HARDWARE INSTALLATION
1. Power off the HDMI source and display.
2. Connect an HDMI cable from the HDMI source to the HDMI IN port of the HDX-POE transmitter.
3. Connect an IR emitter (optional) to the IR OUT port on the transmitter.
4. Connect the HDX-POE transmitter to the HDX-POE receiver using a CAT5e/6 cable (up to 150ft).
5. Connect an IR receiver (optional) to the IR IN port on the receiver.
6. Connect an HDMI cable from the HDMI OUT port on the HDX-POE receiver to the HDMI display.
7. Connect the power on the HDX-POE transmitter plugging in their power adapters (12VDC2A) or provide 12VDC
input from the rear DC input port.
NOTE: If the RX side has connected DC adapter, TX can get the DC power over the CAT5e/CAT6 cable, so leave
DC input port empty. Only 1 power supply is required for both units. (In certain cases, if the receiver has too
much drop off power, we recommend to connect a 12V DC power supply to each receiver.
8. Power on the HDMI source, displays and speakers. The RX will read the EDID from the monitor, and then pass
the data into the TX automatically.
INTALLATION NOTE: Do not stack receiver units. Stacking inhibits heat distribution.
INTRODUCTION
The RK8-HDX-POE is the perfect solution for
extending HDMI signals to a remote location up to
250 feet away. It is the ideal way to consolidate up to
eight workstation computers into one location. It is
fully compatible with MAC, PC and LINUX HDMI
standards. Up to eight displays can be extended
easily from a rack without the mess or expense of
multiple extenders. Rather than buy multiple
extenders for rack components, and having to find
power strips or numerous power outlets for the
adapters, the SmartAVI rack series of extenders
allows for up to eight inputs and eight outputs with
only one power supply.
