Disclaimer

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

1. Set monitor to display at 60 Hz. Double-check factory settings, as default may be set to a lower frequency (Hz).

2. Ensure your monitor’s input setting is set to HDMI 2.0. Some displays may have a default setting of HDMI 1.4

3. Verify your monitor has the HDR feature enabled. Some displays may
   have this feature disabled as a default 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: If you wish to connect a local monitor to your installation, depending on the make/model of your TV or monitor, the UHD Deep Color setting may need to be disabled on your local TV/monitor to achieve 4K 60 Hz resolution.

Mounting Instructions (select models)

The B127-1A1-DH, B127-002-D2H, B127-004-D4H and B127-008-D include mounting hardware, allowing 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

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 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 use 24 AWG solid-wire cabling.
• The installation diagram shows a B127-1A1-DH unit.
• External power is not required for the remote receiver due to Power over Cable (PoC) technology incorporated in the transmitter unit.

B127-1A1-DH Extender Kit

1. Up to 125 ft. (38 m) Cat6 cable at 4K/60 Hz
2. Up to 15 ft. (4.5 m) HDMI 2.0 cable at 4K/60 Hz
3. Up to 15 ft. (4.5 m) DisplayPort cable at 4K/60 Hz
   

Standard Extender Kit Installation

1. Make sure all equipment in the installation—such as TVs, Blu-ray players and the transmitter—is powered OFF.
2. Using DisplayPort cables (such as Tripp Lite P580-XXX-Series), connect the DisplayPort source to the INPUT port on the B127-1A1-DH local transmitter unit.
3. Optional for B127-1A1-DH: Using an HDMI 2.0 cable (such as Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A-Series cable), connect a local monitor to the LOCAL port on the B127-1A1-DH local transmitter unit.
4. Using Cat6 cable, connect the RJ45 port on the local transmitter 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 cable), connect the remote receiver unit’s HDMI port to a monitor.
6. Power on all connected displays. The LOCAL (orange) LED will illuminate to indicate the local port is connected to a display.
7. Connect the external power supply to the local transmitter unit and plug it into an available wall outlet or (optional) a Tripp Lite Surge Protector, Power Distribution Unit (PDU) or Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). The POWER (green) LED 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 by way of PoC technology.
8. Turn on the power to the DisplayPort source. The OUTPUT (orange) LED on the local transmitter unit will illuminate to indicate a signal is received from the source.
9. The RJ45 (orange) LED will illuminate on both local transmitter and remote receiver units to indicate a signal is being received from source to display. The screen should now display on the connected monitor.

Standard Extender Installation

4. Up to 15 ft. (4.5 m) DisplayPort cable at 4K/60 Hz
   

Standard Extender Installation

1. Make sure all equipment in the installation—such as TVs, Blu-ray players and the transmitter—is powered OFF.
2. Using DisplayPort cables (such as Tripp Lite P580-XXX-Series), connect the DisplayPort source to the INPUT port on the B127-002-D2H, B127-004-D4H or B127-008-D local transmitter unit.
3. Optional for B127-004-D4H and B127-008-D: Using an HDMI 2.0 cable (such as Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A-Series cable), connect a local monitor to the LOCAL port on the B127-004-D4H or B127-008-D local transmitter unit.
4. Using Cat6 cable, connect the RJ45 output port on the local transmitter unit to the RJ45 port on the B127-100-H remote receiver unit.
5. Repeat step 4 for each additional remote receiver unit being connected.
6. Using an HDMI 2.0 cable (such as Tripp Lite P569-XXX-CERT or P568-XXX-2A-Series cable), connect the B127-100-H’s HDMI port to a monitor.
7. Repeat Step 6 for each additional remote B127-100-H receiver unit in the installation.
8. Power on all connected displays. The LOCAL (orange) LED will illuminate to indicate the local port is connected to a display.
9. Connect the external power supply to the B127-002-D2H, B127-004-D4H or B127-008-D local transmitter unit and plug it into an available wall outlet or (optional) a Tripp Lite Surge Protector, Power Distribution Unit (PDU) or Uninterruptible Power Supply (UPS). The POWER (green) LED will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power from the external power supply. On the B127-100-H, the POWER (green) LED on the remote receiver unit will illuminate to indicate the unit is receiving power from the extender/splitter.
10. Turn on the power to the DisplayPort source. The (orange) LED on the B127-002-D2H, B127-004-D4H or B127-008-D will illuminate to indicate a signal is received from the source. Additionally, the OUTPUT (orange) LED will illuminate for each port signal connection.
