5.2 Precautions
Before connecting external devices, follow the precautions below.
5.2.1 Installation
●In order to connect cables to this product or to devices connected to this product, first remove static
electricity by touching grounded metal such as racks before handling the cables. Otherwise it may cause a
malfunction.
●Do not place the transmitter on top of the receiver and vice versa.
●Do not block vent holes. Please secure the space above ambient 30 mm/1.18 inches.
●Do not install the HDC in closed space.
If you have to install this product in closed space, install an additional ventilation space in order to keep the
ambient temperature at 40 degrees C/104 degrees F or less. (Exception: Installing to IDK’s Quarter rack,
RM-42HQ) If inadequately vented, the life of parts may be shortened and operations may be affected.
Good example
3 cm/1.18 inches or more
Good example
Bad example
[Figure 5.1] Space required for installation
5.2.2 Cabling
●Read the instruction manuals of the external devices carefully.
●Turn off the transmitter/receiver before connecting cables.
●Insert the cable into the connector firmly and do not give the connector stress.
●Secure the HDMI cable using a cable clamp in order to prevent it from falling off the HDC.

5.2.3 Twisted pair cable for extension
The connector for a long-haul transmission is the same as the 8-core modular connector that is used for
Ethernet. However, it cannot connect to Ethernet since the transmission method is not the same.
To ensure the best performance, select and connect the proper twisted pair cable correctly.
●We recommend a Cat6 UTP/STP cable for the twisted pair cable between the transmitter and receiver.
If using an STP cable, connect the FG connector to a ground source. Otherwise, the shielding feature
does not work correctly. When using a UTP cable, we still recommend using the ground connector.
●For 50 m/ 164.04 feet or shorter transmissions, Cat5e UTP cable can be used.
●The shielded STP cables are less affected by interference or external noise than UTP cables.
●The maximum extension distance of Cat5e/Cat6 UTP/STP cable is the shortest distance of maximum
extension distances of HDC transmitter, HDC receiver and sink device.
●For pin assignments apply T568A or T568B standards for straight through cabling.
●Do not give connection cables a strong pull. The allowable tension of the twisted pair cable is 110 N.
●Do not bend the connection cable at a sharp angle. Keep the bend radius four times of the cable diameter
or larger.
●Do not tie the cable tightly; leave a space allowing the cable to move slightly.
●If you use the same cables, we recommended keeping a distance between the cables or not to place
the cables closely in parallel.
●Keep the twisted pair cable as straight as you can. If you coil the cable, it is easily affected by noise.
●Do not place this product in an electrically noisy environment, since high-speed signals are transmitted.
Particularly when you use a high-output radio around the HDC, video or audio may be interrupted.
●If the distance between the transmitter and receiver is 100 m/328.08 feet or less, cables can be joined
using an RJ-45 plug coupler or wall outlet. Up to two cable couplers are allowed and couplers supporting
Cat6A (10GBase-T) are recommended.
●The table below shows supported extension distance for each twisted pair cable category. Note that the
distance may shorten depending on the actual environment.

Note: If there is a problem in the transmission path, video or audio may be interrupted. Please check the
items above. If the problem still cannot be solved, shorten the length of the twisted pair cable.
5.2.4 Precautions for RS-232C communication
When designing a control program, please note the following points:
●For RS-232C communication, unnecessary data may be input to RS-232C signals when the HDC is
turned off or the link is established.
●The control by RS-232C communication is not available until the link is established.

5.2.5 DVI signals with copyright protection
The HDC does not support the long-distance transmission of DVI signals that are protected by HDCP
(hereafter referred to as “DVI signals with HDCP”).
Use our HDC-D100 extender that supports DVI signals for transmission over twisted pair cable signals
providing HDCP support.

* Depends on the combination of source and sink devices
[Figure 5.5] Configuration example of DVI signals with HDCP
If both source and sink devices have an HDMI connector, HDMI signals are output; if either or both have a
DVI connector, DVI signals are output. However, even if both connectors are for HDMI, sometimes DVI
signals will still be output. Note that signal type to be output cannot be determined only by connector shapes.
Example: DVI signals are output even when a projector with an HDMI connector is connected.
Some source devices will check the EDID of the projector, and if the audio is not compliant, DVI signals will be
output instead of HDMI.

5.2.6 Cascade connection
Distribution amplifiers and multi switchers that are HDCP-compliant repeaters can be connected, and can be
configured in a cascade connection using IDK’s HDC-D100 twisted pair cable extender that supports DVI
signals. However, cascade connection is not available in the following cases:
●HDC-TH/RH100 and another set of HDC-TH/RH100 (IDK’s twisted pair cable extender supporting
HDMI signals)
●A repeater that only supports HDCP pass through (Example: Switchers, boosters)

5.3 Application example
Video and audio digital signals are transmitted from the Blu-ray disc player to the transmitter. The transmitter
sends these signals to the receiver through a twisted pair cable for extension while the receiver outputs the
received video and audio signals from the HDMI output connector to the projector.
Projectors and similar devices can be controlled using control devices such as PCs.
