Introduction to Obonok HDMI-over-UTP-CAT5/6
products

• Design based on two cutting-edge core
  technologies
• Enable customers to distribute a single HD video
  source to up 2049 displays and up to 1600 feet of
  distance in a highly cost-effective manner
• Distribute HD video digitally and do not compress
  the data, to achieve the highest possible quality
• Support full HD (1080p) and are fully HDCP
  compliant

6
Core Technologies

• ASIC-based HDMI splitters
• A single ASIC splits one HDMI source into two
  identical sources
• A 1xN HDMI splitter is built using (N-1) ASIC
  chips
• All Obonok HDMI-over-UTP/CatX products use the
  same ASIC as the basic building block

7
Core Technologies contd

• Patent pending (US 6,0956,684 and 6,0968,046)
  HDMI over a single UTP/ CatX technology
• HDMI signals are converted to transmit through a
  single UTP/CatX cable / 150 or more each hop
• These are the keys to distributing HD video in a
  highly cost-effective manner

8
Obonok Advantages vs. Gefen HDMI Cat-5 Extreme

• Lower cost
• Unit pricing
• One CatX cable vs. two
• UTP vs. shielded
• Much easier installation / setup / maintenance

• No adjustments on transmitter or receiver, vs.
  dipswitches on both Gefen units
• No power needed for point-to-point receiver
  regardless of distance

9

  capability not simply point-to-point

10
How can Obonok extend HDMI HDCP over one UTP?

• TMDS Transition Minimized Differential
  Signaling data packets
• Contain encoded video, audio and control data
• Obonok further encrypts/encodes TMDS digital
  video data with HDCP
• One of Obonoks core technologies / patent pending

How can Obonok daisy-chain its receivers out to
1600 feet?

• Adaptive equalizer automatically adjusts the
  overall gain based on the variable losses due to
  the cable length / coupling
• Proprietary matching networks at both the
  transmitter receiver
• Proprietary clock jitter removal
• Next receiver sees clean TMDS signals, as if
  connected to the video source

HDMI Cable vs. UTP Cable

• Technically an HDMI cable can reach up to 75
  feet. But HDMI cables over 30 feet are bulky,
  expensive and usually need special orders.
• A 60-foot HDMI cable costs about 350.

• UTP cables are widely available.
• A 150-foot UTP Cat6 cable costs around 35.

21
HDMI Cable vs. UTP Cable contd

• HDMI cables are heavier, thicker and less
  flexible their length is fixed.

• UTP cables are lighter, thinner and more
  flexible multiple shorter cables can be easily
  connected to create a longer one.
• Most buildings are pre-wired with UTP cables.
• Using UTP cable can greatly reduce over-all
  engineering costs.

Application Notes

• The above are six typical applications.
• represents UTP cables up to 150 feet.
• represents short HDMI cables.
• HDMI and DVI are interchangeable by using an
  HDMI/DVI adaptor or an HDMI/DVI converter cable.
• UTP cables are hot-pluggable.
• HDMI/DVI cables are generally not hot-pluggable.

29
Application Notes contd

• The above six applications can be combined to
  create an almost unlimited number of variations
• To reduce cost, only use HDMI cables when
  connected either to the source or to the
  displays use UTP cables for all intermediate
  transmission
