1.0 INTRODUCTION Thank you for purchasing this HDMI® extension/distribution system from Audio Authority®. The HXE-11 Kit (1341T and 1341R) digitally transmits HDMI signals over a single RG-6 coax cable to achieve long distances while preserving high quality 1080p video with embedded multi-channel audio such as Dolby® TrueHD™. The system can be used as a point-to-point extender, or additional 1341R receivers can be daisy chained to distribute source media to multiple video displays.
3.0 SYSTEM DESIGN Consider the following factors and basic precautions to ensure the best possible performance. • Do not use soldered BNC connectors or adapters. RG-6 cables MUST be terminated with either crimp-on or compression type BNC connectors. • Use high quality RG-6 coaxial cable. The HXE-11 can transmit HD video over a single coax cable using high quality RG-6 and terminating with good crimp-on BNC connectors.
Daisy Chain Distribution Application HDMI CABLE SOURCE NOTE: AC POWER CONNECTIONS ARE NOT SHOWN. HDTV 1341T HDTV 1341R RG-6 HDTV 1341R RG-6 1341R RECEIVER “LOOP OUT” RG-6 4.0 COAXIAL CABLE LENGTH AND FABRICATION Use high quality RG-6. Audio Authority tests using Commscope F660BV Brightwire yielded excellent results; use equivalent cable or better in all installations. Maximum cable length depends on total bandwidth (video resolution plus audio).
5.0 INSTALLATION • Always use high quality RG-6 coaxial cable. 800-322-8346 • 859-233-4599 • www.audioauthority.com 800-322-8346 • 859-233-4599 • www.audioauthority.com • Do not bend coaxial cables below the manufacturer’s recommended radius. Digital Video Single Coax Extender • Do not route coax cable parallel to AC power lines. Digital Video Single Coax Extender • Connect coaxial cables and HDMI cables first, then connect power supplies.
6.0 TROUBLESHOOTING • Poor image quality: likely to be a result of source media. Some sources, (e.g. cable and satellite) compress video output resulting in poor image quality. Connect the source directly to a display via a short HDMI® cable to compare. • Intermittent signal dropout: RG-6 and/or HDMI cable is longer than rated distance for source signal bandwidth. Reduce cable length, reduce resolution, and/or reduce audio format to decrease the bandwidth required.
