How to Connect the Extender for HDMI Long Range

1.  Connect the HDMI source device to the Extender for HDMI Long Range 

sender unit using the supplied HDMI cable.

2.  Connect one pair of CAT-5, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cables between the sender and 

receiver unit’s RJ-45 Video and DDC ports.

NOTE: 

If the source device does not require an EDID, or if an EDID is provided 

by some other means, a single CAT-5 cable can be used for extension. This 
single cable solution will only use the CAT-5 cable connected between the RJ-45 
Video ports on the sender and receiver units. An EDID storage device, such as 
a DVI detective (part# EXT-DVI-EDIDN) can be used to record the display EDID 
and placed between the source device and the sender unit.

3.  Connect the HDMI capable device to the Extender for HDMI Long Range 

receiver unit using a user supplied HDMI cable.

4.  Connect the included 5V DC power supplies to  both the sender and receiver 

units.

5.  Power on the HDMI capable device connected to the receiver fi rst and the 

HDMI source device connected to the sender second.
