HDMI via Ethernet wall socket (alien.top)

Hi,

I'm looking into extending an HDMI input to a different room using HDMI extenders via Ethernet. Unfortunately it is going to be too hard to use a new cable from room to room. Can I plug them in via ethernet via the wall sockets and extend them like that?

If you have 2 runs you can do passive hdmi over ethernet. Probably not great for the higer bandwidth signals as well.

If your allready transcoding just go for the extenders that use IP and can go through a switch.
