1 Introduction Welcome to Kramer Electronics! Since 1981, Kramer Electronics has been providing a world of unique, creative, and affordable solutions to the vast range of problems that confront the video, audio, presentation, and broadcasting professional on a daily basis.
2 Getting Started We recommend that you: • Unpack the equipment carefully and save the original box and packaging materials for possible future shipment • Review the contents of this user manual Use Kramer high performance high-resolution cables i ! 2.1 Go to http://www.kramerelectronics.com to check for up-to-date user manuals, application programs, and to check if firmware upgrades are available (where appropriate).
3 Overview The PT-101H4 is a high−performance repeater and format converter for HDMI signals. The unit combines previous HDMI formats and Ethernet to provide HDMI (v1.4 HEAC) and de−embedded audio over S/PDIF. The PT-101H4 HDMI Repeater and Format Converter: • Extends the transmission range to up to 35m (115ft) with 1080p @60Hz resolution • Features reclocking and equalization • Provides HDMI support on the output • Supports up to 2.25Gbps bandwidth • Combines an HDMI 1.
In particular, HDMI: • Provides a simple interface between any audio/video source, such as a settop box, DVD player, or A/V receiver and video monitor, such as a digital flat LCD / plasma television (DTV), over a single lengthy cable SIMPLICITY - With video and multi-channel audio combined into a single cable, the cost, complexity, and confusion of multiple cables currently used in A/V systems is reduced.
3.3 Defining EDID The Extended Display Identification Data (EDID) is a data-structure provided by a display, to describe its capabilities to a graphics card (that is connected to the display’s source). The EDID enables the PT-101H4 to “know” what kind of monitor is connected to the output. The EDID includes the manufacturer’s name, the product type, the timing data supported by the display, the display size, luminance data and (for digital displays only) the pixel mapping data.

5 Connecting the PT-101H4 To connect the PT-101H4 as illustrated in the example in Figure 2: 1. Connect the HDMI source (for example, a Blu-ray disc player) to the INPUT HDMI connector on the front of the PT-101H4. 2. Connect the ETHERNET RJ-45 connector on the front of the PT-101H4 to the LAN using CAT 5 twisted pair cable. For Ethernet connectivity, an HDMI 1.4 version output cable must be used. For best performance, use Kramer cables. 3.
