how to install SIIG 4K 60Hz HDMI Over Cat6 Extender with Loopout & IR

Before you begin, verify that your Cat6 cables are rated for high‑speed HDMI extension and that displays and source devices support 4K at 60Hz. Ensure you have two power supplies ready and that you have identified the sender and receiver units in your setup to avoid confusion during installation.

Step 1: Connect the HDMI source device (such as a Blu‑ray player, computer, or media streamer) to the extender’s HDMI input using a high‑quality HDMI cable.

Step 2: If you want a local display at the source location, connect a display to the HDMI loop‑out port with another HDMI cable.

Step 3: Run a Cat6 cable from the sender unit to the receiver unit, keeping runs as clean and shielded as possible to minimize interference. Use standard, well‑made cables for best results.

Step 4: At the remote display location, connect the HDMI output of the receiver to your distant monitor or projector using an HDMI cable. This allows the audience to view the content from the receiver position.

Step 5: Attach the 3.5mm IR emitter to the sender or source device and the 3.5mm IR receiver to the display location, enabling remote control functionality across the extended link. If you do not need IR control, you can leave these ports unused.

Step 6: Connect both units to power using the included 5V/1A DC adapters. If you’re installing in a setup with multiple power zones, you can place power supplies on separate outlets for redundancy. Once powered, press the reset buttons if you need to restore factory settings or re‑initialize the link after plugging in cables.

Step 7: Power on your source and displays. Verify that the video appears on the remote display and that the local loop‑out (if used) continues to show content. Test the IR control by using the remote to operate functions from the remote location and ensure responses are timely and accurate. Adjust as needed for optimal picture quality and audio alignment.

Tip: For best results, ensure the Cat6 run is free from excessive electromagnetic interference, and keep cables away from power lines or fluorescent fixtures. If you encounter issues with compatibility or handshake between devices, a simple power cycle of both units usually resolves most problems.
