Portta PET50E Report


Portta PET50E Review by Jon E. Mooney

I've had this item for nearly two months, and it has been working great. I have an outdoor TV (Samsung Plasma) with cat5e/coax running between it and my media closet - roughly 40ft. My directv satellite receiver is located in the closet, so I needed this balun (i.e. extender) to get the hdmi signal to the TV via the cat5e cable. It was easy to install and worked immediately. I've watched a ton of football this Fall on my patio, and I haven't see any degradation with the picture quality at all. For the price, I'm extremely pleased with this product and would definitely recommend it.


Portta PET50E Review by Dan M. Beadle "Entrepreneur" (Lake Tahoe, NV)

In our remodel, I planned for a TV in the kitchen, but during construction, the RG6 coax was damaged and not detected until construction was over. My wife wanted me to figure out a way to get coax into the kitchen. I put it of for a couple years, not wanting to screw up the aesthetics of the remodel.

I decided that I would finally deliver and pull cable. Then I searched one more time for range extenders and found this device which takes only a single Cat5 cable. I had two Cat5 drops in the kitchen that worked. So I built up a great solution using this extender, an HDMI Splitter: ViewHD 2 Port HDMI 1x2 Powered Splitter Ver 1.3 Certified for Full HD 1080P & 3D (One Input To Two Outputs), and an RF Remote for DirecTv: New High Quality DIRECTV RC65RBK 4 DEVICE DIRECTV REPLACEMENT REMOTE WITH RF FEATURE (REMOTE CONTROLS)

The solution works great. The splitter lets me borrow a seldom used receiver in our grown daughter's room. The extender plugged into existing Cat5 in her room. I patched the bedroom to the kitchen at the basement patch panel and hooked up the other end of the extender in the kitchen to an HDTV. I set up the remote's RF feature and then was up to the kitchen to try it out.

Everything works great. With HDMI this signal is either perfect or non-existent. And the signal is perfect even after going through about 100' of cable and 8 Cat5 connections. The DirecTV RF works great.

So, now my wife has a TV for her morning coffee and my daughter still has a TV when she visits. If they want to watch different things, they can have dueling Remotes - not my problem.

BEWARE! I just received this product, hooked it up with a 6' Cat5 cable to test it, and as soon as I plugged it into my computer it fried my video card. I disconnected it and directly connected my computer to the HDMI monitor and cannot get a picture any longer.

Portta PET50E:: Description


This HDMI Extender by CAT5 x 1 uses one piece of CAT5e/6 cable to extend the HDTV display up to 50 Meters(150FT) for 1080p. It not only breaks the limitation of the HDMI cable trasmission length, but also has more flexibility and convenience in cable construction.
