Installation
1. Determine where the local video source (i.e. computer, Blu-ray Player) will be
located and set up the device.
2. Determine where the remote display will be located and place/ mount the
display appropriately.
NOTE: This HDMI® extender kit features Power over cable, allowing both the
transmitter and receiver to be powered from a single power source that connects
to either the transmitter or receiver unit. Please ensure that unit you’ve chosen to
power is situated near an available AC electrical outlet. Make sure all devices are
turned off before beginning installation.
Before you begin Hardware Installation ensure both transmitter and receiver are
properly grounded.
Hardware Installation
1. Install transmitter unit
a) Position the transmitter unit near the video source (i.e. Computer, Blu-ray Player).
b) Connect an HDMI® cable from the video source device (i.e. computer, Blu-ray
Player) to the HDMI® in port on the transmitter unit.
c) (Optional) If you’ve chosen to connect the power adapter to the transmitter unit,
connect the power adapter from the power adapter port to an available wall outlet.
2. Install RJ45 terminated Cat5e/6 Ethernet Cable
a) Connect an RJ45 terminated Cat5e/6 Ethernet cable (not included) to the RJ45
connector on the transmitter unit.
NOTE: If you are using surface cabling, ensure you have enough Category 5e
unshielded twisted pair (UTP) network cabling to connect the Host Unit to the
Remote Unit’s location, and that each end is terminated with a RJ45 connector. The
cabling should not go through any networking equipment (i.e. router, switch).
OR
If you are using premises cabling, ensure that the Category 5 unshielded twisted
pair (UTP) network cabling between the Host Unit and the Remote Unit has been
properly terminated in a wall outlet in each location and there is a patch cable long
enough to connect the Remote Unit and the Host Unit to their respective outlets.
The cabling should not go through any networking equipment (i.e. router, switch).
b) Connect the other end of the Cat5e/6 cable run to the RJ45 connector on the
receiver unit.
