・ Cat5e/Cat6 UTP/STP can be used, however, we recomm end a CAT.5E HDC cable* for the twisted pair
cable which i s developed by IDK to maximize quality of video tr ansmission.
・ If using an STP cable, connect the FG connector to an earth ground source. O therwise, the shielding
feature does not work correctly. When using a UTP cable, we still rec ommend using the ground
connector.
・ The shielded STP cables are less affected by interference or external noise than UTP c ables.
・ The connector for twisted pair cabl e is as same as the connectors whi c h ar e used for Ethernet (8 core
modular type connect or ), howev er, it cannot be connected and use for Ethernet because the way of data
transmission is different.
・ The maximum extension distance of Cat5e/Cat6 UTP/STP cable is the shorter m aximum extension
distance of the connect ed HDC r ec eiver and sink device.
・ For pin assignments, apply T568A or T568B standards for straight through wiring.
・ Do not give connection cables a strong pull. The allowable tension of the twisted pair c able is 110 N.
・ Do not bend the connection cable at a sharp angle. Keep the bend radius four times of the cable
diameter or longer .
・ Do not tie the cable tightly; leave a space allowing the cable to move slightly.
・ If you use the s ame cables, we recommended k eeping a distance between the cables or not to place the
cables closely in par allel.
・ Keep the twisted pair cable as straight as you can. If y ou coil the cable, it is easily affected by noise.
・ Do not place this product in an electricall y noi sy environment, since high-speed signal is transmitted.
Particularl y when you use a high-out put radio around this device, video or audio may be interrupted.
・ If the distance between the transmitter and r ec eiv er is 100 m/328.08 feet or less, cables can be joined
using an RJ-45 plug coupl er or wall outl et. Up to two cable couplers are all owed. Couplers supporting
Cat6A (10GBase-T) are recomm ended.

* CAT.5E HDC cable developed by IDK Corporation is double shielded twisted pair cable for high quality video
transmission. It protects video signal from external noise or other int erferences by having doubl e shielded
structure. Its transmission characteristic meets 500 MHz up to 100 m/328.08 ft., and it is certified and
recommended by HDBaseT alli anc e.
【NOTE】
If there is a problem in the transmission pat h, video or audio may be interr upted. Pl ease check the
items above. If the problem still cannot be solved, shorten t he length of the twisted pair cabl e.
