The Gefen HDMI CAT-5 MS Extreme
The HDMI CAT-5 MS Extreme Extender extends your HDTV display up to 300
feet away from your HDTV source using two CAT-5 cables. It is equipped with
HDMI (high definition multimedia interface) connectors and is capable of sup-
porting DVI (digital visual interface) equipment when used with a HDMI to DVI
Adapter, providing greater flexibility and options when integrating several home
theater components.
How It Works
The HDMI CAT-5 Extreme-S sender unit sits next to your computer, set-top box
or DVD player source. Cables supplied with the HDMI CAT-5 MS Extreme con-
nect your DVI or HDMI source to the send unit. The HDMI CAT-5 Extreme-R re-
ceive unit sits next to your HDTV display - up to 300 feet away. The display plugs
into the back of the HDMI CAT-5 MS Extreme-R receiver unit. Two CAT-5 cables
connect the sender and the receiver units to each other.
INTRODUCTION
READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE HDMI CAT-5 MS EXTREME
The HDMI CAT-5 MS Extreme units are housed in a metal box for better RF• shielding.
Your CAT-5 cable should not exceed 300 feet.•
If you do not need DDC or HDCP data you can use a single CAT-5 cable for the• video only. The DDC will not be connected. (For further information, see our
Terminology section on page 9.) If HDCP is required, both CAT-5 cables must
be used between the sender and receiver units.
If the source requires EDID present, you can use the Gefen HDMI Detective to• provide EDID information to your source but will not transmit HDCP.
Shielded CAT6 with metal RJ-45 connectors is recommended to protect from• random flashes caused by EMI.
Power supply for the receiver should not be connected unless you are using• one CAT5 or going over a distance of 200ft.
Extensions over 130ft. require you to manually EQ your signal (see page 4).•
Extensions under 130ft. use Auto EQ (which is on by default) (see page 4).•
The extender is factory set to Auto EQ which will work for distances under 130• ft.

receiving unit is not on, please check to make sure that the RJ-45 cables are not
crossed (DDC to video and video to DDC).

The HDMI CAT-5 MS Extreme has built-in auto equalization that will
automatically tune out any unwanted video noise. This feature is reliable with
premium cable runs up to a maximum of 130 feet. It may be necessary to disable
this feature if there is either no video being displayed on initial start-up, there is
video noise in the image, or the cable run exceeds 130 feet. First, verify that all
the proper connections have been made and that all devices are powered on
before attempting to disable auto equalization.

MANUAL EQUALIZATION
The sender and receiver units both have sets of dip switches located on the
underside of their casings. There is a piece of silver metallic tape that must
be removed to expose these dip switches. Each unit carries a bank of 4 dip
switches. Dip switches 1 and 2 on both the sending and receiving units are used
in this procedure. Dip switches 3 and 4 are not used. By default, all dip switches
on the sending and receiving units should be in the OFF position (Auto EQ On).
To turn off auto equalization, turn dip switch 1 on the receiving unit to the ON
position (Auto EQ off). With this setting please follow the steps below to equalize
the picture.
Insert a small flat head tool into the trim pot on the receiver unit.1.
Turn the trim pot in a clockwise fashion until it comes to a stop. Do not force2. the trim pot beyond this point. Doing so may break the trim pot.
Slowly turn the trim pot counter-clockwise in millimeter increments until the3. image stabilizes and all video noise disappears.
Carefully remove the adjustment tool.4.
NOTE: If your cable run is beyond 130 feet, or the following steps do not produce
any video, it may be necessary to increase the boost from the sending unit. Use
the chart below to increase the boost by changing the sender dip switches. Once
a new boost setting is set, repeat steps 1 through 4 from above.
Sender Dip Switch Settings
Setting Switch 1 Switch 2
No Boost (Default) OFF ON
Medium Boost OFF OFF
High Boost ON OFF
Not Used ON ON
Receiver Dip Switch Settings
Setting Switch 1 Switch 2
Manual EQ ON OFF
Auto EQ (Default) OFF OFF
Adjustment Guidelines:
Strong boost should not be used on stranded cables. Strong boosting will1. cause pixels or no picture on these cables.
Using the wrong settings will not damage the units; it will either produce no2. image or a noisy image.
To eliminate the possibility of cross talk and interference, cables must be3. terminated with 568B scheduling. (See page 6 for details)
No Boost should be set when using Auto EQ.4.
