HD-MD-300-C-E is a high-definition AV switcher, scaler, and extender that consists of a
transmitter and a receiver.
Installing the Transmitter
Install the transmitter into a 2-gang electrical box (not included) in a wall, floor, or ceiling. A minimum
mounting depth of 2 inches (51 mm) is required.
To install the transmitter into an electrical box, do the following:

2. Using a Phillips screwdriver, attach the transmitter to the electrical box using the four included
#6-32 x 3/4-inch truss combo head screws.
3. Attach a decorator-style faceplate (not included) to the front panel of the transmitter using four
screws (not included).
