3. Connecteu el cable Ethernet: Connect a Cat5e/6/7/8 Ethernet cable from the UTP port on the Transmitter unit to the UTP port on the Receiver unit. For one-to-many setups, connect the Transmitter's UTP port to a Gigabit Ethernet switch, and then connect multiple Receiver units to the same switch using separate Ethernet cables.
4. Connect the HDMI Display: Connecteu un cable HDMI des del SORTIDA HDMI port on the Receiver unit to your remote display device (e.g., TV, monitor, projector).
5. Connexió d'alimentació: Connect the provided DC 5V power adapters to both the Transmitter and Receiver units, then plug them into a power outlet. The PWR indicator light should illuminate.

• Estat del senyal: The STA (Status) indicator light will blink when an HDMI signal is detected and being transmitted/received. A solid STA light indicates a stable connection.
• Automatic IP: The Receiver unit will automatically acquire an IP address from your network, requiring no manual configuration.
• One-to-Many Operation: For broadcasting to multiple displays, ensure all Receiver units are connected to the same Gigabit Ethernet switch as the Transmitter. The system will automatically distribute the HDMI signal to all connected receivers.
• Local Loopout: If a local display is connected to the Transmitter's HDMI OUT port, it will mirror the signal being sent to the remote Receiver(s).
