To get 1080p HDMI working over IR is a good trick.

It will save a lot of hassle stringing cables in impossible situations.

It's over Cat-5 not IR!

The "IR" is very misleading, and the article is composed in such a way that it is impossible to get a definite answer from the text as well.

I spotted this product almost a month ago because my new NEC LCD2690WUXi display was causing some audio interference in mire firewire Audio I/O box's output. (They make these for DVI as well).

For those of you with magnetic interference issues where you're display is concerned, this is a good way to get rid of the copper that carries the interference.

However, $575 is way to pricey at this point. Hopefully someone will makes this cheaper as competitors emerge and the market matures. Who knows- maybe will see ethernet and fiber as the replacement for all audio connections. That would GREATLY cheapen the cable costs, and bankrupt the likes of Griffin.
