1. INTRODUCTION
This HDMI over single Cat.5e/6/7 Transmitter is a great solution for
extending HD audio and video as well as Ethernet and control via
a single run of Cat.5e/6/7 cable over distances of up to 100 meters.
Multiple data and control interfaces are provided, including IR, RS-232
and LAN connections. This Transmitter complies with the advanced
HDCP 2.2 and HDMI 2.0 standards, as well as supporting the legacy
HDCP 1.x and HDMI 1.x standards. Despite HDBaseT’s 10.Gbps
bandwidth limitation, 4K UHD HDMI video sources, up to and including
4K@60Hz (4:4:4, 8-bit) as well as 10/12-bit sources with HDR, are able
to be processed and extended by the use of AVLC (Adaptive Visually
Lossless Compression) when connected to a compatible AVLC
Receiver.
Beyond video, data, and control this unit also contains useful audio
features. The Optical Audio Return (OAR) feature supports transmitting
optical audio back from a compatible Receiver for local playback.
Rounding out the feature set is robust EDID management as well as
automatic HDBaseT clock stretching and TMDS re-clocking support.
This Transmitter (PSE) can provide 48V PoH (Power over HDBaseT)
to a compatible Receiver (PD), allowing for greater exibility within
different installation scenarios.
2. APPLICATIONS
• 48V PoH from Transmitter (PSE) to Receiver (PD)
• Household entertainment sharing and control
• Lecture room display and control
• Showroom display and control
• Meeting room presentation and control
• Classroom display and control

• Integrated AVLC (Adaptive Visually Lossless Compression) activates
when the bandwidth requirements of the source are beyond
10.2Gbps (340MHz) allowing for sources up to 18Gbps (600MHz) to
be sent to a compatible Receiver with no loss of visual quality
• The AVLC feature allows manual selection between High Quality
Mode (Full bandwidth) and Standard Mode (Lower bandwidth,
useful for longer cable runs with 4K sources)
• Supports the Optical Audio Return (OAR) function to transmit optical
audio from a compatible Receiver to the Transmitter
• Comprehensive EDID management support including 6 pre-dened
EDIDs, 9 user EDIDs and an EDID bypass mode
• PC-based EDID management software allows for the uploading of
customized user EDIDs via USB
• Supports HDMI DDC bus clock stretching for improved compatibility
with certain Blu-ray players
• Performs TMDS re-clocking and signal re-generation for improved
signal integrity
• Ultra-thin wall plate design (16mm thickness) for convenient
installation
• Supports standard 48V PoH from Transmitter (PSE) to Receiver (PD)

1DC 48V: Plug the 48V DC power adapter into this port and connect
it to an AC wall outlet for power.
Note: Please be sure to follow the polarity labels on the unit and
the adapter’s wires.
2POWER LED: This LED will illuminate to indicate the unit is on and
receiving power.
LINK LED: This LED will illuminate solidly when a live connection with
a compatible Receiver is active.
3OPT. OUT: Connect to powered speakers or an amplier for digital
audio output using an appropriate optical cable. Audio is sourced
from the Optical Audio Return input on a connected compatible
Receiver.
4IR EXTENDER 1: Connect to an IR Extender to extend the IR control
range of devices connected to the other end of the HDBaseT
connection. Ensure that the remote being used is within direct line-
of-sight of the IR Extender.
5IR BLASTER 2: Connect to the provided IR Blaster to transmit IR
signals from the other end of the HDBaseT connection to devices
within direct line-of-sight of the IR Blaster.
6SERVICE: This USB port is reserved for rmware update and user
EDID upload use.
7RS-232: Connect to a PC, laptop or other serial control device with
a 3-pin adapter cable for the extension of RS-232 signals to the
Receiver in "Bypass" mode, or for control this unit when in "Console"
mode.
Note: Depending on the controlled device connected to the
Receiver side, the Tx and Rx pins might need to be reversed.
8CONSOLE/BYPASS: This switch controls the operational mode of the
RS-232 port. When set to “Bypass”, RS-232 signals will be passed to
the connected Receiver. When set to “Console” the RS-232 port
may be used to send commands directly to the Transmitter.
Note: RS-232 bypass requires both the Transmitter and Receiver to
be set to “Bypass” mode.

network, as appropriate, to extend the network to both ends of
the HDBaseT connection.
2HDMI IN: Connect to HDMI source equipment such as a media
player, game console or set-top box.
3HQ & STD LEDs: These LEDs illuminate to indicate which AVLC mode
will be used when AVLC is required. The lower green LED indicates
that AVLC will use HQ (High Quality) mode. The upper yellow LED
indicates that AVLC will use STD (Standard) mode.
4HQ/STD SWITCH: This switch allows the user to select which
compression mode to use when AVLC is active, High Quality or
Standard.
Note: HQ (High Quality) mode uses the least amount of
compression and provides the highest possible visual quality
(perceptually identical to the original). STD (Standard Quality)
mode applies additional signal reduction methods to lower
the bandwidth requirements of 4K sources further, improving
transmission reliability over longer cable runs at the cost of some
visual delity.
5CAT5e/6/7 OUT: Connect to a compatible HDBaseT Receiver with
a single Cat.5e/6/7 cable for transmission of all data signals. 48V
PoH will also be supplied when connected to a compatible PD
Receiver.
Note: The 48V PoH function is designed for powering compatible
Receiver units only. Non-PoH Receivers will need their own power
supply. Receivers from other brands may not be compatible.
