3.1 Cabling Considerations 

 

• We recommend mounting and connecting all cabling to the HD1-DX Series 
components before applying power. 
• Make sure that the category cable you intend to use has been tested to comply 
with the T568B wiring specification (See 

Appendix A

).

This section contains figures showing connections with the specific HD1-DX Series 
models. In general, however, the connection and setup procedure at both 
transmitter and receiver ends is as follows: 

NOTE: 

All HD1-DX units should be cabled and powered on prior to turning on the video 
source device and display. It is recommended to cable/power on the HD1-DX units, 
then the display, and lastly the video source. 
 
At the transmitter end: 

 
1.  Connect the source video to the HD1-DX transmitter HDMI INPUT port using 

an HDMI type A cable (If using DVI video an HDMI to DVI adapter is required). 

 
2.  Connect the category cable to the UTP OUTPUT port on the transmitter. 
 
3.    Apply power to the transmitter. See Figure 3-3 for LED status modes. 

 
At the receiver end : 

 
1.  Connect the display to the HDMI OUTPUT connector of the HD1-DX receiver  

(If using DVI video an HDMI to DVI adapter is required). 

 
2.  Connect the category cable to the UTP INPUT port on the receiver. 
 
3.  Apply power to the receiver. See Figure 3-3 for LED status modes.
