INTRODUCTION

The Gefen HD-1000 allows an HDMI video signal to be extended up to 330
feet (1640 w/o HDCP) using multi-mode LC-LC fi ber optic cable. Fiber Optics
technology allows the HD-1000 to carry video signals over long distances that
are not possible with other technologies. Fiber Optic cables are immune to video
signal corruption from electromagnetic interference (EMI), ensuring a crystal
clear picture.

How It Works

The HD•1000S sender unit sits next to your set-top box or DVD player source.
Cables supplied with the HD•1000 connect your HDMI™ 1.3 source to the
sender unit. The display plugs into the back of the receiver unit. One CAT-5 cable
and a multi mode LC fi ber optic cable connect the Sender and the Receiver units
to each other.

OPERATION NOTES

READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR

OPERATING THE HD-1000

• 50 or 62.5 micron multi-mode fi ber optic cable is required for operation of
the HD-1000. Maximum extension range of 330 feet (100 meters) when
the source requires HDCP. One CAT-5, CAT-5e or CAT6 cable is used to
transmit DDC and HDCP data back to the source.

• Maximum range of 1640 feet (500 meters) when the source does not require
HDCP. This scenario does not require the CAT-5, CAT5e or CAT-6 cable if
the source does not require DDC information. If DDC is required, the use of
an EDID storage device (part# EXT-DVI-EDIDN, EXT-DVI-EDIDP) can be
used to transmit DDC information back to the source.

• HDMI 1.3 compliant (please see FEATURES section on page 2 for
supported HDMI 1.3 features).

• HDCP compliant

• Compatible with all HDMI and DVI* displays.

NOTE: *When used with a DVI to HDMI adapter

CONNECTING AND OPERATING THE HD-1000

How To Connect The HD-1000

1. Connect the HDMI source to the HD-1000 sender unit using the supplied HDMI
cable.

2. Connect a user supplied CA T-5, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable to the sender unit.

3. Connect four user supplied multi-mode LC terminated fi ber optic cables into
HD-1000 sender unit.

NOTE: 50 or 62.5 micron multi-mode fi ber optic cable is required for operation of
the HD-1000.

4. Connect the other end of the CAT-5, CAT-5e or CAT-6 cable into the HD­1000 receiver unit.

5. Connect the other ends of all four multi-mode LC terminated fi ber optic
cables into the HD-1000 receiver unit.

NOTE: Please take careful note of the labeling above each fi ber optic port on
both the sending and receiving HD-1000 units. The most common user error is
to mis-match the fi ber optic cable connections on each end, which results in no
video being transmitted.

6. Connect the display to the HD-1000 receiver unit using a user supplied
HDMI cable.

7. Connect the included 5V DC power supplies into both the HD-1000 sending
unit and receiving units.

8. Power on the display, followed by the source.

No further adjustments are necessary to operate the HD-1000.

Gefen has specifi cally engineered their products to work with the TIA/EIA-568-B
specifi cation. Please adhere to the table above when fi eld terminating cable for
use with Gefen products. Failure to do so may produce unexpected results and
reduced performance.

CAT-5, CAT-5e, and CAT-6 cabling comes in stranded and solid core types.
Gefen recommends using solid core cabling. CAT-6 cable is also recommended
for best results.

Each cable run must be one continuous run from one end to the other. No
splices or use of punch down blocks are permitted as these will cause signal
degradation.
