Yes, the extender includes bi-directional IR and RS-232 pass-through, enabling control of your source device from the display side, and vice-versa.

What cable type is recommended for optimal performance?

For best performance and to achieve the maximum specified distances and resolutions, a high-quality Cat.6A U/UTP or F/UTP network cable is recommended.

Does the extender support audio extraction?

Yes, it features 3.5mm analog audio outputs with de-embedding, allowing you to extract audio from the HDMI signal and connect to external speakers or amplifiers.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The Lindy Cat.6A HDMI 4K60 & Type C HDBaseT 3.0 KVM Extender comes with a 2-year warranty.

Troubleshooting

No video signal is displayed

Verify all HDMI and Cat.6A cable connections are secure. Ensure the Cat.6A cable is of good quality and properly terminated. Check that both the transmitter and receiver units are powered on. Test with a different source or display if possible. Confirm EDID settings are appropriate for the connected display.

USB devices are not recognized

Ensure the USB devices are connected to the receiver unit's USB 2.0 ports. Verify the USB connection between the transmitter and the source device is active. Check the transmitter's USB port for damage. Try a different USB device to rule out device incompatibility.

Intermittent signal loss or poor video quality

The quality or length of the Cat.6A cable may be insufficient for the resolution and distance. Try a shorter or higher-quality Cat.6A cable. Check for potential sources of electromagnetic interference near the Cat.6A cable run. Ensure the power supply is adequate and connected securely.

Audio is not transmitted

Confirm that audio is enabled on the source device. Check the 3.5mm analog audio output connection on the receiver/transmitter. Ensure the audio signal is being de-embedded correctly; verify source audio settings.

Type C input not working

Ensure the source device's Type C port supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode and USB 2.0. Verify that the 60W Power Delivery function is supported and enabled on the source device if required. Try connecting the USB-C cable directly to the transmitter's Type C port.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • Supports high-resolution 4K@60Hz video with HDR for superior image quality.
  • Extends multiple signal types (AV, USB, RS-232, IR) over a single Cat.6A cable.
  • Convenient Type C input with 60W Power Delivery simplifies laptop connections.
  • PoC functionality reduces installation complexity and power requirements.
  • Includes KVM capabilities for remote computer control.

Cons

  • Maximum distance and resolution are dependent on Cat.6A cable quality.
  • Requires a dedicated Cat.6A network cable for optimal performance.
  • HDBaseT 3.0 technology may require specific network configurations for some setups.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

  1. Connect the HDMI source device (e.g., PC, laptop) to the transmitter's HDMI or Type C input port.
  2. Connect the display device (e.g., monitor, projector) to the receiver's HDMI output port.
  3. Connect the transmitter and receiver units using a high-quality Cat.6A network cable (shielded or unshielded).
  4. Connect USB devices (keyboard, mouse) to the USB ports on the receiver for KVM control.
  5. Connect IR emitters/receivers and RS-232 devices if remote control or serial communication is needed.
  6. Connect the included AC power adapter to either the transmitter or receiver unit (depending on PoC configuration) and a power outlet. The PoC function allows power to be transmitted over the Cat.6A cable.
  7. Ensure EDID settings are configured correctly via the DIP switch if needed.

Compatibility:

  • Supports devices with HDMI 2.0 outputs.
  • Type C input supports DisplayPort Alternate Mode, USB 2.0, and 60W Power Delivery.

  • Compatible with Windows, macOS, and Linux operating systems for USB 2.0 functionality.
  • Supports HDCP 2.2 for protected content transmission.

Care:

  • Keep the units in a well-ventilated area to prevent overheating. Operating temperature is 0-40°C.
  • Clean the exterior with a soft, dry cloth. Avoid using liquid cleaners or solvents.
  • Ensure all cable connections are secure but not over-tightened.
