Sure! Here is a step-by-step guide on how to set up the Sewell HL10 HDMI Over Cat5e/6 Extender:

1. Transmitter Unit Setup:
- Connect the HDMI output port of your video source (e.g., computer, Blu-ray player, gaming console) to the HDMI input port on the transmitter unit using a regular HDMI cable.
- If your model supports bi-directional IR control, connect the IR extension cable to the IR port on the video source. If not, connect the IR port on the video source to the IR port on the transmitter unit.
- Connect the Ethernet output port on the transmitter unit to an accessible Ethernet port on the local network or directly to the Ethernet input port on the receiver unit using a Cat5e or Cat6 Ethernet cable.
- Plug the power adapter into a power outlet after connecting it to the power input port on the transmitter unit. This provides power to the transmitter and, if Power over Cable is supported, electricity to the receiver unit via the Ethernet cable.

2. Receiver Unit Setup:
- Connect the Ethernet input port on the receiver unit to the other end of the Ethernet cable coming from the transmitter unit.
- Establish a connection between the HDMI output port on the receiver unit and the HDMI input port on your remote display (e.g., TV, projector, monitor) using an HDMI cable.
- If your model supports bi-directional infrared control, connect the IR extension cable from the IR port on the receiver unit to the IR port on the display.
- Connect the power adapter to the power input port on the receiver unit and plug it into a power outlet. This is necessary if your model does not support Power over Cable.

3. Complete Setup:
- Ensure that all connections are secure and properly plugged in.
- Turn on the power to both the transmitter and receiver units.
- Check the LED indicators on both devices to confirm that the power supply and connection are working.
- Activate both the video source and the display device.
- The HDMI signal should now be transmitted across the Cat5e/6 cable from the source to the display.
