500753 HDMI / RS232 over IP Extender Kit with PoE
Quick Installation Guide
Overview
The HDMI / RS232 over IP Extender Kit with PoE (500753) allows HDMI equipment to be
connected up to 330ft (100m) @ 1080p via one (1) Cat5e/6 unshielded twisted pair cable in a
point-to-point configuration. Point-to-multipoint and multipoint-to-multipoint is possible by
connecting several Transmitters and Receivers to the same Ethernet network. The Transmitter
(500753-TX) and Receiver (500753-RX) also support PoE (PD) if used with a PoE (PSE) Ethernet
Switch. The kit comes with one (1) Transmitter and one (1) Receiver. The IR Emitter and IR
Sensor, if required, may be purchased separately for IR based remote control applications.
For the point-to-multipoint and multipoint-to-multipoint configuration the Ethernet Switch must
have Gigabit ports and DHCP Server capability and additionally support the IGMP communication
protocol for the multipoint-to-multipoint case. MuxLab recommends using the Cisco SG300
Series Managed Switches.
The MuxLab ProDigital Network Controller (500811) is available to simplify the configuration and
utilization of the 500753 and other MuxLab IP based products via an Ethernet web interface.
Applications
Applications include commercial and residential AV systems, classroom projector systems, digital
signage, boardroom systems, collaborative PC systems, and medical information systems.
Installation
1. Identify the connectors on the Transmitter and Receiver as indicated on the product labels.
2. Verify that the distance between the HDMI Transmitter and Receiver is within MuxLab
specifications (see Specifications table for further details).
3. To install the Transmitter:
3a. Connect the Transmitter to the HDMI video source with an HDMI compliant cable.
3b. If the application is point-to-point, then connect one (1) length of Cat 5e/6 (or
higher) grade UTP cable to the RJ45 LINK connector on the Transmitter. If
transmitting over the network, use an Ethernet Switch between Transmitter and
Receiver.
4. To install the Receiver:
4a. Connect the Receiver to the HDMI display equipment with an HDMI compliant
cable.
4b. If the application is point-to-point, then connect one (1) Cat 5e/6 cable (or higher)
coming from the Transmitter, to the RJ45 LINK connector on the Receiver. If
transmitting over the network, use an Ethernet Switch between Transmitter and
Receiver.

5. If the configuration is a point-to-multipoint or multipoint-to-multipoint:
5a. You will need to use an Ethernet Switch with Gigabit ports and DHCP Server support.
In addition IGMP Protocol support is required for the multipoint-to-multipoint case.
Verify that the Ethernet Switch is configured correctly and that the DHCP Server
is enabled and that the IGMP Protocol is enabled for multipoint-to-multipoint
applications. See the operating manual for more information about configuring the
Ethernet Switch.
5b. Connect all Transmitters and Receivers to the Ethernet Switch.
5c. Use the DIP Switches to select a unique Device ID for each Transmitter present on the
network and configure each Receiver Device ID to the corresponding selected
Transmitter.
Note: This step is not necessary if the MuxLab ProDigital Network Controller (500811)
is used.
6. Powering the Transmitter or Receiver via an external power supply is only necessary where
PoE (PSE) is unavailable. If PoE is unavailable, connect a 5 VDC power supply (sold
separately) to each Receiver and to an AC power outlet. Next connect each Transmitter in the
same manner. If power is present, the green power LED on each Transmitter and Receiver
will illuminate.
Note: Power ‘ON’ the HDMI / RS232 over IP Extender only after all connections have
been made.
7. Power ‘ON’ the HDMI equipment and verify the image quality.
8. This product supports IR pass-thru control. If infrared remote control is needed to control the
Source equipment from the Display, connect the IR Sensor (sold separately) to the 3.5mm
Stereo Jack of the Receiver and the IR Emitter (sold separately) to the 3.5mm Mono Jack of
the Transmitter.
Note: You can differentiate the IR Sensor and the IR Emitter by looking at the 3.5 mm
plug. The IR Sensor is using a Stereo Plug (3 Contacts) and the IR Emitter a
mono plug (2 Contacts).
9. Position the IR Sensor so that it is directed at the hand-held remote control. For a clear IR
signal reception, aim the hand-held remote control to the top of the IR Sensor enclosure.
10. Position the IR Emitter as close as possible to the source’s IR Sensor (i.e. DVD player). For a
clear IR signal reception, the IR Emitter can be glued on the source’s IR Sensor. The IR
Emitter’s signal is transmitted from the side of the enclosure.
11. This product supports RS232 bidirectional communication. On the Transmitter, the RS232
port is configured as a DCE; and on the Receiver as a DTE. Please connect your RS232 cable
accordingly. The default settings are 9600, N, 8, 1.
12. To send an RS232 packet to a specific device, you need to put the IP address in front of the
packet. This communication is meant to be machine to machine; and hexadecimal codes
must be used. For example, to send the message “Hello” to a device having the
192.168.168.55 IP address, one must send the hexadecimal string: 0xC0 0xA8 0xA8 0x37
0x48 0x65 0x6c 0x6c 0x6f. (or “192 168 168 55 H e l l o” in hexadecimal).
13. The following diagram illustrates a typical point-to-point LAN configuration.
