1 Introduction
FPM-8416 is the model name of middle range (up to 14-16km) point-to-point HDMI （or
SDI）video & network transmission device.
Each set of FPM-8416 contains the following items
One transmitter unit, with a camera logo on it.
One receiver unit, with a monitor logo on it.
Two transmitter-antennas.
Two receiver-antennas, which are longer than transmitter-antennas.
Four antenna-cabls.
One TX side HDMI cable(Or one SDI cables,each cable has two headers , one is
SDI header, one is SMA header to connect FPM-8416), and one RX side HDMI
cable.
Four Power cables.
Four Ethernet cables, each cable has two headers, one is RJ45 header, one is 4P
header to connect FPM-8416.
Two TTL-Serial cables, each cable has two headers, one is 5P header to connect
FPM-8416, one is 3P header to connect external device. Voltage is 3.3V.
Two USB-TTL-Serial dongles.
Each kind of cable is packed in its own transparent bag labeled with model name.
The items may subject to change due to different customer specific configurations.
Please refer “FPM-8416 technical specification” for specifications and parameters.

３
One power switch.
One Power LED, it will be on if power is on.
One WAN LED. It will be flashing if the video stream is transmitting/receiving
over wireless channel
Three wireless status LEDs. LED1 will be on if transmitter unit and receiver unit
are both power on and have established wireless connection successfully.LED2
and LED3 are reserved for production testing.
One SMA connector, to connect an antenna .
One Micro USB connector, it’s reserved for production testing.
Left Side
One 5P serial connector to connect the TTL-serial cable, to transmit serial signal,
voltage is 3.3V.
One SMA connector, to connect an antenna. Both left side and right side SMA
connector should connect to antenna before power on.
TWO LAN connectors.
TWO LAN LEDs. Each is above one LAN connector.
--ON: The LAN connector is connected successfully to external device via a LAN
cable.
--Flashing: Data is transmitting on the LAN connector.

3 Setting up FPM-8416 units
3.1 Setting up steps of HDMI or SDI Video transmitting
Connect two antennas to transmitter unit by antenna-cables.
Connect two antennas to receiver unit by antenna-cables.
Connect a video source (video camera, camcorder, etc) to transmitter unit by TX
side HDMI or SDI cable, and connect a monitor to receiver unit by RX side HDMI
cable.
Connect power source to both units by power cables.
Power on both units and devices connecting to them.
After 10~20 seconds, LED1 on both units should be on if wireless connection
has been established successfully.
After a few seconds, the video capturing by the video source on the transmitter
side, should be playing on the monitor on the receiver side.
Note: If you want to see the video on PC, you should first install one software
named Tplayer on yout PC, then use Ethernet cable to connect Lan1
or Lan 2 in FPM-8416 . At the end , click the software and select adapter .
If one serial device is connected to transmitter side, another serial device is
connected to receiver side, and their voltage/data format is configured
according by section 4.3 Serial Data Format, they should be able to
communication with each other now.
3.2 Network Configurations
FPM-8416 units are working as wireless routers, the transmitter and receiver connects two
different network segments: 192.168.1.X and 192.168.2.X

3.3 Setting up steps of Network Communication
Connect two antennas to transmitter unit by antenna-cables.
Connect two antennas to receiver unit by antenna-cables.
Configure the IP/gateway/mask of devices connecting to both units according
by 3.1.
Connect network devices to LAN ports of transmitter/receiver unit.
Connect power source to both units by power cables.
Power on both units and devices connecting to them.
After 10~20 seconds, LED1 on both units should be on if wireless connection
has been established successfully.
Now the devices on transmitter side should be able to communicate with
devices on receiver side.
If one serial device is connected to transmitter side, another serial device is
connected to receiver side, and their voltage/data format is configured
according by section 4.3 Serial Data Format, they should be able to
communication with each other now.
Note: FPM-8416 supports HDMI or SDI video transmitting and network communication
simultaneously. While when HDMI or SDI video is transmitting over wireless channel, there is
only 100kbps throughput left in the channel for LAN1+LAN2.

4.4 Notice
Before powering on units, make sure both SMA has connected to antennas.
Powering on a unit without antenna as load, the PAs inside it may subject to
damage.
Two antennas of one unit should keep certain distance.We commend 1 meter
or larger for transmitter side, 2 meters or larger for receiver side. If two
antennas don’t keep proper distance, the wireless signal may become weaker,
max range may become shorter.
Don’t dismantle or modify FPM-8416 units.
