Important! Before starting the installation, please ensure that all devices are powered off.
The following steps are for a basic installation using HDMI and USB equipment in a standard KVM
extension installation, if you are using DVI equipment, please substitute the HDMI cables for DVI to
HDMI cables where required.
Please Note: The maximum HDMI cable length which can be used in/out is 5m with resolutions up to 4K
30Hz, or 2m with 4K resolutions with 60Hz refresh rate.
1. Connect your HDMI equipped Computer to the Transmitter unit using an HDMI cable.
2. Connect your Computer to the USB-H port of the Transmitter unit using a USB Type A/A male/male
cable and make sure that the USB-D/USB-H Select Switch (8) is set to Host.
3. Connect one end of the Cat.5e (max. length 90m) or Cat.6/7 cable (max. length 100m) to the
HDBaseT OUT port on the Transmitter and the other end to the HDBaseT port of the Receiver. Solid
core installation cable is recommended.

USB
The Transmitter and Receiver both feature a USB Type A Female port labelled USB-H (USB Host) for
connection to a PC using a USB Type A Male/Male cable and two USB Type A Female ports labelled
USB-D (USB Device) for the connection of basic USB devices such as Keyboard, Mouse, Pen drive or
Printer – Web Cameras are not supported!

ports on either unit.

required to power cycle the Extender by disconnecting/reconnecting the power supply connected to the
Transmitter.
