If you only have one display device then that’s all you need to do to get the signal working. The installation consists of taking the devices out of the package, plugging power into the transmitter and receiver (and locating them near your source and display devices), plugging in your Cat6 cable, and plugging in HDMI cables at each end. To do this you would need to purchase another set of IR extension cables. It can also be set up to transmit IR signals both ways if you have devices at both ends that need to be controlled from the other end. The IR ports on both devices can be used to send an infrared remote control signal from the receiving end to a device mounted at the transmitting end or from the transmitting end to a device at the receiving end. The S/PDIF digital audio output allows you to break out the audio from the HDMI signal to feed a receiver or sound bar if you don’t want the sound coming from the TV’s speakers. This would be convenient for feeding a signal to multiple TVs in a house or in a business if you want to display a looping slide of announcements or videos. The first receiver can be up to 230 feet from the transmitter any further receivers can be up to 165 feet from each other. The RX OUT port on the receiver is for looping to another receiver, up to a total of 10 in the whole chain.

This is convenient for being able to monitor the source, to know what you are sending, or for being able to see the same signal in both places (both an indoor and outdoor entertainment space for instance). The HDMI output port on the TX unit is used for looping the signal out to a monitor or TV at the transmitting end. The other side of the RX unit has a DC input jack, an RX OUT RJ45 port, an S/PDIF optical audio connector, an HDMI output port, and an IR IN port and an IR OUT port. The receiver (RX) has a Reset button, a S/PDIF-ARC audio switch, an RX IN RJ45 connector, and a power LED. On the other side there is a DC input jack, a pair of HDMI ports (input and output), an IR IN port and an IR OUT port. On one of the sides of the transmitter (TX) unit there is an RJ45 TX OUT ethernet connection, a Reset button, and a power LED. Each device needs to be powered to work so there are two power supplies included. Bi-directional IR: Allows source unit control from display and display control from source (additional IR receiver and emitter required for full bi-directional functionality)īoth the transmitter and receiver are small, square, dark gray aluminum boxes that look identical except for the markings and input/output connectors.
