Connect the HDMI source to the B125-150 Source Unit using a Tripp Lite P568-series HDMI cable.*

Connect the HDMI display to the B125-150 Display Unit using a Tripp Lite P568-series HDMI cable.*

Connect a Tripp Lite N001- N002 or N201-series Cat5e/6 cable* from Port A of the B125-150 Source Unit to Port A of the B125-150 Display Unit.

Connect a Tripp Lite N001-, N002 or N201-series Cat5e/6 cable* from Port B of the B125-150 Source Unit to Port B of the B125-150 Display Unit.

Note: If the Cat5/6 cables are cross-connected (A to B and B to A) the Extender will not function. To avoid this problem, either tag the cables or use differently colored cables, e.g. black and red.

Connect the included Power Adapter to the B125-150 Display Unit, then plug it into an AC power outlet. To prevent damage and assure peak performance, it is recommended that the Power Adapter be plugged into a Tripp Lite Surge Suppressor.

Note: Depending on signal and cable quality, the Power Adapter may not be required. However, Tripp Lite recommends using it at all times.

* HDMI and Cat5e/6 cables sold separately.

3. Troubleshooting

If the image is not displaying properly:

Check to ensure that Connectors A and B on the source side are connected to Connectors A and B on the display side. If the Cat5/6 cables are cross-connected (A to B and B to A), the Extender will not function.

Check to ensure that you are not using Cat5e/6 cross-over cabling. If this type of cabling is used, the Extender will not function.

Verify that the HDMI source and display are functioning properly by connecting them using a Tripp Lite P568-series cable no longer than 15 ft. If the source and display are functioning properly, test the Cat5/6 cabling by connecting it between two Cat5/6 devices. If the Cat5/6 cabling is functioning properly, contact Tripp Lite Technical support at (773) 869-1234 for further assistance.
