There ar e two subsets of transmitters and r eceivers in two differ ent enclosur es or form factors: • HDMI 201 Tx/Rx — These units are housed in quarter rack width metal enclosur es. They can be set on a tabletop or mounted in a rack, under or through furniture, or to a projector pole. NOTE: The non-Decora models do not input, transmit, receiv[...]

TP Cable Advantages T wisted pair cable is much smaller , lighter , more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial or HDMI cable. These transmitter and receiver twisted pair (TP) pr oducts make cable runs simpler and less cumbersome. T ermination of the cable with RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical. NOTES: • The transmitter and re[...]

Featur es T ransmits single link HDMI signals over two CA T 5/5e/6 cables — Standard twisted pair cables provide an economical, easily installed cable solution.

Decora Unit Mounting The HDMI 201 A D (Decora) transmitter and receiver can be installed in a one-gang electrical wall box with a Decora wall plate cover (supplied). The installation must conform to national and local electrical codes and to the size requir ements of the wall plate. UL/safety guidelines The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) [...]

1. If a wall box is not available to use for a template, see the dimensions on page 35 to create a template. If installing dir ectly into furniture, cut out the center portion of your template. 2. Place the wall box (or your template) against the installation surface, and mark the opening guidelines. 3. Cut out the material from the marked ar ea. 4[...]

Final installation After testing and making any adjustments, do the following: 1. At the power outlet, unplug the power supply . NOTE: One power supply can power both the transmitter and the receiver , so only one unit needs a power supply . 2. Mount the transmitter or receiver into the wall box, and attach the supplied Decora faceplate to the unit[...]
