IMPORTANT NOTICE!
We highly recommend using only Kramer UNIKAT cables with these products. If using 3rd party shielded CAT-6A cables, both ends of the shield must be soldered to the connectors for the products to function properly. Do not use any jumpers, unshielded wall plates or midspan cable connections. These extenders are not compatible with HDBaseT technologies. Prior to signal extension, ensure that the extension line cable is lying straight and not coiled.
Step 2: Get to know your PT-871xr

Step 3: Install the PT-871xr
Install PT-871xr using one of the following methods:
- Attach the rubber feet and place the unit on a flat surface.
- Fasten a bracket (included) on each side of the unit and attach it to a flat surface (see www.kramerav.com/downloads/PT-871xr).
- Mount the unit in a rack using the recommended rack adapter (see www.kramerav.com/product/PT-871xr).
- Ensure that the environment (e.g., maximum ambient temperature & air flow) is compatible for the device.
- Ensure that the environment (e.g. maximum ambient temperature & air flow is compatible for te device.
- Avoid uneven mechanical loading.
- Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used for avoiding overloading of the circuits.
- Reliable earthing of rack-mounted equipment should be maintained.
