CHAPTER 3: SETUP & INSTALLATION 

3. Setup and Installation 

 
3.1 Cabling Considerations 

 

• We recommend mounting and connecting all cabling to the Cyan HDMI  
components before applying power. 
• Make sure that the CAT5/5e/6 cable you intend to use has been tested to comply 
with the T568B wiring specification (See 

Appendix A

).

ENERAL 

 

This section contains figures showing connections with the specific Cyan HDMI 
units. In general, however, the connection and setup procedure at both transmitter 
and receiver ends is as follows: 

NOTE: 

All  units should be cabled and powered on prior to turning on the video source 
device and display. It is recommended to cable/power on receiver unit, transmitter 
unit, then the display, and lastly the video source. 
 
At the transmitter end: 

 
1.

Connect the source video to the Cyan transmitter HDMI INPUT port using an 
HDMI type A cable (If using DVI video an HDMI to DVI adapter is required). 

 
2.

Connect the CAT5/5e/6 cables to the transmitter. PORT 1 is the video signal 
and PORT 2 is the DDC data channel. If you do not need HDCP or DDC data, 
a single CAT5/5e/6 cable can be used on PORT 1. Note that protected content 
will not be displayed in this case. 

 
3.

Apply power to the transmitter. The LED’s on the RJ45 sockets will come 

       on  (see Figure 3-3 for LED status modes) 

 
At the receiver end : 

 
1.   Connect the display to the HDMI OUTPUT connector of the receiver (If a  
      DVI connector is on the display, an HDMI to DVI adapter is required). 
 
2.

Connect the CAT5/5e/6 cables to the UTP connection. PORT 1 is the video 
signal and PORT 2 is the DDC data channel. If you do not need HDCP or DDC 
data, a single CAT5/5e/6 cable can be used on PORT 1. Note that protected 
content will not be displayed in this case. 

 
3.

Apply power. The LED’s will come (see Figure 3-3 for LED status modes)
