How to Install IOGEAR Cinema 4K DisplayPort HDBaseT-Lite Extender

Begin by planning your routing path for the transmitter and receiver and identifying a reliable Cat5e/6/6a run that minimizes interference from power lines and other cabling. Position the transmitter near your DisplayPort source device and the receiver near the target display. Connect the DisplayPort source to the transmitter’s DisplayPort input, and connect the receiver’s DisplayPort output to the display. Run the Cat5e/6/6a cable between the two units, ensuring the cable is firmly seated in the ports and routed through clean pathways with minimal bend-radius to preserve signal integrity. If your installation includes control or audio channels, enable and configure any EDID or audio passthrough options according to your display’s requirements. Finally, power the transmitter and receiver with the supplied adapters, power them on, and verify that 4K video and audio are being transmitted cleanly to the display. For best results, keep cables away from potential sources of EMI, such as large motors or wireless devices, and test the setup across the full distance to confirm performance at your chosen resolution and refresh rate.

To optimize performance, group the cat cables in dedicated conduits where possible and label connectors for future maintenance. If your install includes multiple displays, consider staggering receiver placements to reduce crosstalk and ensure consistent signal quality. Our recommended practice is to test the link with a known-good 4K source and a certified 4K display to validate color accuracy, alignment, and timing before final commissioning. While the extender is designed for straightforward deployment, always refer to your organization’s AV standards and IT policies to ensure safe and compliant integration into existing networks and rooms.
