TP-873xr/TP-874xr Quick Start Guide
This guide helps you install and use your TP-873xr/TP-874xr for the first time. Go to www.kramerav.com/downloads/TP-873xr to download the latest user manual and check if firmware
upgrades are available.

Step 1: Check what’s in the box

TP 873xr HDMI 4K Line Transmitter or
1 Power adapter and cord per device
1 Quick start guide
TP 874xr HDMI 4K Line Receiver
4 Rubber feet
1 Bracket set

IMPORTANT NOTICE!

We highly recommend using only Kramer UNIKAT cables with these products. If using 3rd party shielded CAT-6A cables, both ends of the shield must be soldered to the connectors for the products to function properly. Do not use any jumpers, unshielded wall plates or mid­span cable connections. These extenders are not compatible with HDBaseT technologies. Prior to signal extension, ensure that the extension line cable is lying straight and not coiled.

Step 2: Get to know your TP 873xr and TP 874xr

Step 3: Mount TP-873xr/TP-874xr

Install TP-873xr/TP-874xr using one of the following methods:
Attach the rubber feet and place the unit on a flat surface.
Fasten a bracket (included) on each side of the unit and attach it to a flat surface
(see www.kramerav.com/downloads/TP-873xr).
Mount the unit in a rack using the recommended rack adapter (see www.kramerav.com/product/TP-873xr).
Ensure that the environment (e.g., maximum ambient temperature & air flow) is compatible for the device.
Avoid uneven mechanical loading.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be
used for avoiding overloading of the circuits.
Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.

Step 4: Connect the inputs and outputs

Always switch OFF the power on each device before connecting it to your TP-873xr/TP-874xr.
To achieve specified extension distances, use the recommended Kramer cables available at www.kramerav.com/product/TP-873xr. Using third-party cables may cause damage!
