Disclaimer

Before installation, check the following settings of your source(s) and TV/monitor(s):

1. Set to display 60 Hz. Double-check factory settings, in case the default is set to a lower frequency (Hz) than advertised.

2. Ensure the input setting of your monitor is set at HDMI 2.0 or DisplayPort 1.2a. Some displays may have default setting at HDMI 1.4.
   Note : This is only important for the B127A-1A1-BDBH model; the B127A- 1A1-BDBD, B127A-110-BD and B127A-111-BDTD will need DP 1.2a settings.

3. Check if the Ultra HD (UHD) Deep Color setting is enabled on your TV/monitor. Confirm with your TV/monitor manufacturer which HDMI ports support UHD Deep Color.
   Note : Only for the B127A-1A1-BDBH model.

4. Check the USB/IR DIP switch, as the default setting is set to “IR”. Notes: Only for the B127A-1A1-BDBH and B127A-1A1-BDBD models. The B127A-111-BDTD and B127A-110-BD units do not have IR/USB ports or a DIP switch.To connect a local monitor to your installation, the UHD Deep Color setting may need to be disabled on your local TV/monitor (depending on the make/model) to achieve 4K/60 Hz resolution.

Mounting Instructions

The B127A-1A1-BDBH, B127A-1A1-BDBD, B127A-110-BD and B127A-111-BDTD include mounting hardware that allows for a variety of mounting methods. The following images illustrate how the included mounting brackets can be attached for different installations.

Note : The model shown in the below images is for illustrative purposes only. Your product may vary by model number, size or port orientation. The mounting options for all over IP units are the same.

Standard Extender Kit Installation

Model B127A-1A1-BDBH

Notes:

1. Test to ensure the entire installation works properly before pulling cables through ceilings/walls.
2. To achieve maximum distance and performance, use 24 AWG solid wire Cat6 cable. Using stranded-wire Cat6 cable or cable with a gauge (AWG) size higher than 24 AWG will result in shorter extension distance. Higher gauge cabling, such as 26 AWG, has a more limited transmission capability than lower gauge cabling. All Tripp Lite N202-Series Cat6 cables are made with 24 AWG solid-wire cabling.
3. The installation diagram shows a B127A-1A1-BDBH unit.
4. External power is not required for remote receiver units due to Power over Cable (PoC) technology incorporated in the transmitter units.
5. If there are issues with a flickering video signal after installation, remove the Cat6 cable and try another one, either the same length or shorter. If the flicker persists, change the host computer’s resolution to 1920 x 1080 to see if the image itself is stable.
