Important safety instructions
Please read and keep the information in the attached safety instructions supplied with the
product before you start using the device.
Introduction
TPS-TX97 and RX97 twisted pair HDBaseT extenders provide extension of uncompressed
TM
4K/UHD video with embedded audio for long distances over a single CATx cable. The extender
offers uni-directional RS-232, IR, and Ethernet pass-through on the same CATx cable that
carries the video signal. The TPS extenders support full HDCP and EDID compliance and
work on all standard AV resolutions and also 120 Hz 3D signals. PoE 48V remote powering is
available through the single CATx cable, but a local power supply can also be used.

Compatible devices
TPS-97 extenders are compatible with all Lightware devices with TPS port except the TPS-90
series.
Power supply options
TPS-97 extenders are compatible with IEEE 802.3af standard - Power over Ethernet (PoE) -
and can receive power over the TPS line.
 The extenders are not compatible with TPS-95 extenders from remote power point
of view. TPS-95 extenders have different remote power feature which is not PoE-
compatible. Please check the devices always before connecting them to each other. If
the remote power feature is disabled on the TPS-95 extender, it can be connected to a
TPS-97 device.
The extenders can be powered:
ƒ Locally with the supplied 12V DC adaptor or Lightware's rack mountable PSU,
ƒ Remotely by a PoE-compatible Power Sourcing Equipment (PSE) device, like Lightware's
power injector (TPS-PI-1P1) or a PoE-compatible matrix or matrix board.
If both supplying modes are available (local and remote) the remote power supply will be used.
 Do not connect any device to the TPS connector unless you are sure they are
compatible! Connecting incompatible devices with similar connectors may cause harm
to the devices.
 AWG 26 cables are not recommended with remote powering (reduce cable distances).

 The transmitter and the receiver have the same construction and connectors.
 DVI-HDCP-TPS-TX97 and RX97 have exactly the same capabilities and features, the only
difference is the video port connector.
The product is compatible with any HDBaseT

third party devices.

Installation – Standalone application
Below layout means the transmitter is powered locally by the power injector and they are
placed close to each other. The receiver is powered remotely via the TPS cable (PoE).

Installation steps:
Connect the TPS output port of the TX to the TPS port of the power injector by a CATx
1
cable.
Connect the TPS input port of the RX to the TPS+PoE port of the power injector by a
2
CATx cable.
Connect a DC-DC cable between the transmitter and the power injector.
3
Connect a source to the HDMI (DVI-D) input port of the transmitter.
4
5 Connect an IR emitter unit to the IR output port of the transmitter.
Connect a controller device to the local RS-232 port of the transmitter. Make sure the
6
RS-232 switch is in Normal position.
7 Optionally connect a laptop to the Ethernet port of the transmitter
Connect a sink device to the HDMI (DVI-D) output port of the receiver.

9 Connect a serial cable between the sink device and the RS-232 port of the receiver.
Connect the receiver to Ethernet by a CATx cable.
q
Connect an IR detector unit to the IR input port of the receiver.
w
Firstly connect the power adaptor to the DC input of the power injector, then secondly
e
to the AC power socket.
Locking DC plug
The device has a locking DC connector to establish robust and safe power connection when
local PSU is used.
Twist 90° clockwise to lock.

Mounting options
Lightware offers three types of mounting accessory to fix the extenders:
Under desk mounting kit (UD-kit)
The UD-kit makes easy to mount one extender under any flat surface (e.g. furniture).

Rack shelf
1U high rack shelf provides mounting holes for fastening up to four extenders.
Mounting steps
 Always use the fixing screws which are supplied with the mounting accessory. If
you insert screws longer than 6 mm, the device can be damaged.
1. Unplug all the cables connected to the device(s).
2. Turn the device(s) upside down.
3. Put the shelf upside down on the device(s). Position it to get the mounting holes aligned.
4. Fasten the device on the shelf with the provided screws.
5. Fix the shelf to the desired place (screws are not supplied).

Installation of the extender with a matrix
1. Power off all devices (installing with powered devices may harm them).
2. Check the RS-232 switch(es) on the extender(s); they must be in Normal position for
RS-232 pass-through function.
3. The state of the TPS link mode switch makes no difference on the extender because the
connected board forces the extender to use the settings of the matrix.
4. Check the PoE settings of the matrix or the matrix board (with the LDC software); each
port can be set for remote powering separately.
5. Pair the extender(s) and the matrix board(s) with CATx cable(s). The transmitters' TPS
OUT with the input boards' TPS IN and the receivers' TPS IN with the output boards'
TPS OUT.
6. Connect the video source(s), sink(s) and the desired accessory device(s) to the matrix
(MX-TPS boards don't support the IR pass-through).
7. Connect the video source(s), sink(s) and the desired accessory device(s) to the extenders.
8. To supply the extender(s) with remote power supply connect the necessary power
adaptor to the given matrix board.
9. To supply the extenders locally connect the supplied adaptor (12V 2A DC).
10. Connect the power cord of the matrix into the outlet and switch on the matrix.
11. Supply the other connected units.
