How to Install Tripp Lite DisplayPort over Fiber Extender Kit

• Plan your layout — Determine the location of the DisplayPort source (computer or media player) and the display endpoint. Ensure both transmitter and receiver have unobstructed fiber routing and appropriate mounting options.
• Connect the DisplayPort source — Attach the DisplayPort output from your source device to the transmitter’s DP input using a suitable DisplayPort cable, ensuring a secure connection and proper seating.
• Link the fiber backbone — Run the multimode LC fiber cable between the transmitter and receiver. Securely connect the fiber ends to the LC connectors on each unit, making sure the connectors are clean and fully seated.
• Attach the display endpoint — Connect the receiver’s DisplayPort output to the target display using a DisplayPort cable, ensuring the display is configured for the correct input source and resolution.
• Power and configure — Supply power to both the transmitter and receiver units. If your installation uses RS‑232 or IR control, connect the appropriate control devices and verify control commands. Test the video and control paths, adjusting any necessary alignment, EDID settings, or resolution parameters to optimize performance for your environment.
