Introduction
The TL-FO2-HDC2 is an HDMI 2.0 (18G signal) with HDCP 2.2 support fiber optic
extender that can reach up to 300 meters (984 ft) over a duplex OM3 cable with
common LC terminations. The unit supports HDMI video resolutions up to 4K@60, HDR
video, IR or RS232 pass-through controls, multichannel audio, as well as ARC with
optional optical audio embedding and/or de-embedding. The TL-FO2-HDC2 is also
compatible with HDMI 1.3/1.4 content with HDCP 1.3/1.4 content protection.
The TL-FO2-HDC2 supports two ARC connection modes: HDMI and S/PDIF, which
results in four options to pass audio from the display to the head end. When the receiver
is set to HDMI, audio from the display will pass to the transmitter via the HDMI output
port. When the receiver is set to S/PDIF, audio from the display will pass to the
transmitter via the S/PDIF optical audio port. When the transmitter is set to HDMI,
audio from the receiver will be provided on the HDMI input port. When the transmitter
is set to S/PDIF, audio from the receiver will be provided on the S/PDIF optical audio
port.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance
No image on display
• Ensure that the display device has been set to the correct input.
• Ensure that the HDMI cables used for both the source/transmitter and the
receiver/display are properly connected and are working. Test the HDMI cables
directly from a source to display and ensure their operation.
• Ensure that the fiber optic cable has not been damaged and that it has been
terminated correctly with LC connectors on both ends. A temporary length of
fiber optic cable can be used for testing to ensure that the devices are all
compatible and working properly.
• Ensure proper grounding of the power supply.
Color loss or poor picture quality:
• Ensure that the HDMI cables used for both the source and transmitter and the
receiver and display are properly connected and are of good quality. Test the
HDMI cables directly from a source to display and ensure their picture quality.
• Ensure proper grounding of the power supply.
• If the static becomes stronger or picture quality becomes worse when connecting
the video connectors, this may be due to improper grounding.
• Check the grounding and make sure all the components are properly grounded to
a common ground. Improper grounding may cause damage to the receiver.
