INTRODUCTION
INTRODUCTION
The Gefen HDMI Super Booster Plus is an attractive alternative to the traditional
sender/receiver solutions for HD extension. The HDMI Super Booster Plus enables
your standard “off the shelf” HDMI cable to transmit HDTV video plus multichannel
digital audio in a single cable way beyond the limited HDMI specifi cation of 15-feet.
Up to 200 feet can be easily traversed using your HDMI cable plus a HDMI Super
Booster Plus. The HDMI Super Booster Plus corrects any digital degradation that
occurs when HDMI is used to send digital audio/video signals beyond the HDMI
specifi cation of 15 feet.
How It Works
This plug and play installation takes mere seconds. You simply connect the HDMI
cable on one side of the HDMI Super Booster Plus and the display’s cable on the
other side. The HDMI Super Booster Plus sits between the end of your HDMI cable
and your display. You also have the option of connecting another HDMI cable to the
Booster, daisy chaining Boosters and cables for greater distances.

Connect the long HDMI cable from the source into the “HDMI In” on the front of
the HDMI Super Booster Plus. The HDMI Super Booster Plus is placed next to
your display to regenerate the HDMI cable.
Connect a short HDMI cable from the “HDMI Out” connection in the back of the
HDMI Super Booster Plus to your display or projector
Plug the 5V DC power supply into the HDMI Super Booster Plus.
Plug the 5VDC wall mount power supply into the wall outlet.
Adjust the trim pot on the front of the unit to tune the signal and eliminate any
video noise.
Note: Instead of manually adjusting the EQ to reduce image noise, the HDMI
Super Booster Plus has the ability to do auto equalization. To enable the Auto
EQ, remove the silver sticker on the bottom of the unit to reveal the service dip
switch. By default, the switches should both be in the OFF position. Flip dip
switch 1 to the ON position to enable Auto EQ. If the image is degraded or has
any video noise in this mode, please disable the Auto EQ and adjust the image
manually.

By default, both Dip Switches should be in the off position as shown above. To
enable the Auto EQ, please fl ip Dip Switch 1 to the ON position. You must then
proceed to manually adjust the EQ by turning the EQ trim pot on the front of the unit
in small increments. It is important to turn the dial in very small increments as the
“sweet spot” at which all video noise is eliminated can be very small.
