Extender Kit Installation

Note:

1. Test to make sure the entire installation works properly before pulling cables through ceilings/walls.
2. To achieve maximum distance and performance, 24 AWG solid wire Cat5e/6 cable must be used. The use of stranded wire Cat5e/6 cable or cable with a gauge size higher than 24 AWG will result in shorter extension distance. All N202-Series Cat6 cables are made with 24 AWG solid wire cabling.
3. Make sure the power to all devices you are connecting is turned off prior to installation.

1. Connect the built-in HDMI cable of the transmitter unit to the HDMI source.
2. Optional: Connect an HDMI monitor to the LOCAL port on the B126-1A1-U transmitter using a P568-Series HDMI Cable.
3. Connect the included USB Micro-B Cable between the transmitter unit and a USB port on the source or a USB wall outlet.
4. Connect the RJ45 port on the transmitter to the RJ45 port on the receiver using Cat5e/6 cable.

Note: See the installation diagrams for maximum extension distance and video resolutions.

1. Connect the built-in HDMI cable of the receiver unit to an HDMI monitor input port.
2. Connect the included USB Micro-B cable between the receiver unit and a USB port on the display or a USB wall outlet.
3. Turn on the power to the HDMI source and HDMI display. The green RJ45 LEDs on the transmitter and receiver units will illuminate to indicate they are receiving power. The orange RJ45 LEDs on the transmitter and receiver units will illuminate to indicate they are receiving a signal from the source.
4. If necessary, adjust the Equalization control on the receiver unit to improve the video image.

Note: An improper Equalization setting can cause the monitor to display no picture at all. Try each Equalization setting until an acceptable image is displayed.

Extender/Splitter Installation

Notes:

1. Test to make sure the entire installation works properly before pulling cables through ceilings/walls.
2. To achieve maximum distance and performance, 24 AWG solid wire Cat5e/6 cable must be used. The use of stranded wire Cat5e/6 cable or cable with a gauge size higher than 24 AWG will result in shorter extension distance. All N202-Series Cat6 cables are made with 24 AWG solid wire cabling.
3. Make sure the power to all devices you are connecting is turned off prior to installation.
4. The installation diagram shows the B126-004 local transmitter unit. The B126-002 installation is the same, except there are only 2 remote ports and no local monitor port.

Extender/Splitter Installation

1. Connect the HDMI source to the INPUT port on the B126-002 or B126-004 using a P568-Series HDMI Cable.
2. Optional for B126-004: Connect an HDMI monitor to the LOCAL port on the B126-004 using a P568-Series HDMI Cable.
3. Connect the external power supply to the transmitter unit and plug it into an Eaton Tripp Lite series Surge Protector, PDU or UPS. The green LED illuminates to indicate the unit is receiving power from the external power supply.
4. Using Cat5e/6 cable, connect one of the RJ45 output ports on the transmitter unit to the RJ45 input port on the B126-1A0-U.
5. Connect the B126-1A0-U to a monitor using its built-in HDMI Cable.
6. Connect the included USB Micro-B cable to the port on the B126-1A0-U and a USB port on the display or a USB wall outlet. The green LED will illuminate, indicating the unit is receiving power from the USB Micro-B port.
7. Repeat Steps 4-7 for each additional B126-1A0-U in the installation.
8. Turn on the power to the HDMI source and HDMI displays. The orange RJ45 LEDs illuminate on both transmitter and receivers to indicate the unit is receiving a signal from the source. The screen should now be displayed on the connected monitors.
9. If necessary, use the Equalization control on the B126-1A0-U to adjust the video image.

Note: An improper Equalization setting can cause the monitor to display no picture at all. Try each Equalization setting until an acceptable picture is displayed.

Troubleshooting

If you are unable to get an acceptable image after following the installation instructions, try the troubleshooting tips below.

1. Is the USB Micro-B cable that came with the product connected and plugged into a working power source? For the product to function properly, the transmitter and receiver must be connected to and receiving power from the USB Micro-B cable.
2. Was the power to the HDMI source turned off prior to installation? If not, restart.
3. What resolution are you trying to reach? See the Product Features and Installation sections in this manual for details on maximum distance and resolution. The shorter the extension distance, the higher the resolution you will be able to obtain. If you are not able to get an acceptable image, try lowering your computer's video resolution or adjusting the refresh rate.
4. What type of cabling are you using? Inferior cabling can result in poor performance, so it is important that you use cables that can support the video resolution you are trying to obtain. To achieve maximum distance and resolution, 24 AWG solid-wire UTP cable (such as N202-Series cables) must be used.
5. Test your cables to ensure they are working properly. For example, connect your Cat5e/6 cable between a computer and a network to verify that it establishes a network connection.
6. Do you have any patch panels or other devices in between the transmitter and receiver units? The HDMI over Cat5 extender kits were designed to be connected directly from the transmitter to the receiver via UTP cable. The more connection points between the source and the remote monitor, the more likely signal degradation will occur, causing poor performance. If you have a patch panel or other device in between, it should be removed from the installation.
7. Do you have a splitter, switch or other device in between the computer and transmitter, or in between the receiver and display? The HDMI over Cat5 extender kits were designed for the transmitter to connect directly with the source computer, and for the receiver to connect directly to the display. If you have a splitter, switch, or other device in between, it should be removed from the installation.

Troubleshooting

1. Check your cabling for any damage that may have occurred during installation. If a cable connector is loosened from being pulled through ceilings/walls, or the cable jacket is damaged, causing the wiring to be exposed, you will not be able to achieve maximum performance.
2. Are the transmitter and/or receiver units located in an area that exposes them to elevated temperatures? If the product is overheating, it will not function properly.
