Main Features
High Quality Picture - No Signal Loss and Digital Noise Free
Our DV-HXT-2 is built to deliver the highest quality picture preserving the native
resolutions of video sources without signal loss. At the same time, digital noise that
may affect the picture quality will be eliminated. Due to the nature of the digital
signals and passing through multiple connections, it is important to eliminate the
digital noises and boost the signal strength to preserve/enhance the video signal
quality.
Signal Amplification for signal reliability and long length signal transmission.
DV-HXT-2 gets internal or external DC 5V power to run an internal chipset, which
was designed to transmit high quality visual signal to long distance.
HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection)
DV-HXT-2 fully supports HDCP

Set up and Video Connection
Step 1: Ensure the digital video/audio source and display is turned off
Step 2: Connect digital HDMI cable
Step 3: Connect a UTP cable to Digital RGB port of TX module and connect the
other end of the cable to Digital RGB port of RX module
Step 4: Connect a second UTP cable to DDC port of TX module and connect the
other end of the cable to DDC port of RX module
Step 5: Connect power adapter to transmitter (TX) module of DV-HXT-2
Step 6: Connect power cord to the power adapter and plug in to power outlet
Step 7: Power up the display
Step 8: Power up the source
Step 9: Set 1080p or highest resolution
Step 10: Set up rotary switch value referencing to EQ switch set up table according
to UTP cable length
UTP Cable connection
DV-HXT-2 follows TIA/EIA-568-B specification.
Please refer to the picture and table for correct connection.
For the high resolution above 1080p or WUXGA, CAT6E 550MHz unshielded solid
core by Liberty Wire & Cable is recommended.
Connection of UTP Cable
No matter what the length is, cut two UPT cables to exactly the same length
Use two cables as a pair: different colors are useful

EQ SW set up table according to UPT cable length
Dip switch position “0” stands for the strongest HDMI signal level for the longest
possible transmission length while “7” stands for the weakest HDMI signal level for
the shortest transmission length.
Please adjust the signal level from “7” to “0” and stop turning the rotary switch
whenever the audio/video is playing normally at receiver box first.
Tip: If you see blinking image or no image on the display, please adjust the rotary control switch to
a larger number.
If you see pixel noise on the image on the display, please adjust the rotary control switch to a
smaller number.
If the rotary switch adjustments above do not provide a satisfactory image, please
set up transmitter and receiver rotary control switches as shown below.
NOTE: Rotary Switch settings “8” and “9” are not used.

Caution:
* EQ switch set up value is made up based on CAT-5E UTP cable/1080p and
therefore the value may be different when you use CAT6 cable or pass patch
panels
* Minimum CAT cable length should be longer than 25ft (depending on cable quality)
Do not use with network hubs or routers, it will damage the units.
