Installation

Please follow the below instructions for installation.
Lindy advises using high-quality HDMI cables up to 2m in length on the input, and 2m in length on the
output. Cat.5e cabling can also be used however this will impact the maximum distance possible, therefore
Cat.6 cable or above is recommended for use. Please ensure all devices are switched off prior to
installation.
1. Connect an HDMI display to the required receiver unit using HDMI cable.
2. Connect a Cat.6 or above network cable to the Cat In port of the receiver unit.
3. Connect the opposing end of the Cat.6 cable to one of the 4 Cat Out ports of the splitter.
4. For local HDMI distribution, connect an HDMI display to the local HDMI Out port of the splitter unit.
If cascading, please connect an additional splitter extender to the HDMI Out port of the splitter unit
and follow the above steps regarding connecting receivers. Repeat the process again for
connecting a third splitter extender.
5. Connect an HDMI source device to the HDMI In of the splitter unit.
6. Connect the multi-country power supply to the DC jack of the splitter unit and plug into a mains
socket.
7. Switch on all devices. The Power LED of the splitter and receiver units will illuminate once power
has been supplied. Power is provided to the receivers over the network cable using PoC.
8. For additional infrared remote signal functionality, connect the included IR Extension Cables to the
splitter and receiver units, using the IR emitter cable with the IR Out port on the splitter and the IR
receiver with the IR in port of the receivers. Please ensure the emitter cable is in front of the IR port
that will be controlled, while the IR receivers are in line of sight of the IR remote.
Troubleshooting
There is no display on the screen.
It has been found that there are significant differences in the cable lengths/types and even input ports
which can be used on different brands of display using HDMI resolutions. If problems are
experienced, please apply the following steps:
Reset the splitter extender or receiver unit using the reset push button.

Try a different input port on the display.

Reduce the cable length on the Input and Output to 1m.

Try a different type of 1m HDMI Cable.

Check that the DC plug and jack used by the external power supply is firmly connected.

Check that the Cat.6 or above cable is connected correctly.

Power off all the devices, then power on in this order: first, the splitter unit, then the display and finally

the source.
For some HDMI devices it may be helpful to unplug and re-connect their HDMI connection to re-initiate

the HDMI handshake and recognition.
Reduce the length of Cat.6 or HDMI cable used or use a higher quality cable.

Lindy regularly checks and tests our product range to ensure maximum compatibility and performance.
