Introduction
Thank you for choosing Lightware HDMI-TPS-RX220AK receiver. The device offers seamless HDBaseT™ integration with additional Lightware product lines and developments, including TPS matrices and 25G boards. The device receives digital video at a resolution up to 4K, as well as audio and control up to 170 meters over a single CAT cable. Furthermore, the device utilizes control over USB KVM and can be remotely powered over TPS link with PoE (IEEE 802.3af), a useful array of features to further simplify the operation for system integrators and users.
The product is compatible with any third-party HDBaseT™ device.HDBaseT™ and the HDBaseT Alliance logo are trademarks of the HDBaseT Alliance.Compatible DevicesThe receiver is compatible with other Lightware TPS devices, matrix TPS and TPS2 boards, 25G boards, as well as third-party HDBaseT-extenders, displays, but not compatible with the phased-out TPS-90 extenders.
The receiver is PoE-compatible (Power over Ethernet, can be powered remotely via CATx cable) but the device can receive only power and cannot send power to other PoE-compatible devices.

Connecting Steps
CATxConnect the receiver and the TPS transmitter/matrix output board by a CATx cable via the TPS connector.HDMI inConnect the receiver and the HDMI source device (e.g. Blu-ray player) by an HDMI cable via the HDMI input port.HDMI outConnect the sink devices (e.g. projector) to the HDMI output 1 and 2 ports by HDMI cables.Audio outOptionally for analog audio output: connect an audio device (e.g. audio amplifier) to the analog audio output port by an audio cable.IR inOptionally for Infrared extension:IR out
- Connect the IR emitter to the IR OUT port of the receiver, and/or
- Connect the IR detector to the IR IN port of the receiver.
USB-AOptionally for USB HID extension: connect the USB HID devices to the receiver (preferably mouse and keyboard).LANOptionally connect the receiver to a LAN in order to control the device.RS-232Optionally for RS-232 extension: connect a controller/controlled device (e.g. touch panel) to the RS-232 port.PowerConnect the power adaptor to the DC input on the receiver first, then to the AC power socket.
See the available powering options of the receiver on the Powering Options section on the other side.
Mounting
To mount the receiver Lightware supplies optional accessories for different usage. There are two kinds of mounting kits with similar fixing methods. The receiver has two mounting holes with an inner thread on the bottom side. Fasten the device by the screws enclosed with the accessory.
The Under-desk double mounting kit makes it easy to mount a single device on any flat surface, e.g. furniture. The 1U high rack shelf provides mounting holes for fastening two half-rack or four quarter-rack-sized units. Pocket-sized devices can also be fastened on the shelf. To order mounting accessories please contact [email protected].Using different (e.g. longer) screws may cause damage to the device.The receiver is half-rack-sized.
Locking DC Plug
Twist 90° clockwise to lock.
Powering Options
- Using local PSUConnect the power adaptor to the DC input on the receiver first, then to the AC power socket.2 Using PoE with connecting a transmitterConnect the TPS IN (PoE) port of the receiver to the TPS+PoE output port of the TPS-PI-1P1 power injector by a CATx cable as well as connect the TPS output port of the transmitter to the TPS port of the TPS-PI-1P1 by a CATx cable.3 Using PoE with connecting a matrix switcher or an output boardConnect the TPS IN (PoE) port of the receiver to the PoEcompatible TPS output port of the matrix or output board by a CATx cable.
In case of connecting the receiver to an output board of the matrix always connect an external PSU to the board. For detailed information please read the user’s manual of the matrix.The Ethernet port does not support PoE. Only the TPS port supports the PoE function.If both remote and local power sources are connected, remote power will be used.
