Disclaimer

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

1. Set display to 60 Hz. Double-check factory settings, as default can be set to a lower frequency (Hz) than advertised.
2. Ensure the input setting of your monitor is set at HDMI 2.0. Some displays may have default setting at HDMI 1.4.
3. Verify your monitor has the HDR feature enabled. Some displays may have this feature disabled as a factory setting.
4. 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 for B127A-004-BH, B127A-004-BHPH3 and B127A-008-BH: 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 make) to achieve 4K @ 60 Hz resolution.

Installation

Standard Splitter Kit Installation
(2-Port Models)

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 first installation diagram shows a B127A-002-BHPH2 kit, which includes a B127A-002-BH splitter unit and two B127A-1P0-PH receiver units. The second diagram shows the B127A-002-BH splitter used with an included B127A-1P0-PH receiver and B127A-1A0-BH receiver (sold separately at tripplite.com).
4. External power is not required for remote receiver units because of Power over Cable (PoC) technology incorporated in the transmitter units.

1. Make sure all equipment in the installation—such as TVs, Blu-ray™ players and the transmitter—is powered OFF.
2. Using an HDMI 2.0 cable (such as Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A Series cables), connect the HDMI source to the INPUT port on the local transmitter unit.
3. Optional: For extended range, connect up to two B127A-010-H signal repeater units to the splitter and each receiver via Cat6 cabling.
4. Using Cat6 cable (such as Tripp Lite N202-Series 24 AWG Cat6 Cabling), connect the RJ45 port on the local splitter unit to the RJ45 port on the remote receiver unit.
5. Using an HDMI 2.0 cable (such as Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A Series cables), connect the remote receiver unit’s HDMI port to a monitor.
6. Turn on the power to your connected TVs/monitors. The LOCAL (orange) LED will illuminate to indicate the local port has been connected to a display.
7. Connect the external power supply to the splitter unit. Plug it into an available wall outlet or a Tripp Lite surge protector, power distribution unit (PDU) or uninterruptible power supply (UPS). The POWER (green) LED on the local splitter unit will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power from the external power supply. The POWER (green) LED on the remote receiver unit’s RJ45 port will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power from the local transmitter unit through PoC technology.
8. Turn on the power to the HDMI source. The RJ45 (orange) 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(s).
