OVEVIEW
The RKT8-HDX100 is the perfect solution for extending
HDMI signals to a remote location up to 150 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 nd power strips or
numerous power outlets for the adapters, the SmartAVI
rack series of extenders allows for up to eight inputs and
eight outputs and one power supply.

1. Power off the HDMI source and display.
2. Connect an HDMI cable from the HDMI source to the HDMI IN port of the RKT8-HDX100 transmitter.
3. Optionally connect an HDMI cable from the HDMI OUT port of the RKT8-HDX100 transmitter to the local HDMI display.
4. Connect the RKT8-HDX100 transmitter to the HDX-RX100 receiver using a CAT5e/6 cable (up to 150ft).
5. Connect an HDMI cable from the HDMI OUT port on the HDX-RX100 receiver to the HDMI display
6. Connect the power on the RKT8-HDX100 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
7. 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.
