Product Features
Before installation, please check the following settings of your
source(s) and TV/monitor(s):
1. Set display to 60 Hz. Double-check factory settings, as
default can be set to a lower frequency (Hz) than advertised.
2. Ensure the input setting of your monitor is set at HDMI 2.0.
Some displays may have default setting at HDMI 1.4.
3. Verify your monitor has the HDR feature enabled. Some
displays may have this feature disabled as a factory setting.
4. Check if the Ultra HD (UHD) Deep Color setting is enabled on
your TV/monitor. Confirm with your TV/monitor manufacturer
which HDMI ports support UHD Deep Color.
Note for B127A-004-BH, B127A-004-BHPH3 and B127A-008-BH:
To connect a local monitor to your installation, the UHD Deep Color
setting may need to be disabled on your local TV/monitor (depending
on make) to achieve 4K @ 60 Hz resolution.

Installation
Standard Splitter Kit Installation
(2-Port Models)
Notes:
1) Test to ensure the entire installation works properly before pulling
cables through ceilings/walls.
2) To achieve maximum distance and performance, use 24 AWG solid
wire Cat6 cable. Using stranded wire Cat6 cable or cable with a gauge
(AWG) size higher than 24 AWG will result in shorter extension distance.
Higher gauge cabling, such as 26 AWG, has a more limited transmission
capability than lower gauge cabling. All Tripp Lite N202-Series Cat6
cables are made with 24 AWG solid wire cabling.
3) The first installation diagram shows a B127A-002-BHPH2 kit, which
includes a B127A-002-BH splitter unit and two B127A-1P0-PH receiver
units. The second diagram shows the B127A-002-BH splitter used with
an included B127A-1P0-PH receiver and B127A-1A0-BH receiver (sold
separately at tripplite.com).
4) External power is not required for remote receiver units because of
Power over Cable (PoC) technology incorporated in the transmitter units.
