2.2 Cascaded Installation (Continued)

To perform a cascaded installation:

Connect the first-level splitter to the HDMI source (using the integral cable on the 2-port B118-302-R or a P568-series cable with the 4-Port B118-304-R).

Using a P568-series cable, connect a B118-304-R splitter or a display to any available port on this first level splitter.

Using a P568-series cable, connect a B118-304-R splitter or a display to any open port of any second-level splitters.

Using a P568-series cable, connect a display to any port on the third-level splitters.

Connect the Power Adapter to the first-level splitter, plug it in, and power it ON.

Connect the Power Adapter to the second-level splitters, plug them in and power them ON.

Connect the Power Adapter to any third-level splitter, plug it in, and power it ON.

The Output Port LEDs will illuminate when the ports are connected to powered-on displays.

Notes:

a)ALL splitters in a cascaded installation must be connected to an AC power source.

b)The Power LED on the B118-304-R only will illuminate when the splitter is plugged into a power source.

c)Use only the power adapters that are included with the splitters.

d)It is recommended that you plug the power adapters into a Tripp Lite surge suppressor (sold separately).

e)Longer ranges are possible by using higher-gauge cable, or at resolutions lower than 1080p. Contact Tripp Lite for more information.

2.3 Extending Distance to Connected Display

An HDMI extender or signal booster (Tripp Lite Model B122-000) can increase the distance between the splitter and connected displays or cascaded splitters to up to 130 ft. (40 m) or more.* By placing a splitter between each connection, the total distance between source and any display is 260 ft. (80 m) or more.*
