Wireless HDMI? Yes please! 4K support? Wow!
The tech is finally here to send Ultra HD (3840 x 2160) HDMI signals wirelessly across the room - or even through walls! It's like magic! There's a claimed supported transmission distance of up to 50m (line of sight), but keep in mind that this is a theoretical maximum. We've found in testing the best results are in the 10-25m range line-of-sight, and 5-15m through walls depending on their construction etc. Of course the installation environment and type of wall construction will play a large role in final transmission distances and streaming quality, but if you need to transmit a HDMI signal without cables, this is definitely the way to go! The connected wireless display acts just like a second connected display with Duplicated or Extended Desktop support on relevant systems. Furthermore, the wireless receiver offers cabled HDMI and VGA connection to one or two screens at the receiver end.
Important Note About Wireless HDMi Transmission
Straight up, we need to make clear that ANY wireless HDMI signal transmission we have seen will be inferior to a conventional cabled connection. To send a signal wirelessly the HDMI signal is compressed, and there is noticeable lag present as the signal is processed. So depending on the final set up environment (distances, obstructions etc), you may notice varying degrees of image compression, occasional jutter and some lag from the source display. For this reason, we do not recommend any wireless HDMI sender/receiver product for gaming, or applications which require low-lag displays.
Perfect for Digital Signage, Presentations, boardrooms and Remote Displays
This digital dual-mode 2.4GHz/5GHz Wireless HDMI Sender & Receiver provides wireless digital transmission of HDMI audio & video signals including 1080p/60Hz and even 4K/30Hz. You'll be able to send the HDMI signal over longer distances than we've seen from products in the past. Just keep in mind that wireless HDMI senders use compression to handle the signal transmission, and so they will never be a replacement for a cabled connection from a image quality stand-point, even if wireless HDMI technologies have come a long way in the past 5 or so years.
Operating distances through walls and solid objects is possible, with an expected range of 5-10m, depending on the number of obstacles and materials involved. And for larger rooms where a line-of-sight connection is possible, you'll be able to enjoy long transmission distances of 20m or 30m+. Just keep in mind that some other wireless devices can play a role in your set up (including 2.4GHz cordless telephones, and in some cases Wi-Fi networks).
Wireless HDMI at 4K in a snap!
Setup is a cinch, as you simply need to connect the Sender unit to your source HDMI device, and connect the Wireless Receiver unit to your display (via HDMI or VGA). Finally, there's an included USB cable for supplying power to the Receiver unit. From there, just a press of a button on the Sender unit is all that's needed for a direct connection.
If you want to dive in a little deeper, there's also Android Smart-Screen/Smart-View/Wireless Display, and Apple AirPlay screen mirroring connectivity options too! :-)
Please note that we have had feedback from customers that this device may have compatibility issues with Foxtel set top boxes.

Question:
Is it possible to have 1 sender and 2 receivers? or is it possible to use the pass through of one unit to go in to a transmitter of a second unit. If you do that, is there a delay? Thinking of this for a digital signage application to 2+ TV's?
Answer:
"Yes, it is possible to have multiple receivers, but unfortunately they are not available to us separately. You could definitely daisy-chain multiple units as well, but there could be some delay due to the nature of wireless HDMI. We haven't tested this, but we expect it would be less than a second offset."
