, but with some creative engineering you can still boost the signal distance. The only way to boost the signal of something like this would be to utilize the interrupt pin and have it trigger from a read on the external antenna, Which would actually be pretty interesting to code and build. Hope this helps!

You'll need to have a really strong feeder signal from your router. It says 70%, but you're going to need more like 85%

No.. be careful with the cable, as it also contains the signal lead for the directional control box, this is just my suggestion only.

it should this cable has a booster on it and I haven't noticed any drop in signal so far, good luck

Effectively this question has already been answered in prior Q&A. It's good to read ALL the comments. Bottom line, as long as you are not drawing power via the cable.. only using for signal, you should be fine.
