Product Features • Can also be used in a point-to-point installation where the transmitter directly connects to a receiver up to 328 ft. (100 m) away. • Designed for managed network switches with IGMP, which allow login and remote management via the switch interface. • Video source can be sent to any analog or digital display (e.g. Component Video to HDMI, VGA to HDMI, HDMI to DisplayPort, HDMI to HDMI). • Display a single source on a single monitor or distribute a single signal to multiple monitors.
Mounting Instructions Audio/Video over IP extenders include mounting hardware that allows for a variety of mounting options. The following images demonstrate these mounting methods. Note: Model B126-1A1 is shown for illustrative purposes; installation for Audio/Video over IP extender units is the same. Wall-mount 19” Rack-mount 17-02-096-93360B-EN.
Point-to-Point Installation Notes: • Test to ensure the entire installation works properly before pulling cables through ceilings/walls. • To achieve maximum distance and performance, use 24 AWG solid wire Cat5e/6 cable. Using stranded wire cable or cable with a gauge (AWG) size higher than recommended will result in a shorter extension distance. Higher gauge cabling (such as 26 AWG) has a limited transmission capability compared to lower-gauge cabling.
Point-to-Point Installation 7. Press the Up / Down buttons to set the Channel Number (0-63) on the front of the transmitter unit to a number that will also be used on the receiver unit. Note: A locking mechanism prevents the Channel Number from being unintentionally changed. When the Channel Number is locked, hold down the Up and Down buttons until the Channel Number starts blinking. Then navigate to the desired Channel using the Up / Down buttons.

Point-to-Multipoint Installation – Managed Switch with IGMP 3. (Optional) Connect the computer’s DB9 port to the transmitter unit’s serial port. Depending on the model, the serial port will be either DB9 or 3.5 mm. Models with 3.5 mm jacks include a 3.5 mm to DB9 adapter. Models with DB9 ports require standard RS-232 DB9 cable (sold separately) for connecting to a computer. 4. (Optional) Connect the included IR-OUT cable to the transmitter unit’s IR-OUT port.
Point-to-Multipoint Installation – Managed Switch with IGMP 8. To connect additional transmitter(s), repeat steps 2 through 7. 9. Connect a monitor to the receiver unit’s audio/video Output port (See Optional Accessories for available Tripp Lite audio/video cables). 10. (Optional) Connect the serial device’s DB9 port to the receiver unit’s serial port. Depending on the model, the serial port will be either DB9 or 3.5 mm. Models with 3.5 mm jacks include a 3.5 mm to DB9 adapter.
Point-to-Multipoint Installation – Managed Switch with IGMP 14. To connect additional receivers, repeat steps 9 through 13. 15. Power on all connected devices. 16. Connect the external power supplies to all transmitter and receiver units in the installation, then plug the external power supplies into Tripp Lite Surge Protectors, Uninterruptible Power Supplies (UPS) or Power Distribution Units (PDU).
Operation of Point-to-Multipoint Installation – Managed Switch with IGMP 3. In the VLAN Management section, create a new VLAN for each transmitter in the installation. The transmitter port number should always be the first number in the VLAN, followed by the port numbers (separated by commas) of all receiver units that will be transmitting audio/video to and from the selected transmitter. The screenshot below shows VLAN’s for four transmitters (VLAN0002 through VLAN0005).
Point-to-Multipoint Installation – Unmanaged Switch Notes: • Unmanaged switch installations are limited to two transmitter units. The number of receiver units is limited to the number of ports remaining on the unmanaged switch. • Test to ensure the entire installation works properly before pulling cables through ceilings/walls. • To achieve maximum distance and performance, use 24 AWG solid wire Cat5e/6 cable.

Point-to-Multipoint Installation – Unmanaged Switch 4. (Optional) Connect the included IR-OUT cable to the transmitter unit’s IR-OUT port. Place the sensor on the IR-OUT cable in an unobstructed area within clear view of the device being controlled. Note: The IR-OUT cable receives the signal from the remote control and sends it to the device being controlled (e.g. Blu-ray player, etc.). 5.
Point-to-Multipoint Installation – Unmanaged Switch 11. (Optional) Connect the included IR-IN cable to the receiver unit’s IR-IN port. Place the sensor on the IR-IN cable in an unobstructed area within clear view of the remote control. Note: The IR-IN cable accepts a signal from a remote control and sends it to a device being controlled on the other end of the installation. 12.
Troubleshooting If unable to receive an acceptable image after following the installation instructions, try the following troubleshooting tips: 1. Are the included external power supplies connected and plugged into a working power source? For the product to function properly, it must be connected to and receiving power from the external power supply. 2. Was the power to the connected devices turned off prior to installation? If not, restart all connected devices. 3.
Troubleshooting 7. Check cabling for any damages that may have occurred during installation. If a cable connector is loosened from pulling through ceilings/wall or the cable jacket is damaged with the wiring exposed, maximum performance will not be achieved. 8. Are the transmitter(s) and/or receiver(s) located in an area with exposure to higher temperatures? If the product is overheated, it will not function properly. 9.
