4.4. Connection Procedure
1. If installing in a back-box, it is recommended that the transmitter be installed in a 4-5/8”
square box at a minimum. The 4-5/8” square box has sufficient space to terminate the
cables with jacks behind the unit when fully installed.
2. Run one twisted pair cable from the transmitter location to the location where the HDBaseT
Receiver will be located.
3. If using the WP8 Control Panel or a third-party control system, run another twisted pair
cable from the transmitter location to the location that the Control device will be located.
4. All twisted pair cables should be terminated with RJ45 plugs. This allows the permanent link
between the two devices to be tested.
5. If using the WP8 Control Panel or a third-party control system, follow the installation
instructions for the device you are connecting it to.
Note: Category 6A cabling with alien crosstalk prevention technology is recommended to be used
for ensuring the performance of the HDBaseT link.
