- 📉 Input/output cable lengths must stay within spec
- 🧯 No signal conversion—must match HDMI format end-to-end
🛠️ Quick Tips for Beginners
- 🧠 Place repeater midway between two HDMI cables
- 🔍 Use certified HDMI 2.0+ cables for 4K transmission
- 🧼 Keep unit ventilated—some run warm during operation
