Introduction

The J-Tech Digital JTD-EX-120M-UN-T transmitter works in conjunction with JTD- EX-120M-UN-R receiver and allows users to use these extenders in a point – point, point – many, or many to many configurations. The point – many, and many to many configurations can be achieved using the JTECH-NS24 or JTECH-NS48 A/V over IP gigabit ethernet switch. Distribute 1080P 60Hz audio/video signals up to 400ft. using these extenders, and take advantage of the IR function that allows you to control your source device from the displays location.

Features

• Extend 1080P HDMI signals up to 400ft. over a single UTP Cat5e/6 cable
• Offers multicasting and broadcasting functions, allowing you to add more displays without adding LAN bandwidth
• Wideband IR (38-56kHz) to control source device from displays location
• Supports point-point, point- many, and many-many configurations
• For optimal performance in point-many or many-many modes, we recommend using our JTECHNS24 or JTECH-NS48 port A/V over IP gigabit ethernet switch

• Connect the power supply for both the transmitter and the receiver
• Plug in the IR-TX cable in to the IR port on the transmitter, and the IR-RX cable in to the IR port on the receiver

*Note:

• Place the IR transmitter cable’s emitter bulb directly in front of the source devices’ IR window
• Ensure that the IR receiver is in direct line of sight with the remote control of the source device
• Insert/extract cables gently

Typical Applications

• Point – Point
• Point – Many Note Connect HOMI Transmitter port and Receiver ports to the Ethemet Switch

Transmitter / Receiver IP and MAC Address Setup

An HTTP server is embedded in each transmitter and receiver. You can set up IP address for these extenders via web browser.

• The default IP address of the TX is 192.168.168.55, MAC address is 00:0b:78:00:60:01
• The default IP address of the RX is 192.168.168.56, MAC address is 00:0b:78:00:60:02

Step 1: Assign the PC (or laptop) a static IP address. “Control Panel > Network Connections > Local Area Connection Status > Properties > Internet Protocol (TCP/IP)”.
In the IP address field, type 192.168.168.11 and subnet mask 255.255.255.0. Press OK to save.

Note: The IP address of the PC should be different from the IP address of TX and RX.

Step 2: Use an ethernet cable to connect the PC (or laptop) to the extender unit. The extenders status light should turn green.

Step 3: Ping the connected device through command prompt. “Start > Run > Type CMD and hit Enter > Input “ping 192.168.168.55” for transmitter or “ping 192.168.168.56” for receiver. If the connection is established, you will receive a reply after pinging.

Step 4: Open a browser and type in 192.168.168.55 for transmitter or 192.168.168.55 for receivers web interface login page. Here, you can set up the extender units IP address, subnet mask, gateway, and MAC address. If using for point – many configuration, ensure that each receiver has a unique IP address and MAC address. If using for many – many configuration, ensure that each transmitter and receiver have a unique IP and MAC address.

Step 5: Click Apply and the green light on the extender units will briefly go out. This mean that you have successfully set the IP address and MAC address for your units.

Note: If you need to restore the devices to their factory settings, follow these steps:

• Power on the device and the red light should appear
• Wait about 10 seconds and the green light should appear
• At this time, press the reset button for 7-10 seconds, the green light will go out meaning that you have successfully restored the unit to factory IP and MAC address

Frequently Asked Questions

1. What kind of ethernet cable should be used?

A. We recommend using Cat5e/6 Solid 24AWG UTP Cable. For optimal performance, use J-Tech Digital ethernet cables which can be found on our website.

2. Can I use these transmitter and receivers with other models?

A. No. The J-Tech Digital JTD-EX-120M-UN-T transmitter only works with the JTD-EX-120M-UN-R receivers.

3. Do these models supports 4K resolution?

A. No, these units support up to 1080P 60Hz.

4. What kind of switch is required for a point-many or many-many configuration?

A. You can use a managed switch with VLAN function for a point-many or many- many configuration, but we recommend using the JTD-793 24-port A/V over IP ethernet switch or the JTD-636 48-port A/V over IP ethernet switch with these extenders since our switches have a custom web-interface to help with input/output routing.

5. Do these extenders support bi-directional IR?

A. No, these unit only support IR one way allowing you to control your source device from the displays location.

6. While using it in a point-many or many-many configuration, there is noticeable video and audio stuttering. What could be the issue?

A. By default, all transmitters and receivers are flashed with the same IP and MAC address. While using for a point-many configuration, ensure that all receivers being used have a unique IP and MAC address. While using for a many- many configuration, ensure that all transmitters and receivers have a unique IP and MAC address. Having matching IP and MAC addresses between different transmitters and receivers could cause issues within the setup such as audio/video stuttering.

• The default IP address of the TX is 192.168.168.55, MAC address is 00:0b:78:00:60:01
• The default IP address of the RX is 192.168.168.56, MAC address is 00:0b:78:00:60:02
