I have an unexpected last moment question.

I need to send HDMI signal further than 20m (about 30m I think).

BUT, I'm afraid because I cannot test before buying. And I have to buy this very very soon. So, does someone have any experiences with Mac Pro doing this ?

As far as I know, SDI link can be very long distance until 100 meters (I need only 30 / 35m maximum)

I have a max patch popping out a texture 4x 2K to 4 video projectors, from a Mac Pro with 4 thunderbolt / HDMI / adapters.

Any experiences or help would be appreciated.

Hi there,

According to my knowledge and this link, I think SDI could be the solution.

For being more clear:

According to my knowle

mac-pro-w-4-hdmi-via-4-hdmisdi-links

why not an HDMI to Rj45 converter and use Cat6 or Cat 5 (ethernet?)?

The question would be the same as I still didn't use one or the other.

About reliability, and compatibility with Mac Pro popping out signals through Thunderbolt -> hdmi adapters ? Any experiences with one or the other solutions ?

Hi and thanks a lot for your answer.

Checking the prices of both solutions.

about the thunderbolt to hdmi i use a normal adaptor without problem but usually all signals pass trough a graphic mixer.
