Before You Start
- When installing the extenders DO NOT:
Cover the vents
Install into a sealed wall
Install into an area without adequate air ventilation
*Remove the side screws from the case and use for bracket installation
Category Cable
For the category cables used in the installation of these products, please be sure to use a 568B termination as pictured below:
Use the table below to verify the best category cable for the installation.
Important! 4K (UHD) signals are sensitive to cable quality and
installation technique. It is recommended to use CAT6a/7 solid core cables for
best results.
Note : For cable distances see the specifications on page 1
Connector
Connector type and size is very important to ensure extenders work correctly.
Please use the matching cable type with the correct RJ45 connector.
CAT5e and CAT 6 cables should use only CAT5e RJ45 connectors
CAT6a cables should use only CAT6a connectors
CAT7 cables should use only CAT7 connectors
Using the wrong size of connectors may result in interference causing loss of
signal.
Important! “EZ RJ45 connectors” are not recommended with HDBaseT extenders. Doing so may result in stray EMI/RFI signals to be picked up and interfere with audio and video transmission.

Captive Screw
Captive screw connectors are an added feature on the UHD extender. The captive screw connectors allow you to cut cables down to a suitable length, reduce cable clutter, while providing a more reliable connection.
Connecting
When connecting the cables to the female captive screw connector it is important that the wires be terminated correctly. The female captive screw connector has a contact plate at the top and must have the wires touching it for signal to pass. When wired correctly (see picture A) the signal will pass, incorrectly (see picture B) no signal will pass.
Note : The IR receiver is optional for the UHD-EX-100CE-KIT and RX box. The compatible IR receiver (AT-IR-CS-RX) can be purchased through atlona.com.
The wires of the emitter and receiver have been marked to differenciate the pin outs.
The included IR emitter has two wires: signal and ground. Signal will have a solid line and ground will be blank. The IR emitter will plug into the IR OUT ports.
There are three wires on the IR receiver (AT-IR-CS-RX sold separately): signal, ground, and power. Signal has a dotted line, ground will be blank, and power will have a solid line. The IR receiver will plug into the IR IN ports.
Power Chaining
Multiple kits can be powered by one power supply. The included power supply
can support up to 3 kits. To power four kits use the optional power supply AT-
PS-483125-C (purchase through atlona.com).
To chain one power supply to three transmitters (four when using AT- PS-483125-C), use two wago splicing connectors, 18/2 AWG stranded wire, a ventilated 1 RU rack shelf, zip ties, and high temperature hook and loop (velcro) strips will be needed.
-
1 RU rack shelf – Should be at least 10in / 254mm deep, fit in a standard 19” rack, and must be well ventilated. Use the rack screws (included with 19” racks) to secure the rack shelf to the back/front of the rack after power chaining set up is completed.
-
Transmitters – Place 3 or 4 units on the rack shelf. Use high temperature (up to 185°F / 85°C) hook and loop (velcro) to secure the transmitters to the rack.
-
Power supply – Place the included power supply (or the AT-PS-483125-C) on the rack with enough room to connect the included IEC power cable. Use twist ties to secure the power supply and cable to the rack.
-
Wago splicing connectors – Connect the wires from the power supply cable to the wago splicers. Connect (model #: 222-415) the white wire (power/+) to one splicer and the black wire (ground/-) to the second splicer.
Note : Only one wire per port. -
18/2 AWG stranded wire – Connect the individual wires to the wago splicers and the transmitter captive screw connectors. There will be two colors of wires (black/red) which will need to be designated – and +. Each color will need to be the same across all connections to ensure no signals are crossed. Strip the ends of each wire and
place one end in the appropriate wago connector and the other to the corresponding captive screw connector. Use the zip ties to keep all wires in place and organized.
