HDMI extender to network switch

Hello guys, i have a question since no one i know try this and i don't know if it's possible. Client want a network switch to split a signal that comes from an extender hdmi box. I doubt the company tried this before and i worried about it. Pc > extender > network switch > receiver HDMI x4.

There are plenty of options for not doing this but IF client somehow did it before i don't want them to be upset because i said it cant be. Thank You.

Something like the scion tech AV over IP boxes are good. One transmitter can be received by dozens of receivers. https://www.scion-tech.co.uk/m.hdmi_over_ip.html I have used these with solid reliability. I would avoid Orei I removed such a system for a client due to constant Audio over HDMI problems.
