CHAPTER 3: INSTALLATION AND WIRING
1. Using a quality DisplayPort cable, connect a DisplayPort source to the DP in connector on the Transmitter.
NOTE: Make sure the source and display are 4K compatible if attempting to transmit an Ultra HD signal — check that all devices
are correctly configured for input/output compatibility.
2. Connect a good quality, well-terminated CAT5e/6/7 cable between the HDBT Out connector of the Transmitter to the HDBT In
connector of the Receiver.
NOTE: 230 feet (70 meters) @ 4K or 328 feet (100 meters) @ 1080 p video are maximum recommended transmission distances
for this model under perfect transmission conditions — including straight cable runs with no electrical interference, bends,
kinks, patch panels or wall outlets. If any of the above factors are marginal in your installation, transmission range
may be affected — be careful to avoid where possible.
3. Connect the DisplayPort display device (LED/LCD display or projector) to the DP Out connector of the Receiver.
NOTE: We strongly recommended using the supplied mounting brackets to secure the receiver to a flat surface behind/near
the display device. Sudden movement of these devices could lead to loss of picture/sound if connections become loose
or strained, resulting in unnecessary service callbacks.
4. Connect the included 12-V power supply to the Transmitter. The PoE function carries power along the length of the cable one-way
to power the Receiver. No additional power supply is required at the display end of the cable run.
Check that the Power, Status, and HDCP and Link lights are illuminated on both units to indicate successful connection,
with a lit HDCP light illustrating the presence of encryption within the signal. Power and Link are static lights. The Status LED
should be blinking.
