Introduction
The HDMI-TPS-RX/TX95 and DVI-HDCP-TPS-RX/TX95 are DVI 1.0 and HDMI 1.4
compatible long-distance extenders. The difference between HDMI and DVI-HDCP models
is just the HDMI and DVI connector. The units offer bi-directional RS-232, Infra-Red (IR), and
Ethernet signal pass-through on the same CAT5e...CAT7 cable that carries the uncompressed
HDMI video and audio signal.

Remote Power Options
The TPS extenders can be powered remotely by its extender pair or a TPS matrix board. This
feature can be enabled or disabled with jumper settings. Switch off the extenders. Loose the
screws and remove the small plate from the right side of the enclosure. To enable the remote
power function place the jumper block onto all the pinheads. To disable it place the jumper
block onto the upper line pinheads only. In case of enabled remote power on both extenders
the local adaptor can be placed at any side.

 The TPS remote powering must be used only with 95 series TPS extenders and MX
TPS matrix boards. Using it with other devices may damage both units. Connecting
incompatible devices with similar connectors may cause harm to the devices. Never
connect any third party device to the extender with remote powering!
 AWG 26 cables are not recommended with remote powering (reduce cable distances).

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).
Status LEDs
HDCP
ƒ OFF: video output signal is not encrypted with HDCP.
ƒ ON: video output signal is encrypted with HDCP.
VIDEO
ƒ OFF: no video signal transmission.
ƒ ON: video signal transmission.
LINK
ƒ OFF: TPS connection failed between the devices.
ƒ BLINKING: TPS connection is detected and LPPF link mode is active.
ƒ ON: TPS connection is detected and HDBT or LR link mode is active.
LIVE
ƒ OFF: no power supply or out of order.
ƒ BLINKING: device is powered and ready to use.
TPS link modes
If an extender and a TPS matrix board are paired the board forces the extender to use the
settings of the matrix. The extender's TPS mode switch has no effect. For detailed information
about the TPS link modes in case of matrix boards see the user's manual of the matrix.
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.
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. Set the remote power mode of the matrix boards with the jumpers on them. Every port
can be set for remote powering separately. To enable the remote power function place
the jumper block onto all the pinheads of the desired port. To disable it remove the jumper
block. For detailed information, see the user's manual of the matrix.
5. Set the extenders' remote power mode with the same method as it mentioned in the
standalone case.
6. 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.
7. 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).
8. Connect the video source(s), sink(s) and the desired accessory device(s) to the extend-
ers.
9. Supply that matrix boards with 12V 6,67A DC which have ports with enabled remote
powering.
10. Supply the extenders with 12V 2A DC. If the remote power is disabled on the connected
matrix card's port, local adaptor must be used for the extender.
11. Connect the power cord of the matrix into the outlet and switch on the matrix.
12. Supply the other connected units.
