The product is compatible with any HDBaseT
TM
third party devices.

Power Supply Options
TPS-97 extenders are compatible with IEEE 802.3af standard - Power over Ethernet (PoE) -
and can receive power over the TPS line.
The extender can be powered by any of the following ways:
1. Local adaptor 2. Remote power injector 3. Matrix board

TPS-TX/RX90 and TPS-TX/RX95 are not PoE-compatible, thus not able to remote power
the WP/FP-HDMI-TPS-RX97 series and vica versa. WP/FP-UMX-TPS-RX97 series contains
PoE-compatible remote power function (PD, Powered Device), RX95 and TX95 extenders can
be remote powered only by each other.
¢ Warranty void if damage occurs due to the usage of a different power source.
Compatible Devices
TPS-97 extenders are compatible with all Lightware devices with TPS port except the TPS-90
series.

Bidirectional Pass-through Data Lines
The direction of the video extension is xed
from TX towards RX but the pass-through data
lines are bidirectional*. It means the RS-232,
IR, Ethernet source and sink devices can be
connected either to the TX or to the RX and the
signal is transmitted to the other extender.
* In fact IR transmission is uni-directional but
the extender has two IR channels with different
directions.
RS-232
Third party devices with standard RS-232 port are supported as the extenders work in „pass-
through” mode. TX and RX provide 3-pole Phoenix connector. The RS-232 options – the baud
rate and the parity bits are set on the third party devices and it can be anything. The extenders
support any kind of serial settings.

Please nd the RS-232 device type in its user guide; the extenders work as DCE devices.
Ethernet
The Ethernet port on the RX or on TX can be connected to a LAN hub, switch or router with a
LAN cable. The other side behaves as an Ethernet uplink port. The extenders support 10/100
Mbps data transfer rate. The Ethernet port has auto crossover function. It is able to recognize
and handle both cable types: patch and cross TP cables.
TPS Link Modes
The TPS working mode between the transmitter and the receiver parties is determined by
the mode set in them. Both parties inuence on the setting which determines the nal TPS
transmission mode. The following TPS modes are dened:
Long reach (LR): Longer CATx cable length, less bandwidth (limited resolution). The
LPPF mode is not available in LR TPS link mode.
HDBaseT
TM
(HDBT): more bandwidth (higher resolutions), shorter CATx cable length. If
no video present, the units change to LPPF mode automatically.
Low Power Partial Functionality (LPPF): Only Ethernet, RS-232 and IR are extended.
Toggling between TPS link modes
The toggle switch on the extenders can
be used to toggle between the LR and
Auto TPS modes. If both units have Auto
state and there is valid video signal on
the transmitter the common mode will
be HDBT. If the video signal disappears
devices go into LPPF mode.
TPS mode between an extender and a
port of a matrix board
If an extender and a TPS matrix board are paired the board forces the extender to use the
settings of the matrix. The extender’s TPS mode switch has no effect.

Always use the Auto mode with third-party devices.

Infrared (IR)
One emitter and one detector is enough for remote controlling one IR sink device. If there
is an IR sink device to be controlled next to the TX and the other one is next to the RX, two
emitter-detector pairs are needed. The IR emitter and the detector have standard 3.5 mm TRS
(jack) connectors. The emitter’s plug has two poles (mono) and the detector’s plug has three
poles (stereo).

The emitter and detector pair is not supplied with the product, it can be ordered from
Lightware separately.

Assembly Guide of the Bare Extender and the Front Plate
¢ Always apply ESD-protection during the assembling. Electric
discharge may harm the electric parts of the device.
¢ Please unplug all cables from the device before performing the
steps described below.
The following assembly steps can be applied for the following extender models and front plates:
Model name Type Description
WP-HDMI-TPS-RX97 bare Extender WP-HDMI-TPS-RX97 receiver device
WP-HDMI-TPS EU plate Accessory Front plate suitable for Double EU wall box
WP-HDMI-TPS UK plate Accessory Front plate suitable for Double UK wall box
WP-HDMI-TPS US plate Accessory Front plate suitable for Double US wall box
WP-HDMI-TPS FP-8AT plate Accessory Front plate suitable for Legrand 8AT oor box
Assembly Steps
1. Place the front plate to the bare extender device like it is shown on the gure below. Place
the cutout of the front plate under the HDMI ange screw.
2. Suit the front plate like it shall be lying down the device.
3. Place and screw the provided two pieces M3x12 PZ at head black screws into the
screw holes shown in the gure below. It requires a PZ1 screwdriver.
4. Turn the device upside down.
5. Place provided four pieces M3 bright zinc plated toothed washers to the screws. After
it is done, place and screw four pieces M3 metric nuts onto the built-in screws with a
5,5mm socket wrench key.

options to the wall plates / oor plates in our Mounting Options and Accessories for
WP/FP-HDMI-TPS-97 series Extenders assembly guide on the website www.lightware.com.
Typical Application
Ventilation
¢ To ensure the correct ventilation and avoid overheating
mount the extender into an industrial standard switch/outlet
box. Let enough free space in front of the appliance and
keep the ventilation holes free.
