Understanding the LED’s
This MSolutions extender set includes status LED indicators on both the Transmitter and Receiver
products to show active connections and to further help integrators diagnose potential problems
with the associated cabling.
The RJ45 HDBaseT connections on both the transmitter and receiver units have orange and green
LED’s.
• The orange LED indicates that the unit is receiving power. The LED will blink continuously.
• The green LED indicates that the unit is communicating with the unit attached to the far side of
the link over the Cat cable. The LED will be solid whilst the units are able to host a HDBaseT link
across the infrastructure.
• Internal LED’s that may be seen through venting of the product are not indicative of a working /
non-working unit.
Cabling for HDBaseT
It is important that the interconnecting Cat cable between the MSolutions HDBaseT products is
terminated using the correct RJ45 pin configuration. The link Cat cable must be a ‘straight’ (pin-to-
pin) Cat cable and it is advised that this is wired to the T568B wiring standard as this format is less
prone to EMI (Electro-Magnetic Interference).
When installing Cat cables it is advised that the best possible Cat cable quality possible is used.
HDMI distribution products will only work if used with Cat5e standard cable or above. MSolutions
recommends using a Cat6 (or higher) cable for installations, especially when running over longer
distances, in areas of high EMI, or with 4K signal distribution.
The HDMI cable infrastructure should be compliant to High-Speed standards, especially where
4K is being distributed. It is important to understand that where excessive HDMI cable lengths are
used, this brings increased reduction in signal integrity over distance compared to HDBaseT. It is
therefore recommended to use short HDMI cables to ensure the integrity of the signal over the link.
For HDBaseT and HDMI testing capabilities, please refer to the MSolutions MS-TestPro to prove
both Cat and HDMI cables can be used for video signal distribution.
