* Long reach TPS mode supports pixel clock frequencies up to 148.5 MHz.
** AWG 26 cables are not recommended with remote powering.
Above values are valid when the extender is powered by a local adaptor; distances may de-
crease depending on the powering mode (local or remote) and cable quality.
CAT7 SFTP AWG23 cable is always recommended.
Bi-directional pass-through data lines
The direction of the video extension is fixed from TX towards RX but the pass-through data
lines are bi-directional*. It means the RS-232, IR, Ethernet source and sink devices can be
connected either to the TX or to the RX and the signal is transmitted to the other extender.
* In fact IR transmission is uni-directional but the extender has two IR channels with different
directions.
RS-232
Third party devices with standard RS-232 port are supported as the extenders work in „pass-
through” mode. TX and RX provide 3-pole Phoenix connector. The RS-232 options – the baud
rate and the parity bits are set on the third party devices and it can be anything. The extenders
support any kind of serial settings.
Please find the RS-232 device type in its user guide; the extenders work as DCE devices.
Ethernet
The Ethernet port on the RX or on TX can be connected to a LAN hub, switch or router with a
LAN cable. The other side behaves as an Ethernet uplink port. The extenders support 10/100
Mbps data transfer rate. The Ethernet port has auto crossover function. It is able to recognize
and handle both cable types: patch and cross TP cables.
Infrared (IR)
One emitter and one detector is enough for
remote controlling one IR sink device. If there
is an IR sink device to be controlled next to
the TX and the other one is next to the RX,
two emitter-detector pairs are needed. The IR emitter and the detector have standard 3.5 mm
TRS (jack) connectors. The emitter’s plug has two poles (mono) and the detector’s plug has
three poles (stereo).
The second emitter and detector pair can be ordered from Ligtware separately.
IR output mode switch
The IR output signal modulation can be selected by the front panel switch as follows:
Emitter:
the 38 kHz modulation is switched on. In this case an IR emitter can be
connected to the IR output port.
Wired:
the 38 kHz modulation is switched off. This option allows to connect a cable
between the IR output of the extender and the IR input port of the device desired to
remote control.

TPS link modes
The TPS working mode between the transmitter and the receiver parties is determined by
the mode set in them. Both parties influence on the setting which determines the final TPS
transmission mode. The following TPS modes are defined:
Long reach (LR):
Longer CATx cable length, less bandwidth (limited resolution). The
LPPF mode is not available in LR TPS link mode.
HDBaseT
TM
(HDBT):
more bandwidth (higher resolutions), shorter CATx cable length. If
no video present, the units change to LPPF mode automatically.
Low Power Partial Functionality (LPPF):
Only Ethernet, RS-232 and IR are extended.
Toggling between TPS link modes
The toggle switch on the extenders can
be used to toggle between the LR and
Auto TPS modes. If both units have Auto
state and there is valid video signal on
the transmitter the common mode will
be HDBT. If the video signal disappears
devices go into LPPF mode.
TPS mode between an extender and a port of a matrix board
If an extender and a TPS matrix board are paired the board forces the extender to use the
settings of the matrix. The extender’s TPS mode switch has no effect.
Always use the Auto mode with third-party devices!
