Works out of box.
Its completely passive. No setup or drivers required.
Weaknesses:
Flimsy connector jacks. Not for repeated connects and disconnects.
Poor Documentation
Requires 2X as much CAT 5e,6 cable as your run (100' run = 200' CAT5 cable)
Summary:
Works out of box. Includes 5V port for really long distances but I didn't need to use it. My projector set up in the next room (over 100' of cat 5e cable) and this passes the 1080p video and audio flawlessly. Its completely passive, the computer doesn't see it works just like a regular HDMI cable.
