Terminating the Interconnecting HDBaseT CAT Cable
It is important that the interconnecting CAT cable between the ELAN 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 you use the best possible CAT cable quality possible. HDMI distribution products will only work if used
with CAT5e standard cable or above. We recommend using a CAT6 (or better) cable for your installations, especially when running over longer
distances, in areas of high EMI, or for 4K signal distribution.

Understanding the HDBaseT Signal Status Lights
The ELAN®HDBaseT extender solutions include status LED indicators on both the Transmitter and Receiver products to show all connections are
active and to help diagnose possible problems.
Understanding the RJ45 connector status lights on both TX and RX units
•The orange HDBaseT link light will be off when there is no CAT cable / active HDBaseT signal on the RJ45 HDBaseT connection
•The orange HDBaseT link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Transmitter and Receiver
•The orange HDBaseT link light will be lit when a CAT cable is connected to the HDBaseT RJ45 output on the Transmitter and an active connection
is achieved with the input of the Receiver
•The green HDBaseT HDCP light will be off when no video signal is being transmitted between Transmitter and Receiver
•The green HDBaseT HDCP light will flash when there is video signal without HDCP being transmitted
•The green HDBaseT HDCP light will be on when there is video signal with HDCP being transmitted
•The power link light will be off when no power is connected to either the Transmitter or Receiver unit
•The power link light will be on when power is connected directly to either of the units and fed remotely to the other side of the link
Using ARC / Optical Audio Return
Depending on the position of the switch on the front of the HDBaseT Receiver unit, the EL-4KHDBT-KIT-70-ARC-18G allows for audio from either
HDMI (ARC) or Optical (S/PDIF) to be returned from RX to TX when watching a device input locally to the display, or when using the display as a
source device.
Switch Position: See below the combinations of input and output connections on both Transmitter and Receiver units and how audio return is
managed through the EL-4KHDBT-RX-70-ARC-18G:
Please Note: Video and audio from Transmitter to Receiver is not affected by the switch position. Analog out only supports 2ch PCM audio signals.
When using an eARC display, only 2 channel PCM audio is supported.

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data is used by the source to find out what audio
and video resolutions are supported by the display. EDID dip-switch settings are shown below:
