Notes:
1. Test to make sure the entire installation works properly before pulling cables
through ceilings/walls.
2. To achieve maximum distance and performance, 24 AWG solid wire Cat5e/6
cable must be used. The use of stranded wire Cat5e/6 cable or cable with a
gauge size higher than 24 AWG will result in shorter extension distance. All
Tripp Lite N202-Series Cat6 cables are made with 24 AWG solid wire cabling.
3. Make sure that the power to all devices you are connecting is turned off prior to
installation.
1. Connect the built-in Micro HDMI cable of the transmitter unit to the
Micro HDMI source.
2. Optional: Connect an HDMI monitor to the LOCAL port on the
B126-1A1-U-MCRO transmitter using a Tripp Lite P568-Series
HDMI Cable.
3. Connect the included USB Micro-B Cable between the transmitter unit
and a USB port on the source or a USB wall outlet.
4. Connect the RJ45 port on the transmitter to the RJ45 port on the
receiver using Cat5e/6 cable.
Note: See the installation diagram for maximum extension distance and video
resolutions.
5. Connect the built-in HDMI cable of the receiver unit to an HDMI monitor
input port.
6. Connect the included USB Micro-B cable between the receiver unit and
a USB port on the display or a USB wall outlet.

Installation
7. Turn on the power to the Micro HDMI source and HDMI display. The
green RJ45 LEDs on the transmitter and receiver units will illuminate
to indicate they are receiving power. The orange RJ45 LEDs on the
transmitter and receiver units will illuminate to indicate they are
receiving a signal from the source.
8. If necessary, adjust the Equalization control on the receiver unit to
improve the video image.
Note: An improper Equalization setting can cause the monitor not to display a
picture at all. Try each Equalization setting until an acceptable image is displayed.
Troubleshooting
If you are unable to get an acceptable image after following the installation
instructions, try the troubleshooting tips below.
1. Are the USB Micro-B cables that came with the product connected
and plugged into a working power source? For the product to
function properly, the transmitter and receiver must be connected to and
receiving power from the USB Micro-B cables.
2. Was the power to the Micro HDMI source turned off prior to
installation? If not, restart.
3. What resolution are you trying to reach? See the Product Features
and Installation sections in this manual for details on maximum
distance and resolution. The shorter the extension distance, the higher
the resolution you will be able to obtain. If you are not able to get an
acceptable image, try lowering your computer’s video resolution or
adjusting the refresh rate.
4. What type of cabling are you using? Inferior cabling can result in poor
performance, so it is important you use cables that can support the
video resolution you are trying to obtain. To achieve maximum distance
and resolution, 24 AWG solid-wire UTP cable (such as Tripp Lite’s N202Series cables) must be used.

Troubleshooting
5. Test your cables to ensure they are working properly. For example,
connect your Cat5e/6 cable between a computer and a network to verify
that it establishes a network connection.
6. Do you have any patch panels or other devices in between the
transmitter and receiver units? Tripp Lite’s Micro HDMI to HDMI
over Cat5 extender kit was designed to be connected directly from the
transmitter to the receiver via UTP cable. The more connection points
that are between the source and the remote monitor, the more likely
signal degradation will occur, causing poor performance. If you have a
patch panel or other device in between, it should be removed from the
installation.
7. Do you have a splitter, switch or other device in between the
computer and transmitter, or in between the receiver and display?
Tripp Lite’s Micro HDMI to HDMI over Cat5 extender kit was designed for
the transmitter to connect directly with the source computer, and for the
receiver to connect directly to the display. If you have a splitter, switch,
or other device in between, it should be removed from the installation.
8. Check your cabling for any damage that may have occurred during
installation. If a cable connector is loosened from pulling through
ceilings/walls or the cable jacket is damaged, causing the wiring to be
exposed, you will not be able to achieve maximum performance.
9. Are the transmitter and/or receiver units located in an area
that exposes them to elevated temperatures? If the product is
overheating, it will not function properly.
