Hardware Installation
1. Power off all devices including your HDMI source
and HDMI display(s).
2. ConnectyourHDMI source devicetotheHDBaseT
Extender/Splitter's HDMI Input connector with
an HDMI cable (HDMI cable not included).
3. Connect your CAT cables between the HDBaseT
Extender/Splitter and HDBaseT Receivers.
4. Connect an HDMI display to the HDMI Output
connectorof the HDBaseTExtender/Splitterusing
an HDMI cable (HDMI cable not included).
5. Connect your HDMI display to the HDBaseT
Receiver's HDMI Out connector with an HDMI
cable (HDMI cable not included).
6. Optional: Connect the IR Receiver Extension Cable
andtheIRBlasterExtensionCabletotheIRinterface
port. This connection is needed only if you need
to control your HDMI devices from the remote
location. See IR Control, on page 10 and 11, for
proper IR connection.
7. Plugthe included power adapterintotheHDBaseT
Extender/Splitter's Power Jack, then plug the
power adapter into a reliable power outlet.
Note: The HDBaseT Receivers do not need power
adapters, they can be powered from the Extender/
Splitter over CAT cable with PoC technology.
8. Power on your HDMI source device and HDMI
display. The extender is ready for use.

ApplicationDiagram
The application diagram shows the most typical input
and output devices used with the Extender/Splitter.
Figure 4: Application Diagram
CAT Cable Wiring
We suggest both RJ-45 connectors be wired identically
using T568B wiring standard for the best performance
and compatibility.

IR Control
Provides IR control of the connected devices. The IR
feature is bidirectional so either the source device or the
display device(s) can be remotely controlled.
Controlling the Display Device(s)
1. Connect an IR Receiver Extension Cable to the IR In
port of the HDBaseT Extender/Splitter.
2. Connect an IR Blaster Extension Cable to the IR Out
port on each HDBaseT Receiver.
3. Point the IR Blaster Extension Cable's IR eye in line
with the display's IR window.
Figure 5: Display Device IR Control Connection Diagram

Controlling the Source Device
1. Connect an IR Blaster Extension Cable to the IR Out
port of the HDBaseT Extender/Splitter.
2. Point the IR Blaster Extension Cable's IR eye in line
with the source device's IR window.
3. Connect an IR Receiver Extension Cable to the IR In
port on each HDBaseT Receiver.
Figure 6: Source Device IR Control Connection Diagram
Note:
The IR ALL IN / IR LOOP IN will relay the received IR
signal to all the HDBaseT outputs whereas the IR IN
connectors associated with each HDBaseT output will
only relay the IR signal to its respective receiver. The IR
LOOP IN can also be connected to the IR LOOP OUT of
another Extender/Splitter when two or more units (up to
a maximum of five) are connected in a cascade mode
while using only a single IR detector at the start of the
cascade connection.
The IR OUT connector will output the IR signals received
from any of the HDBaseT receivers, so as to allow control
of a source from any of the remote receivers.
