I am speccing a project that needs to send HDMI over fiber in a
building. The GC is insisting on terminating the multimode with LC
connectors. I am looking at using a Gefen or Blackbox extenders,
they require multimode with SC connectors. I see that there are
available patch cables that go from LC to SC, does anyone know if
there is any gotcha when using these mixed connector patch cables? Also - Does anyone have a favorite extender? I am not sold on any that I have seen. I see a number of cat6 based ones too, also there is now HDbaseT. I assume latency is a tradeoff, but is it really an issue? MD --
