Frequently Asked Questions - VE883AR ATEN
How do I connect the ATEN VE883AR to my TV and source?
Connect your video source (e.g., Blu-ray player) to the HDMI input on the transmitter unit. Then run a Cat6 cable from the transmitter's RJ-45 port to the receiver's RJ-45 port. Finally, connect the receiver's HDMI output to your TV. Power both units using the included DC adapters.
What is the maximum transmission distance?
The VE883AR can transmit signals over a single Cat6 cable up to 100 meters at 4K resolution. For 1080p, it can reach even longer distances when using high-quality cabling.
Does it support 4K and HDR?
Yes, this extender supports 4K UHD (3840 x 2160) at 60 Hz with HDCP 2.2, and it is compatible with HDR10 content, preserving vibrant colors and contrast.
How can I control my source device remotely?
The extender supports IR pass-through. Connect the included IR emitter to the receiver unit and point the IR receiver at your remote control. This allows you to send control signals from the remote back to the source device over the same Cat cable.
Does it need two cables for audio and video?
No, the VE883AR sends video and audio together over a single Cat5e/6/7 cable. It also supports serial control signals (RS-232) for advanced system integration.
Can I use it with a laptop that only has USB-C output?
If your laptop outputs HDMI over USB-C, you can use a USB-C to HDMI adapter to connect to the transmitter. The extender itself does not convert USB-C signals directly.
How do I power the units?
Each unit (transmitter and receiver) requires a 5V DC power adapter with a minimum current of 2A. Use only the adapters provided by ATEN to avoid damage.
Can I mount the extenders on a wall?
Yes, the VE883AR has mounting holes on its metal enclosure. You can use the included mounting brackets to attach them securely to a wall or under a desk.
What should I do if there is no signal at the receiver?
First, verify that all HDMI and Cat cable connections are secure. Check the LED indicators on both units: the power LED should be lit, and the link LED should turn green. If the link LED is off, try a shorter or higher-quality Cat6 cable. Also, ensure the source is set to output a compatible resolution.
How do I clean and maintain the unit?
Use a soft, dry cloth to wipe the metal casing. Do not use liquids or abrasive cleaners. Keep the ventilation slots free of dust and ensure the unit is operated in a well-ventilated area. There are no user-serviceable parts inside; contact ATEN support if service is needed.
