Thank you for purchasing this product. For optimum performance and safety, please read these
instructions carefully before connecting, operating or adjusting this product. Please keep this
manual for future reference.
SURGE PROTECTION DEVICE RECOMMENDED
This product contains sensitive electrical components that may be damaged by electrical spikes,
surges, electric shock, lightning strikes, etc. Use of surge protection systems is highly
recommended in order to protect and extend the life of your equipment.
SAFTY NOTICE
1. The transmission distances of HDMI over UTP cables are measured using TE CONNECTIVITY
1427071-6
2. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for CAT cables is recommended for better performance.
3. DO NOT use 568A/568B standard mixed CAT cable (cross-over cable) because there are 2
pairs swapped, this will make POE OVER-CURRENT and damage POE components. Please
use straight-through CAT cable (both RJ45 headers are 568A or 568B standard).
4. It is recommended that power up the device after connections of source, sink and CAT cable.
5. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in CAT cable, do not
run HDBaseT / Zone Cat5e/6/6a cabling with or in close parallel proximity to mains power
cables. Shielded CAT cables can be used to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long
transmission.
6. Because the quality of the CAT cables has the major effect on how long the transmission limit
can achieve and how good is the received picture quality, the actual transmission range is
subject to one‟s choice of CAT cables.
7. Do not substitute or use any other Power Supply other than the enclosed unit, or a Factor
Electronics approved Replacement Part. Doing so will void the warranty and potentially expose
the user to dangerous voltages resulting in an electrical shock.
8. Do not disassemble the device for any reason. Doing so will void the manufacturer‟s warranty.
Also, our unique case is an integral part of the design of this unit and is responsible for cooling
and circuitry shielding. Any modifications to this case will potentially cause malfunction and
product failure.
9. Do not expose the device to water, moisture, or liquids. Possible electric shock may result as
well as failure of the unit to operate.
