Frequently Asked Questions - KDS-100EN Kramer
How do I set up the Kramer KDS-100EN?
Connect the transmitter to your HDMI source (e.g., Blu-ray player) and the receiver to the display. Link both units using a CAT5e or CAT6 cable, plug in the included 5V power adapters, and turn on your devices. The unit is plug-and-play, so no further configuration is needed.
What is the maximum distance I can extend the HDMI signal?
Using high-quality CAT6 cable, the KDS-100EN can transmit 4K signals up to 70 meters and 1080p signals up to 170 meters. For optimal performance, avoid running the cable alongside high-voltage wiring.
Does the KDS-100EN support 4K video?
Yes, it supports 4K at 60Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling, as well as HDCP 2.3, ensuring compatibility with current 4K and UltraHD content.
Can I extend Ethernet over the same cable?
Yes, the unit provides a bidirectional 100 Mbps Ethernet pass-through over the same twisted-pair cable, allowing you to connect a smart TV, media player, or other networked devices.
Is IR control supported?
Yes, the KDS-100EN includes a bidirectional IR pass-through. You can control the source device from the display side or vice versa using compatible IR emitters and receivers (not included).
What type of cable should I use?
Use CAT5e, CAT6, or higher twisted-pair cable with RJ-45 connectors. For 4K signals, shielded CAT6 or CAT7 is recommended to minimize interference and ensure maximum distance.
How do I know if the device is powered on?
Both the transmitter and receiver have a small LED indicator that lights up when power is applied. If the LED is off, check the power adapter and the power outlet.
What should I do if the output image is intermittent or has sparkles?
First, check that all HDMI and twisted-pair connectors are securely seated. Replace the cable with a known-good one, and ensure the total length is within the specified distances. Also confirm that the power supplies are stable and not defective.
Is the KDS-100EN truly plug-and-play?
Yes, it is fully plug-and-play. No drivers or software are required. After powering and connecting, the HDMI source will be recognized automatically by the display.
How do I update the firmware?
The KDS-100EN typically does not require user-accessible firmware updates. If improvements are available, they can be applied by authorized Kramer service centers. Contact your local Kramer distributor for assistance.
