Poorly constructed HDMI cables can negatively impact performance and may not support all of the features included with your connected source devices. - Do not place the transmitter or receiver inside a cabinet or other location where they will not have a clear view of the room. Refer to the following setup diagrams to arrange your transmitter and receiver. For best performance the transmitter and receiver should face each other, with the receiver mounted vertically to the wall next to the TV (not behind the TV) or upside-down on the ceiling next to the project, ensuring that the Rocketfish and WiHD logos can be seen from the position in the room where the transmitter will be located.
