Rear Panel Connections to the Switch

Back panel connections defined

IN-1 through IN-6 -- HDMI sources.
OUT-1 through OUT-4:
• IR-IN -- These inputs are used to send IR to the HDBaseT receivers. An IR controller can plug
directly into these inputs. They are a mono-jacks, polarity insensitive (it doesn't matter how
you connect the two wires to the tip and sleeve of the connector), and they accept any voltage
between 3.5V and 15V. This input is for controllers only. You cannot use a standard IR
receiver, it won't hurt anything, it just won't work.
• IR-OUT These outputs are the return IR channels from the HDBaseT. They will drive a con-
troller or a standard 5V IR emitter/flasher. These outputs use a mono jack. The sleeve is
ground and the tip is +5V.
• HDBaseT -- These are the HDBaseT outputs and will drive up to 330ft of Cat5/6 cable to the
HDBaseT receivers. Power is also sent over the Cat5/6 cable and the HDBaseT receiver does
not need a separate power supply.
• Local Out -- These are local HDMI outputs. They are not mirrored outputs, plugging in an
HDMI monitor to one of these outputs will disable the HDBaseT receiver.
• RS-232 -- These allow two way RS-232 signals to be sent to the HDBaseT receiver. These are
straight through connections. They are the same pinout as the main RS-232 control port . The
baudrates can be up to 115K.
• Ethernet -- Each HDBaseT can have an Ethernet channel sent to it. These are 100Mbs full
duplex channels. There are no internal connections between the outputs, to send the Ethernet
down all 8 zones, you will need some type of 8 port Ethernet switch.
RS-232, TCP/IP -- The switch's control ports.
