Troubleshooting
Most issues with the KD-HDMIWPTX setup will involve resolution and distance
performance. If you experience problems (no image, video artifacts, picture dropout,
noise) here are a few things to try.
Use the shortest possible HDMI and CAT5 cables between devices.
Lower the output resolution of the image source.
Use the provided power supply for the KD-HDMIWPTX instead of relying on the
voltage in the HDMI cable to power the unit.
Use Key Digital

HDMI cables.
Other possible problems can result from custom made CAT5 cables. CAT5 cables must
be terminated in accordance with TIA/EIA-568-A or TIA/EIA-568-B pin-pair assignments.
