Important Safety Instructions
Please read the supplied safety instruction document before using the product and keep it
available for future reference.
Introduction
WP/FP-HDMI-TPS-RX97 series twisted pair HDBaseT
TM
extenders provide
extension of uncompressed 4K/UHD video with embedded audio (up to eight
channel PCM or HBR audio) for long distances over a single CATx cable.
The thoroughly redesigned form factor of the wall and floor panels allows for easier
connecting and removing cables in narrow spaces (behind TV sets, under floor panel lids)
and reduces cable bending and breaking. The built-in cable tie-down points further ensure
stable connection and reduce cable stress.

bottom of the wall plate.
CATx
DVI
Connect the TPS output port of the receiver to the
TPS+PoE
port of the
TPS-PI-1P1 by a CATx cable.
Connect the receiver (or the Matrix input board) to the power injector by a
CATx cable via the TPS port.
HDMI
Connect the sink (e.g. Projector) to the HDMI output port by HDMI cable.
RS-232
Optionally for RS-232 extension: connect a controller/controlled device
(e.g. Projector) to the RS-232 port.
IR
Optionally for Infrared extension:
Connect the IR emitter to the IR OUT port of the receiver, and/or
Connect the IR detector to the IR IN port of the receiver.
LAN
Optionally connect the receiver to a LAN.
Power
Powering on the devices is recommended to do as the final step during
the installation. Please check the Power Supply Options section for the
details.
WP-HDMI-TPS-RX97 series have the same connectors but the dimensions are different.
The product is compatible with any HDBaseT
TM
third party devices.

Power Supply Options
TPS-97 extenders are compatible with IEEE 802.3af standard - Power over Ethernet (PoE) -
and can receive power over the TPS line.
The extender can be powered by any of the following ways:
1. Local adaptor
2. Remote power injector
3. Matrix board
TPS-TX/RX90 and TPS-TX/RX95 are not PoE-compatible, thus not able to remote power
the WP-HDMI-TPS-TX/97 series and vica versa. WP-UMX-TPS-TX97 series contains PoE-
compatible remote power function (PD, Powered Device), RX95 and TX95 extenders can be
remote powered only by each other.
Warranty void if damage occurs due to the usage of a different power source.
