IMPORTANT NOTICE!
We highly recommend using only Kramer UNIKAT cables with these products. If using 3rd party shielded CAT-6A cables, both ends of the
shield must be soldered to the connectors for the products to function properly. Do not use any jumpers, unshielded wall plates or mid-
span cable connections. These extenders are not compatible with HDBaseT technologies. Prior to signal extension, ensure that the
extension line cable is lying straight and not coiled.

Step 3: Mount SID-X1N
Install SID-X1N using one of the following methods:
•Attach the rubber feet and place the unit on a flat surface.
•Fasten a bracket (included) on each side of the unit and attach it to a flat surface
(see www.kramerav.com/downloads/SID-X1N).
•Mount the unit in a rack using the recommended rack adapter
(see www.kramerav.com/product/SID-X1N).
•Ensure that the environment (e.g., maximum ambient temperature &
air flow) is compatible for the device.
•Avoid uneven mechanical loading.
•Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used for avoiding overloading of the circuits.
•Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
Step 4: Connect inputs and outputs
Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your SID-X1N.
To achieve specified extension distances, use the recommended Kramer cables available at www.kramerav.com/product/SID-X1N.
Using third-party cables may cause damage!
Step 5: Connect power
Connect the power cord to SID-X1N and plug it into the mains electricity.
