Figure 3. Wiring the RJ-45 Connector
Follow these instructions to secure the input and output HDMI connectors to the unit with
the LockIt HDMI lacing brackets provided:
a. Plug the HDMI cable into the rear panel connection (1).
b. Loosen the HDMI connection mounting screw from the rear panel enough to allow
the LockIt lacing bracket to be placed over it (2). The screw does not have to be
removed.
c. Place the LockIt lacing bracket on the screw and against the HDMI connector,
then tighten the screw to secure the bracket (3).
ATTENTION:
• Do not overtighten the HDMI connection mounting screw. The shield it
fastens to is very thin and can easily be stripped.
• Ne serrez pas trop la vis de montage du connecteur HDMI. Le blindage
auquel elle est attachée est très fin et peut facilement être dénudé.
d. Loosely place the included tie wrap around the HDMI connector and the LockIt lacing
bracket as shown (4).
e. While holding the connector securely against the lacing bracket, tighten the tie wrap,
then remove any excess length.
