How to install Tripp Lite by Eaton 8-Port HDMI over Cat6 Splitter/Extender

• Plan your layout by identifying the HDMI source location, eight receiver endpoints, and power options. Confirm Cat6 cable lengths meet the 125 ft per-link requirement and verify that displays are positioned to receive the signal clearly.
• Connect the HDMI source to the transmitter's HDMI input using a standard HDMI cable. Ensure the source is powered off during the connection for a safe setup.
• Run eight Cat6 cables from the transmitter to the locations where receivers will be installed. Use high-quality CAT6 network cables and properly terminate each end with compatible HDMI extenders or receivers designed for this system.
• Connect each Cat6 run to its corresponding HDMI receiver. If you are using PoC, ensure the transmitter is configured to power remote receivers through the Cat6 cable; otherwise connect the optional power supplies to the receivers as directed by the installation guide.
• Power on the transmitter first, followed by the receivers. Set each display to its native resolution or a compatible 4K60 setting if EDID management is available, and verify that video and audio are correctly routed to every display.
• Test synchronization across all outputs, adjust display settings for color and brightness as needed, and confirm performance during live content to ensure no lag or dropouts occur across the extended network.
