available for future reference.
Introduction
HDMI-TPS-TX86 and -RX86 twisted pair HDBaseTTM extenders provide extension of
uncompressed 4K/UHD video with embedded audio for long distances over a single CATx cable.
The extender offers uni-directional RS-232 and IR pass-through on the same CATx cable that
carries the video signal. The TPS extenders support full HDCP and EDID compliance and work
on all standard AV resolutions and also 120 Hz 3D signals. 12V remote powering is available
through the single CATx cable, but a local power supply can also be used.
Compatible Devices
It is not recommended to be used with third-party HDBaseTTM devices due to the special
remote powering feature of the device.

TX RX
5: Ground
The TPS working mode between the transmitter and the receiver parties is determined by the
mode set in them. Both parties inuence the setting that determines the nal TPS transmission
mode. The following TPS modes are dened:
Long reach (LR): Longer CATx cable length, less bandwidth (limited resolution). The
LPPF mode is not available in LR TPS link mode.
HDBaseTTM (HDBT): more bandwidth (higher resolutions), shorter CATx cable length. If
no video is present, the units change to LPPF mode automatically.
Low Power Partial Functionality (LPPF): Only RS-232 and IR are extended.
Toggling Between TPS Link Modes
The toggle switch on the extenders can be used to toggle between
the LR and Auto TPS modes. If both units have Auto state and there
is valid video signal on the transmitter, the common mode will be
HDBT. If the video signal disappears, devices go into LPPF mode.
TPS mode between an extender and a port of a matrix
board
If an extender and a TPS matrix board
are paired, the board forces the extender
to use the settings of the matrix. The
extender’s TPS mode switch has no effect.
Always use the Auto mode with
third-party devices!

Bi-directional Pass-through Data Lines
The direction of the video extension is xed from TX towards RX, but the pass-through data
lines are bi-directional. It means the RS-232 and IR source and sink devices can be connected
either to the TX or the RX.
Infra-Red (IR)
One emitter and one detector is enough for remote controlling one IR sink device. If there is an IR
sink device to be controlled next to the TX and the other one is next to the RX, two emitter- detector
pairs are needed. The IR emitter and the detector have standard 3.5 mm TRS (jack) connectors.
The emitter’s plug has two poles (mono) and the detector’s plug has three poles (stereo).

IR extension is available only with point-to-point connection of the extenders.

RS-232
Third-party devices with standard RS-232 port are supported, as the extenders work in passthrough mode. TX and RX provide a 3-pole Phoenix connector. Use straight-serial cable to connect
a DTE device to an extender and use a cross serial cable in case of pairing a DCE device to the
other TPS extender. The RS-232 options – the baud rate and the parity bits – are set on the third
party devices and they can be anything. The extenders support any kind of serial settings.
