Wireless HDMI in the garden
Is the weather nice and would you like to watch TV outside and you don't have a television connection or Wi-Fi range outside? Then use a wireless HDMI extender and enjoy every match in razor-sharp quality and without delay.
With a wireless HDMI extender you can easily (temporarily) place your TV under the canopy, at the back of the garden or on your terrace. Simply send the HDMI signal from your TV decoder wirelessly to a TV in the garden with one of our HDMI extenders.

How Does an HDMI Extender Work?
If you are looking for a reliable and direct way to watch television in your garden without delays or limitations in terms of range, a wireless HDMI extender is the perfect solution. An HDMI extender is very easy to connect. You just need to follow these steps:
- Choose a suitable wireless HDMI extender: Look for a wireless HDMI extender that has sufficient range to send the signal from your house to the garden. Make sure the extender is compatible with the resolution of your television and the source of your World Cup broadcast (e.g., TV decoder, media box).
- Place the transmitter unit: Connect the transmitter unit of the wireless HDMI extender to the HDMI output of the source of your World Cup (TV decoder, media box). Ensure that the transmitter unit is placed near a power outlet. The signal from our HDMI extenders goes through windows, doors, floors, walls, and ceilings.
- Place the receiver unit: Place the receiver unit of the wireless HDMI extender in your garden where you want to watch television. This can be on a table, mounted on a wall, or on a tripod. Ensure that the receiver unit is connected to a power outlet.
- Check the signal: If the HDMI transmitter and HDMI receiver are properly connected, there should be no interruption or delay in video or audio playback.
- Enjoy the World Cup: Once everything is set up and the signal is stable, you can sit back, relax, and enjoy watching the World Cup in your garden.
