How to Install KanexPro HDMI 150m Extender over HDBaseT w/ Loop Out

• Place the transmitter near your HDMI source (Blu-ray player, computer, or media player) and connect the source’s HDMI output to the transmitter’s HDMI input. If you need a local display, connect a monitor to the transmitter’s loop-out HDMI port.
• Run a single CAT6/CAT5e cable from the transmitter to the receiver location. Ensure the cable is rated for the required distance and avoid routing through power cables or sources of interference for optimal performance.
• Connect the receiver’s HDMI output to the remote display or projector. Use the appropriate HDMI cable to link the display to the receiver, ensuring a secure connection.
• Provide power as required. If you have a PoE-enabled network, you can power the transmitter or receiver via PoE (check your switch or injector). If PoE is not available or you prefer a traditional setup, attach the included AC adapters to the respective units as specified by the product’s documentation.
• Power on all components and configure any necessary EDID settings on the source device if you encounter handshake issues. Test the system by playing a high-quality source to verify video, audio, and loop-out functionality on the local and remote displays.
