How to Install Eaton Tripp Lite HDMI over Cat5/6 Extender Kit

• Plan your layout: Determine the positions of the HDMI source (such as a Blu-ray player, computer, or media player) and the display (TV, monitor, or projector). Identify a suitable route for the Cat5/6 link cable between the transmitter and receiver, keeping within the 150-foot maximum distance for optimal signal integrity.
• Connect the HDMI source to the transmitter: Use a standard HDMI cable to connect the HDMI output of your source device to the HDMI input on the transmitter module. Make sure the source is powered on and set to an output resolution compatible with your display.
• Link the transmitter to the receiver: Run a high-quality Cat5/6 cable from the transmitter’s Cat5/6 output port to the receiver’s Cat5/6 input. For best results, avoid running the cable parallel to power lines or in high-interference areas to minimize cross-talk and signal loss.
• Connect the receiver to the display: Use another HDMI cable to connect the receiver’s HDMI output to the display’s HDMI input. Ensure the display is powered on and set to the appropriate HDMI input source to receive the signal.
• Power up and test: Power the transmitter and receiver units according to the included power options. Once powered, test the system by playing content from the source to confirm video and audio are transmitted correctly and that EDID settings are properly negotiating with the display.
• Fine-tune and secure: If you encounter any resolution negotiation issues or color mismatches, adjust the source resolution or display settings to align with the extender’s supported modes. Secure cables and keep power adapters organized to maintain a clean installation.
