Connect the external power supply to the transmitter. Plug it into an available wall outlet or a Tripp Lite surge protector, power distribution or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The POWER (green) LED on the local transmitter unit will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power from the external power supply. The POWER (green) LED on the remote receiver unit will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power from the local transmitter unit through PoC technology.
-
Turn on the power to the HDMI source.
-
The orange RJ45 LED will illuminate on both the local transmitter and remote receiver units to indicate a signal is being received from the source to display. The screen should now display on the connected monitor.
Transceiver Daisy-Chain Installation
(B127A-110-BH only)
Notes:
- Test to ensure the entire installation works properly before pulling cables through ceilings/walls.
- To achieve maximum distance and performance, use 24 AWG solid wire Cat5e/6 cable. Using stranded wire Cat5e/6 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.
- The installation diagram shows the B127A-111-BHTH and B127A-110-BH installation.
-
Make sure all equipment in the installation—such as TVs, Blu-ray players, and the transmitter—is powered OFF.
-
Connect the HDMI source to the INPUT port on the
B127A-111-BHTH using a Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A Series HDMI Cable. -
Connect a local monitor to the LOCAL HDMI port using
a Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A Series HDMI Cable. -
Connect the external power supply to the local unit and plug it into a Tripp Lite surge protector, power distribution unit (PDU), or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The green RJ45 LEDs will illuminate to indicate power is being received from the external power supply.
-
Using a Cat5e/6 cable, connect one of the RJ45 output ports on the local unit to the RJ45 input port on the B127A-110-BH transceiver unit.
-
Connect a monitor to the HDMI OUTPUT port on the transceiver unit using a Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A Series HDMI Cable.
-
The green power LED and the green RJ45 LEDs on the transceiver will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power. Up to four units can be daisy-chained (three transceivers and one receiver). To connect additional transceiver units, proceed to step 8. To finish your installation with a B127A-110-BH unit, proceed to step 12.
-
Using the Cat5e/6 cable, connect the RJ45 OUTPUT port on the B127A-111-BHTH receiver unit to the RJ45 INPUT port on B127A-110-BH.
-
Connect a monitor to the HDMI OUTPUT port on the B127A-110-BH that you just added using a Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A Series HDMI Cable
-
Connect the external power supply to the B127A-110-BH and plug it into a Tripp Lite surge protector, power distribution unit (PDU), or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The green power LED and the green RJ45 LEDs will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power.
-
To add a second B127A-110-BH, repeat steps 8 through 10. To finish your installation with a B127A-110-BH, proceed to step 12.
-
Using the Cat5e/6 cable, connect the RJ45 OUTPUT port on the last B127A-110-BH to the RJ45 INPUT port.
-
Connect a monitor to the HDMI OUTPUT port on the B127A-110-BH using a Tripp Lite P568-Series HDMI Cable.
-
The green LED on the B127A-110-BH will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power from the previous transceiver. The orange LED will illuminate to indicate the unit is connected to a powered ON remote/repeater unit.
-
Turn on the power to the HDMI source. The orange RJ45 LEDs on the local unit will illuminate to indicate a signal is being received from the source.
-
If necessary, use the Equalization control on the remote/repeater unit(s) and remote receiver unit to adjust the video image.
-
The maximum number of daisy-chain layers is four for a total distance of 920 ft., but the distance can be extended to 1,090 ft. when a B127A-010-H signal booster is used. See the B127A-010-H product features for details.
Note: An improper Equalization setting can cause the monitor not to display a picture at all. Try each Equalization setting until an acceptable picture is displayed.
Select extender kits provide the following functional controls:
- USB 1.1 – One Micro-USB input at the transmitter, dual USB-A outputs at the receiver
- Bi-Directional IR – Dual 3.5 mm jacks at both the transmitter and receiver
- Toslink output at receiver and transceiver (Optional) Connect the included IR-OUT cable to the transmitter unit’s IR-OUT port. Place the sensor on the IR-OUT cable in an unobstructed area within a clear view of the device being controlled. Then connect the included IR-IN cable to the receiver unit’s IR-IN port. The IR-IN cable will communicate the desired command via the transmitter’s IR-OUT cable.
Note: The IR-OUT cable receives the signal from the remote control and sends it to the device being controlled (e.g. Blu-ray player, etc.).
(Optional for B127A-1A1-BHBH only) With a user-supplied USB Micro-B cable (such as Tripp Lite U050-XXX Series USB cable), connect to the transmitter’s Micro-B port. Then connect a keyboard and mouse to the available USB-A ports on the receiver unit. The USB and IR functions can be selected via the DIP switch on the front of the transmitter unit.
(Optional) Using a Toslink cable (such as Tripp Lite A102-XXM Series cables), connect the Toslink cable to a set of speakers, an audio receiver, or another audio system equipped with Toslink digital outputs.
