2.1  
Achieving the Best Performance  
To achieve the best performance:  
Use only good quality connection cables (we recommend Kramer high-  
performance, high-resolution cables) to avoid interference, deterioration in  
signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often  
associated with low quality cables)  
Do not secure the cables in tight bundles or roll the slack into tight coils  
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may adversely  
influence signal quality  
Position your Kramer PT-5T/R away from moisture, excessive sunlight and  
dust  
This equipment is to be used only inside a building. It may only be  
connected to other equipment that is installed inside a building.

Identifying the IR Receiver and IR Emitters  
The receiver and emitters can be identified by their size and shape. The receiver is  
large and trapezoidal in shape; the emitters are small and rectangular in shape  
with a rounded top. Both have a 2m (6.6ft) cable attached terminated with a  
3.5mm mini jack.

Connecting the PT-5T/R IR Extender/Repeater  
To connect the PT-5T/R IR Extender/Repeater as illustrated in the example in  
1. Plug the IR receiver into the IR IN 3.5mm mini jack on the front panel of the  
PT-5T.  
2. Plug up to two IR emitters into the OUT 1 and OUT 2 3.5mm mini jacks on  
the front panel of the PT-5T.  
3. Mount each of the IR emitters so that each points at and is within range of  
the relevant media device to be controlled.  
4. Plug up to three IR emitters into the OUT 1, OUT 2 and OUT 3 3.5mm mini  
jacks on the front panel of the PT-5R.  
5. Mount each of the IR emitters so that each points at and is within range of  
the relevant device to be controlled.

6. Connect the PT-5T and the PT-5R together, using TP cable, via the RJ-45  
connectors on the rear panel of both devices.  
7. Connect the power adapter to the 5V DC connector on the rear panel of the  
PT-5T or the PT-5R and to the mains electricity.  
Note: Only one of the devices needs to be connected to a power adapter.

Using the PT-5T/R IR Extender/Repeater  
Use the remote control specific to the device to operate any of the devices  
connected via infrared to the PT-5T and PT-5R. (Use the machine’s original  
remote control or a universal remote control.) The infrared signal from the remote  
control is transmitted:  
From the PT-5T to the device under control or  
From the PT-5T to the PT-5R via the TP cable, and from there to the device  
under control
