Introduction
Thank you for purchasing the LINDY HDMI over Ethernet Extender. This HDMI Extender allows
you to distribute an HDMI signal up to 1080p via Ethernet network to multiple displays for
applications such as digital signage, public display and large scale presentations. With support
for crystal-clear digital video, these extenders can take your distribution system to the next level.
These extenders convert the HDMI signal to IP broadcast signals. Network devices can be used
to distribute the signals. These extenders support 1-to-1, 1-to-many and also many-to-many
configurations, with the requirement of using managed network switches supporting broadcast
protocols. Because of bandwidth requirements this video broadcasts should use their own
dedicated network connections or should be used in a separate port based VLAN.
Features
• HDMI signal extension through Ethernet
• Ability to cascade up to 3 layers of network switches
• HDMI with HDCP support, 480i up to 1080p60@8bit supported, not 3D capable
• Support for IR remote control back channel (IR: 940nm, 38kHz IR signals)
Package Contents
• No.38126: Transmitter (TX) and Receiver (RX) or No.38129 Receiver (RX) only
• 2x / 1x Multi Country Power Supply with 4 adapters for EURO, US, UK, AUS/CN
• This manual
Installation
1. Before connecting any extender equipment please switch off all devices
2. Connect the HDMI display(s) to the Receiver(s) using HDMI cable
3. Connect the HDMI source(s) to the Transmitter(s) using HDMI cable
4. If required connect the IR transmitter cable(s) and IR receiver cable(s) to the Extender
units and place them in appropriate position to the HDMI devices
5. Connect the power supplies
1-to-many configuration with multiple Receivers (RX) / displays
6. Only use network switches that at least support port based VLAN management functions
and the broadcast protocol as well. Configure your network switch so that a separate VLAN
is used for the extender units. If your switch also allows you to define ports as OUTPUT or
INPUT you may also use this function. (The web configuration page of the Extender units
is not password protected and therefore open to any user!)
7. The IP and MAC address of the TX and RX units must be different. The units can be
configured via web browser. Please refer to section Network Setup of TX and RX
Many-to-many configuration with multiple TX and multiple RX
8. Configure your network switch so that functionally linked TX and RX each use a separate
VLAN.
9. Connect your TX and RX Extenders to the network ports and power on all devices
This procedure refers to firmware v.1.09 dated JUL 29_2015. It is subject to change without notice.

Network Setup of TX and RX Extender units
This setup has to be used if you are using 1-to-many or many-to-many configurations.
HDMI Extender TX and RX are setup via web browser. The default IP address of TX is
192.168.168.55 and of RX is 192.168.168.56. An individual IP address must be assigned to each
unit, i.e. IP:192.168.168.XX (XX:1-255), Subnet mask 255.255.255.0, and MAC:00:0b:78:XX:XX-
XX (XX:01-FF).
Step 1: Assign the computer's IP address, i.e. 192.168.168.11, through Control Panel, Network
Connections, Local Area Connections, Status, Properties, Internet Protocol (TCP/IP). Press OK
to save the configuration.
Step 2: Turn on the Extender device to be configured. Use an Ethernet Cable to connect the
computer and the device directly.
off and disconnect the device.
If you have any problems try to ping the connected device with the new IP address. You will
receive the reply if the connection is established.
Trouble Shooting
• Please only use HDTV/SDTV resolutions like 1080, 720, 576 and 480. Other resolutions
may require to copy the monitor EDID data into the TX.
• Please check if all power LEDs are lit. Eventually exchange / replace the power supply
• Please check if all cable connections are seated well
• Please check if you can ping the extender units
• IR support is limited to 38kHz signals, IR signals in other frequency ranges, i.e. several Sky
receivers, are not supported
• If you are not using a separated network, i.e. via VLAN configuration, your network may
suffer from extremely high traffic causing certain network components to fail. If this is the
case please contact an experienced network technician to set up your network. This HDMI
Extender is NOT designed to be used in a network with a wireless broadband router!
• To do a factory reset press the RESET button for more than 10 seconds
• If you cannot locate the problem – and if it is NOT just a network problem – please contact
LINDY support team. The worldwide contact information is available from the LINDY
website.

Step 3: Use a web browser to access the unit
(TX:192.168.168.55,
RX:192.168.168.56).
System menu and setup the required IP address, subnet
mask, and MAC address as mentioned above. It is highly
recommended to label the units with this setting. If
you ever forget this setting you may have to reset the
units to factory default values!
