Frequently Asked Questions - AT-HD4-SI40SR Atlona

What is the maximum transmission distance of the AT-HD4-SI40SR?

The AT-HD4-SI40SR can extend an audio/video signal up to 40m (130ft) at 1080p over a single CAT5e/6/7 cable.

Does it support 4K resolution?

No, the maximum supported resolution is 1080p or 1920x1200. It does not support 4K.

How do I set up the extender?

Connect the HDMI source to the transmitter's HDMI In, connect the display to the receiver's HDMI Out, run a CAT5e/6/7 cable between the transmitter and receiver using 568B termination, and power both units with the included 5V power supplies.

What audio formats are supported?

It supports Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio up to 7.1 channels.

How do I adjust the equalization?

Use the EQ dial on the receiver. Rotate from MIN (short distance) to MAX (long distance) until the signal stabilizes.

What is the EDID learning mode and how do I use it?

EDID learning mode (dial position 7) copies the display's EDID to the transmitter. To use: unplug both power and CAT cables, connect the display directly to the transmitter's HDMI In, set dial to 7, power the transmitter, and wait for the signal light to dim and relight.

Can I use the extender with a wall plate or patch panel?

Yes, but if you experience signal issues, bypass the wall plate or patch panel to minimize loss, as they can degrade the signal.

How do I clean the device?

Unplug the device and wipe with a damp cloth. Do not use cleaning fluids or aerosols.

What should I do if there is no audio or video?

Check that all cables are properly connected and certified. Ensure CAT cables use 568B termination. Adjust the EQ dial on the receiver. In the source menu, turn off auto resolution and select a specific resolution. For 3D issues, set the EDID dial to mode 4 or 6.

The AT-HD4-SI40SR comes with a 3-year limited warranty from Atlona Technologies.
