READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR

OPERATING THE 1:4 HDMI CAT5 DA

• 

The 1:4 HDMI CAT5 DA unit is housed in a metal box for better RF shielding.

• 

An HDMI jumper cable (4 are included) must be connected from each of the 
lower board outputs to each of the upper board inputs for proper extension 
operation.

• 

The maximum cable extension is 300 feet (91 meters) for video resolutions of 
1080i and below.

• 

The maximum cable extension is 150 feet (45 meters) for video resolutions of 
1080p. 

• 

Display information (EDID) from the display attached to the HDMI CAT5 DAR 
receiver, which is then routed to HDMI output port 1 (lower board), will be sent back 
to the source. Therefore, all other displays connected to the receivers at the remote 
locations must be capable of accepting the timings and resolutions of the display 
that is attached to HDMI output port 1.  It is recommended that the display with the 
lowest native resolution be connected to HDMI output port 1. This is to ensure that 
a compatible video signal will be able to be displayed on all connected monitors.

• 

The DDC cable (for each pair or extensions) does not need to be run if the 
source does not require HDCP or DDC. In this scenario, a single CAT-5, CAT5e 
or CAT-6 cable for the video can be run. If DDC is still required while HDCP 
is not, the use of an EDID storage device (part# EXT-DVI-EDIDN, EXT-DVI-
EDIDP) can be used to transmit DDC information back to the source with this 
single cable solution.

• 

Shielded CAT6 with metal RJ-45 connectors is recommended to protect from 
random fl ashes caused by EMI.

• 

Power supply for the receiver should not be connected unless the CAT-5, CAT-
5e or CAT-6 cable runs exceed 180 feet, or you are using the single CAT-5, 
CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable solution listed above.

• 

Extensions under 130 feet can use Auto EQ (which is on by default). 
Extensions over 130 feet will require you to manually EQ your signal (see page 
5).

• 

Each cable is recommended to be one continuous run from one end to the 
other. While wall jacks and punch down blocks can be used, they may cause 
degraded performance or unforeseen issues.

• 

Do not use stranded or low/no skew cabling. Solid core cabling should be used 
for maximum performance.

• 

HDMI \ HDCP Compliant.
