System connection
Usage precautions
 The system should be installed in a clean environment and have proper
temperature and humidity controls.
 All of the power switches, plugs, sockets, and power cords should be insulated for
safety.
 All devices should be connected before powering on.
 The Cat5e/Cat6 terminations for HDBaseT devices must be a straight-thru TIA/EIA
T568B standard.
Application examples
The HDBaseT CM-BT20-COMPACT-70-RX receiver works in conjunction with the
HDBaseT CM-BT20-COMPACT-70-TX transmitter. By transmitting signals across
reliable Cat5e/Cat6 cables, the video signal can be used at far greater distances from
the source device than would be capable with traditional HDMI cables. Additionally,
control signals can be sent bi-directionally across the same Cat5e/Cat6 cable. The
following figures show you some application examples for the HDBaseT CM-BT20-
COMPACT-70-TX and RX.
Note: When using a control system, such as Clare Controls, Crestron, or URC, the
3.5mm male mono to 3.5mm male stereo adapter cable (included) must be used. The
male mono end connects to the control system; the male stereo end connects to
CM-BT20-COMPACT-70-TX.
