3.0 DC POWER CONNECTION
Congratulations!Youare nowreadytopoweruptheLBC-HDMI-T/R-WP
and set up your network connection. In order to make sure that you
have a proper installation, please observe the following:
1. Your AC jack has power.
2. The 24VDC power supply is working.
3. Yourelectrical systemhas proper grounding(this ensuresthat
your power supply does not suffer from voltage variations).
4. Power Surge Protection. This is optional, but highly
recommended.A UPS system provides voltage regularity as
well as prevents spikes from occurring, thus protecting your
LBH-HDMI-T/R-WPfrom sensitive voltage conditions.
TheLBC-HDMI-T/R-WP derivespower froman external 24VDC power
supply or via PoH (Power over HDBaseT). This power supply is a wall
mountedAC/DCadapter,100-240 VAC,50-60 Hz,at 1.0A.This power
supply comes standard for the LBC-HDMI-T/R-WP unless otherwise
specified. To provide power to the LBC-H/V-T-WP, simply connect the
power cord, already provided with the units, and connect it to the wall
jack. (You will find one power cord per unit). Once the power cord has
beenconnected tothe wall jack,connect 24VDCto the unitand theunit
should power up immediately. If you have any problems or concerns,
regarding the installation, make sure that you have taken the proper
steps to ensure a proper power connection. Otherwise, feel free to
contact us for any questions you may have.

LBC-HDMI-T/R-WP wall plate must confirm national and local
electricalcodes, e.g., ULjunction boxes shall be usedand DC
power source shall not exceed product rated range (+24VDC
@ 1A). Follow the following steps for power/CAT5e/6
installation:
1. FeedbothCAT-5e/6and power cables throughthe opening
of the wall box, and secure the cables with cable clamps
to provide strain relief.
2. Terminated CAT-5e/6 with RJ45 connector to be directly
plugged into the RJ45 connector port of the
LBC-HDMI-T/R-WP unit.
3. Before connecting power wire to the LBC-HDMI-T/R-WP
unit, make sure power supply is off. Prepare the Positive
(+24V)and chassis ground(CHASSIS toearth ground) tip
of the power wire as shown in Figure 3-1 to be directly
plugged into the captive screw +24VDC connector of the
LBC-HDMI-T/R-WP unit. Make sure the polarity of the
connection is correct. Insulate any exposed wire shields
to prevent short circuits.
