5. Setup Instructions
Follow these steps to properly set up your HDMI Extender Kit:
- Connect the TX (Transmitter) Unit: Plug the HDMI connector of the TX unit into the HDMI output port of your source device (e.g., laptop, PC, DVD player, gaming console).
- Connect the RX (Receiver) Unit: Plug the HDMI connector of the RX unit into the HDMI input port of your display device (e.g., TV, projector).
- Connect Ethernet Cable: Connect a single Cat6, Cat7, or Cat8 Ethernet cable between the RJ45 port of the TX unit and the RJ45 port of the RX unit. Ensure the cable is wired according to the IEEE-568B standard for optimal performance. We recommend using high-performance pure Cat6/7/8 cables at least 1 meter in length.
- Power the Units: Connect the provided USB power cables to the DC 5V ports on both the TX and RX units. Plug the other end of the USB cables into a 5V USB power source (e.g., USB port on your TV, computer, or a USB power adapter).
Note on Power Over Cable (POC): If you are using a high-quality Cat6 cable longer than 10 meters, the RX unit may draw power directly from the Ethernet cable. In this scenario, only the TX unit requires a USB power connection.
- Power On Devices: Ensure all connected devices (source, display, and extender units) are powered on.
- Select Input: Select the correct HDMI input on your display device.

6. Operating Instructions
Once all connections are made and devices are powered on, the HDMI extender will automatically detect the signal and adjust for optimal display. No additional software or drivers are required.
- Automatic Adjustment: The extender is designed to automatically adjust video and audio specifications based on the length of the Ethernet cable (1-40 meters) to ensure the best possible display quality.
- Length Button (if applicable): Some models may feature a "Length button" for 12-level automatic and manual adjustment of gears. If your unit has this button, you can press it to fine-tune the signal for specific cable lengths if automatic adjustment does not yield desired results. Refer to the markings on your specific unit for its location and function.
- Audio and Video Synchronization: The extender ensures synchronized transmission of both audio and video signals.
