New HDMI to CAT5 Products are Missing Link for Aircraft HD

Flight Display Systems is pleased to introduce the HDMI to CAT5 Transmitter and Receiver product set. These new products make it easier than ever to run High-Definition (HD) video throughout the aircraft cabin.

We believe this is the missing link for displaying High-Definition video in the aircraft cabin,” said David Gray, President of Flight Display Systems. “Now installers can use an industry-recognized aircraft cable for a previously limited wiring job.”

The FDC5TX (Transmitter) and FDC5RX (Receiver) provide an easy and flexible cabling solution for connecting High-Definition (HD) source equipment and displays. They eliminate the need for costly aircraft-certified HDMI wire and amplifiers. Additionally, these two products allow customers to use a single Category 5E (CAT5E) or Category 6 (CAT6) cable to extend 1080i and 1080p video signals up to 100 feet.

The FDC5TX (Transmitter) and FDC5RX (Receiver) are available now and sold separately at $438 each.
