1x4 HDMI1.4 Splitter Over 50M CAT5e/6 Cable Extender

I.  Introduction

 The Splitter is a product for splitting and extending your HDMI signal over long distances to a compatible display. 

It is designed to convert the HDMI signal and transmit by CAT5E/6 cable. It also supports Transferring Bidirectional 

Infrared control signal together with the HDMI signal, so you can control the Source in the Sink side which is 50 meters 

outside, also you can control the Sink in the Source side which is 50 meters outside using the Splitter. 

II.  Features 

1. Compliant with HDMI1.3, HDCP 1.2 and DVI 1.0. 

2. Full HD support: 1080p@60Hz@24 bit/pixels. 

3. HDMI local loop out for HDMI input. 

4. Supports LPCM 7.1CH, Dolby True HD, and DTS-HD Master Audio. 

5. Operates for TMDS clock frequencies up to 165MHz.

 6. Use single CAT-5E/6 cable to substitute HDMI cable to achieve long distances transmission. 

7. UTP cable termination follows the standard of IEEE-568B. 

8. Supports EDID control via EDID selector.  

9. Transfer Bidirectional Infrared control signal together with the  HDMI signal.

TX EDID Description

Under normal circumstances, a source device (digital and analog) will require information about a connected 
device/display to assess what resolutions and features are available. The source can then cater its output to 
send only resolutions and features that are compatible with the attached device/display. This information is called 
EDID (Extended Display Information Data) and a source device can only accept and read one EDID from a connected 
device/display. Likewise, the source can only output one resolution for use by a connected device/display.The EDID 
switch allows for EDID learning or to pre-set an EDID to encourage a “handshake” between the display and source. 

Attention: Please confirm the extender is working normally, when you want to modify the new EDID to source, Toggle 
the EDID switcher to the corresponding number first, then plug the Transmitter power again. The extender will send the 
new EDID to source.

RX Equalizer Description

Recommended EQ setting
Position                      Cable Length
0 (MIN)-2                    under 15m (49.5ft)
3-4                              15-30m (49.5 ft - 99ft)
5-6                              30-40m (99ft - 132ft)
7                                  (MAX)40-50m(132ft – 164ft)

       If you see flickering or blinking image on the display, adjust the EQ  switch to improve the cable skew. MAX stands for the strongest HDMI signal level for the longest possible transmission length while MIN stands for the weakest HDMI signal level for short transmission length. Adjust the signal level from MIN to MAX until desired video quality is displayed. 

CONNECT AND OPERATE

1. Connect a source such as a Blu-Ray Player, game console, A/V Receiver, Cable or Satellite Receiver, etc. to the HDMI input on the Transmitting unit.

2. Connect a display such as an HDTV or HD Projector to the HDMI output on every Receiving unit.

3. Connect single Cat5e/6 up to 164ft/50m to the output of the Transmitting unit, and the other end to the input of the every Receiving unit.

4. For power, plug both the Transmitting unit and Receiving unit with the included power supplies.

5. Power on each device in the same sequence (receiver and transmitter will already be powered when either unit is pl ed in.)

At this point the display connected should display the source signal connected to the extender set. If no signal is displayed, check the receiver EQ switcher. If a display is having difficulty receiving a signal, see EDID section and perform EDID learning or access the display’s menu and adjust the resolution (lowest to highest until signal is displayed). A 24 Hz vertical refresh rate may work better than 60 Hz or higher. Use the source remote at the receiver emitter to test IR functionality.  If the IR remote function is not responding, check the emitters to ensure they are placed correctly and are pl ed into the correct IR jacks on the Extender set receiving and transmitting units.

Wideband IR(30KHz---60KHz) introduction

  R BLASTER (TX)

To control the source:  Plug IR Blaster into IR TX port of transmitter unit; place blaster in front of the IR eye of the source.

To control the display:  Plug IR Blaster into IR TX port of receiver unit; place blaster in front of the IR eye of the display.

IR RECEIVER (RX)

To control the source:  Plug IR Receiver into IR RX port of receiver unit; place receiver at or near display.

To control the display:  Plug IR Receiver into IR RX port of transmitter unit; place receiver in position where it is able to receive remote signals.
