System Setup With Dxlink Twisted Pair 4K Transmitters And Receivers - AMX DGX1600-ENC Hardware Reference Manual

System Setup with DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Transmitters and Receivers

DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Input and Output Boards must be used in conjunction with AMX DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Transmitters and
Receivers or other AMX DXLink 4K signal management solutions. This combination creates an end-to-end extender solution for
transmission of HDMI (or DVI via adapter cable) over twisted pair cable.
Compatible DXLink Transmitters and Receivers are listed on page 97.

System setup options are listed in the table below.

For TX and RX installation details, see the Transmitter and Receiver's Quick Start Guide or Hardware Reference Manual.

When compatible Transmitters and Receivers are installed in conjunction with DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Boards, image adjustment
and EDID scaling is automatically applied. For almost every installation, the automatic features on Transmitters and Receivers
result in a quality image on the monitor.
If the installation has special requirements and needs additional adjustment, see page 163. If you need additional information on
the Transmitters and Receivers or their specifications, refer to the Hardware Reference Manual – DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Transmitters
and Receivers at www.amx.com.
The distance from a Transmitter to a Input Board can be up to 262 feet (80 m) and another 262 feet (80 m) from the Output Board
to the Receiver.
IMPORTANT: Twisted pair cable runs for Input and Output Boards shall only be run within a common building. "Common building" is
defined as: Where the walls of the structure(s) are physically connected and the structure(s) share a single ground reference.
NOTE: Along with the video signal, the DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Boards support embedded digital audio from the Transmitters.
Options for DXLink System Setup
The following table contains several options in an Enova DGX Switcher for using DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Input and/or Output
Boards in conjunction with DXLink Twisted pair 4K Transmitters and Receivers.
NOTE: Transmitters and Receivers can be also be used together as a standalone solution without a switcher (Wallplate Transmitters
connected directly to Receivers must use DXLink power injectors); see the Hardware Reference Manual – DXLink Twisted Pair 4K
Transmitters and Receivers.

* If the board is a DXLink Fiber Board or DXLink Twisted Pair Board, it will need the appropriate Transmitter or Receiver; see the
table on page 40.
NOTE: Solecis 4K Digital Switchers (SDX-414-DX and SDX-514M-DX) have a DXLink Twisted Pair 4K output port that optionally
provides source point switching and distance transmission to an Enova DGX DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Input Board for hub-style or
campus-wide distribution.
