HDMI Extender 50M with POE and IR
User manual

Product summary
The HDMI Extender with Bi-direconal IR, auto EDID/EQ, and PoE funcon extends high definion video
and audio signals, IR, and power at a distance of up to 164/50m over a single Cat5e/6 cable. Power over
Ethernet (PoE) Technology transmits power over Cat5e/6, allowing either the Transmier or Receiver to be
powered without the use of a power supply. No EDID or EQ adjustments are necessary as the units auto-
macally adjust for compability and gain. This extender set also features a newly redesigned slim and co-
mpact chassis for easy and flexible installaons. This product fully supports DTS-HD and Dolby TrueHD au-
dio formats, and is HDCP compliant. In addion, bidireconal IR pass-through allows for source or display
control. For extending HDMI over a single Cat5e/6 with IR at a long distance, with Power over Ethernet,
the HDMI extender is a great plug and play soluon! It includes two units: transming unit and receiving
unit. The transming unit is used to capture the HDMI input with IR signals and carries the signals via one
cost effecve Cat5e/6 cable. The receiving unit is responsible for equalizing the transmied HDMI signal and
reconstrucng IR signals. It offers the most convenient soluon for HDMI extension over a single Cat5e/6
with Power over Ethernet, and is the perfect soluon for any applicaon.

Connect and operate
(1) Connect a source such as a Blu-Ray Player, game console, A/V Receiver, Cable or Satellite Receiver, etc.to
the HDMI input on the Transming unit.
(2) Connect a display such as an HDTV or HD Projector to the HDMI output on the Receiving unit.
(3) Connect a single Category 5e/6/7 up to 164/50m to the UTP output of the Transming unit, and the
other end to the UTP input of the Receiving unit.
(4) For power, plug in either the Transming unit or receiving unit with the included power supply, opposite
unit will not have to be plugged in as it features Power over Ethernet (PoE).
(5) Power on each device in the same sequence (receiver and transmier will already be powered when
either unit is plugged in).

At this point the display connected should display the source signal connected to the extender set. If no signal
is being displayed, connect a shorter Cat5e/6 cable (jumper or patch cable). If a display is having difficulty re-
ceiving a signal, access the display's menu and adjust the resoluon (lowest to highest unl signal is displayed).
A 24 Hz vercal refresh rate may work beer than 60 Hz or higher. Use the source remote at the receiver
emier to test IR funconality. If the IR remote funcon is not responding, check the emiers to ensure they
are placed correctly and are plugged into the correct IR jacks on the Extender set receiving and transming
units.

IR
IR PASS-THROUGH
The bi-direconal IR system allows you to control the source that is connected to the extender unit, from the
display; or the display from the source, not simultaneously. There are two important things to note when
seng up the IR system:
1. The IR Receiver (IR RX) is always what you point your remote at to send an IR signal. This pigtail is placed at
the display for controlling the source; or at the source for controlling the display.
2. The IR Blaster (IR TX) is what sends the IR signal to what you are intending to control, whether it's the source
or the display. This pigtail is placed at the source; either pointed at the source, or placed on the front panel
of the source, see below for placement ps. Or placed at the display to control the display from the source.

IR BLASTER (TX)
To control the source: Plug IR Blaster into IR TX port of transmier unit; place blaster in front of the IR eye of
the source. To control the display: Plug IR Blaster into IR TX port of receiver unit; place blaster in front of the
IR eye of the display.
Note: Placement of the IR Blaster is important and can result in the IR system not working if improperly placed.
First, locate the IR eye or window on the source
If placing the IR blaster right on the front panel of the source, do not sck right on top of the IR eye or
IR window. The IR signal cannot travel through the double-sided tape on the Blaster. Instead place the blaster
on either side, or on the top or boom of the IR eye or window, with the p of the blaster facing the IR eye or
window. See below for illustraon of where IR signal shoots from on IR Blaster:

IR RECEIVER (RX)
To control the source: Plug IR Receiver into IR RX port of receiver unit; place receiver at or near display.
To control the display: Plug IR Receiver into IR RX port of transmier unit; place receiver in posion where it
is able to receive remote signals.

The HDMI extender is equipped with EDID management; however there is no need to adjust any dip switches
or dials, the unit automacally reads the EDID from the display and save it internally. This feature was created
for the installer in mind, for a plug and play installaon.

Maintenance

1. Do not expose this unit to water, moisture, or excessive humidity.
2. Do not install or place this unit in a built-in cabinet or other confined space without adequate venlaon.
3. To prevent risk of electrical shock or fire hazard, due to overheang do not obstruct unit's venlaon openings.
4. Do not install near any source of heat, including other units that may produce heat.
5. Do not place unit near flames.
6. Only clean unit with a dry cloth.
7. Unplug unit during lightning storms or when not used for an extended period of me. A surge protector is
strongly recommended.
8. Protect the power cord from being walked on or pinched, parcularly at the plugs.
9. Use unit only with accessories specified by the manufacturer.
10. Refer all servicing to qualified personnel.

Trouble shoong
12
1. Best results are usually achieved when the source and display resoluons are the same. If resoluons differ,
the extenders will try to adjust the signal to match the resoluon of the HDTV with the lowest resoluon.
This will result in a picture with a lower resoluon on the other HDTV sets.
2. If you do not get audio and video, access the “setup” menu on the TV to adjust the audio and video sengs.
If the HDMI control circuit cannot establish a handshake, then there usually will be no audio or video in
addion to a blue or black screen with a statement similar to “this protocol not supported” or “weak signal”.
3. If the above menoned messages display, reset the receiver by disconnecng the power supply. You can
also disconnect all of the HDMI and power cables, wait 15 minutes for any voltages to decay and then
reconnect all of the cables.
4. If you are sll encountering issues, aempt the “hot-plug concept. With all of the HDMI cables disconne-
cted, turn on the source and plug in the HDMI cable into its output, then power up the unit and plug the
HDMI cable into its input, finally turn on the display and plug the HDMI cable from the receiver into it. This
acvates all of the devices in corresponding order and results in a signal being plugged into a device that is
on and will aempt to connect the signal.
5. Most of the major source and display manufacturers employ a proprietary control channel to communicate
between devices from the same manufacturer. Somemes this can interfere with the HDMI control circuit
or the authencaon of the signal. Call the manufacturer if you experience this issue. Somemes a player,
an audio/video receiver, or a cable/satellite box may not have the latest soware update, usually this can
be downloaded from the manufacturer's website.
6. If you have problems with the IR control circuit, make sure that the IR RX pigtail is plugged into extender
receiver and pointed at the display, and the IR TX pigtail is aached to the extender sender and pointed
at the source.
