I use many different computers with a Casio XJ-A235 projector, but my Macs (so far) only seem to recognize the projector when using a straight HDMI cable. I have tried a few other manufacturer's HDMI extender solutions, but so far none have worked. The computer just doesn't recognize the existence of the projector.

The specific problem occurs with Macs that have the mini-DVI connector (the older style), but as I said using a straight HDMI cable, the setup works fine. I just need to be able to extend the distance to between 15-30 meters (50-100 ft).

At this time, B126-1A1 does not support EDID pass-through. However, our B125 series of HDMI extenders does support EDID Pass-through.

Carry a 12V trigger signal

I would like to carry a 12V trigger signal over the same Cat5 cable I'm using for the B126-1A1. Are all pairs of the cable being used, or can I use 1 or 2 pairs of the Cat5 to carry 12V?

Lower resolution video?

Your web site says the B126-1A1 will handle 1080P 60Hz and 3D, but Is it backward compatible with lower resolutions as well? Like a 480p signal out of a HDMI equipped DVD or the output from a HDMI equipped laptop?

I have some unused runs in my Ethernet network. Can I patch the B126 equipment through my patch panel and wall plates to connect to a remote TV?
No. The Cat5e/6 connection between the B126 Transmitter and Receiver has to be a single, point-to-point patch cable, made with solid conductor wire, per the Owner's Manual. Patching through patch panels, wall jacks and stranded conductor patch cables create multiple points of signal attenuation (loss), causing the HDMI signal to degrade to the point where the Receiver will not recognize it.
