iPad 2 HDMI Adapter - Max Cable Distance
I work as a A/V Specialist at a local university. Currently we are running the majority of new projectors with HDMI. Since the iPad 2 has come out with its mirroring feature via the HDMI adapter, professors want to be able to plug their iPads into our projectors. The problem I seem to be facing is that if the cable is long (which most of them are longer than 25ft), it doesn't work. It will work on a 2 meter HDMI though. I just don't have a lot of lengths to test with and was wondering if someone knew if there was a max length for the HDMI cable. It makes sense that the iPad most likely doesn't push a lot of power out of the port being a mobile device.
My next question is, has anyone tried some sort of HDMI power injector to get over the distance problem and been successful? If so, I would appreciate knowing what model you used.
Thanks in advance.
