Wiring: A send module
are connected using two cat 5e or cat 6 wires using all 8 conductors in each. Connection is made with the RJ45 connector (RJ45 plug not supplied). Always use standard
Make absolutely sure the XA port on the send unit is connected to the XA port on the receive unit. Likewise the XB port on the send unit is connected to the XB port on the receive unit. Both wires are needed.
Please note the maximum cat5e or cat6 wire length for reliable operation of 1080p is 115 feet or 35 meters. Do not attempt a longer length as it may not be reliable. For lower resolutions such as 720p or 1080i the maximum length is 135 feet or 42 meters. Cat 5e and cat 6 wires should be as short as possible.
Never run the cat 5e or cat 6 wires near or along side high voltage wires. If high voltage lines are near by cross the cat 5e or cat 6 wires to them at 90 degree angles.
Power requirements: The Knoll HDMI balun system requires a single PS1205 power supply connected to the send or receive unit.
Note: If the cat 5 wire length exceeds 70’ (21m) we strongly suggest connecting the power supply to the receive side only.
Note: The HDMI decora style and enclosure style Models can be mixed or matched as desired.
Connection to the Projector, TV or other components: Connect short as possible HDMI cable from the receive balun to the projector, TV or other component. The maximum length the HDMI cables to the input and output combined is about 35’ (10 meters).
Setting the HDMI switch: There is a switch on the receive unit that adjusts the Knoll HDMI balun system. In our testing experience we find that a setting of 1 or 2 for anything below 5 metres setting 3 for 5 – 21 metres and 4 is best setting generally for all 1080p material from 22 - 29 metres (98.43 ft), usually a setting of 6 or 7 for distances above 30
–35 metres (115 ft). Feel free to experiment with other settings. To see this effect turn a 1080p image on and try adjusting the switch. Lower resolution images (480i/p, 720p, 1080i) are not affected as much by changing the settings.
