The transmission distances of HDMI over UTP
cables are measured using TE CONNECTIVITY
1427071-6
EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) of cables is
recommended for optimal performance.
To minimize interference of the unshielded
twisted pairs in the CAT5e/6 cable do not run
the HDBaseT/Cat5e/6/6a cabling with or in close
parallel proximity to mains power cables.
Do not substitute or use any other power supply
other than the enclosed unit, or a ELAN approved
replacement.
Do not disassemble either the Transmitter or
Receiver units for any reason. Doing so will void
the manufacturer’s warranty.

Terminating 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. ELAN recommends using a CAT6 cable for your installations, especially when running over longer distances,
in areas of high EMI, or for 4K signal distribution.
Understanding the Receiver signal status lights
The ELAN EL-4KHDBT-40-IR extender solution includes a status LED indicator on the Receiver product to show all connections are active and to
help diagnose possible problems.
Understanding the status lights:
Receiver:
• The HDMI signal link light will be off when there is no connection with a display/sink
• The HDMI link light will be on when there is an active connection with a display
• The HDBaseT link light will be off when there is no CAT cable/active HDBaseT connection on the RJ45 HDBaseT input
• The HDBaseT link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Transmitter/Matrix and Receiver
• The HDBaseT link light will be lit when a CAT cable is connected to the HDBaseT RJ45 output on the Transmitter/Matrix and an active
connection is achieved with the Receiver.
