Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setting up the Lindy Extender is straightforward:
- Placement: Connect the transmitter module directly to your HDMI source device using the included short extension cable.
- Cabling: Connect an LC OM3 or OM4 simplex fibre optic cable from the transmitter to the receiver.
- Display Connection: Connect the receiver module to your display device.
- Powering: Ensure the receiver is connected to a 5V USB power source using the provided Micro-B USB cable.
Compatibility Note: Always use OM3 or OM4 fibre cabling as lower-grade cables may not support the required bandwidth for 4K60 signals. Care: Keep the fibre optic connectors clean and free of dust. Use protective caps when the modules are not in use to maintain signal integrity. Avoid bending the fibre optic cable at sharp angles, as this can break the glass core.
