Video connectors exist on television video equipment, and now on personal computers and other types of electronics. Just a couple decades ago the world of video connectors was extremely simple. Today, through a combination of factors including an overall lack of industry standardization, competing companies, corporate greed, draconian anti copy laws, anti copy technologies, and a general push for technology that not all consumers even want, we now have a dizzying array of different video connector types.

HDBaseT
This one is based on the Cat 5e/6 network cables, commonly referred to as “ethernet cables” and will replace HDMI. HDBaseT is superior to HDMI for many reasons including it uses a standard cable that is more flexible and easier to work with, has much greater range, and the cable is far less expensive than HDMI. It supports cable lengths up to 328 feet. The cable can pass HD and 3-D video signals, as well as data through an integrated 100MBit Ethernet connection.
