Av Output Cabling - Extron electronics HC 404 User Manual

• Use shielded RJ-45 plugs to terminate the cable.
• Extron XTP DTP 24 Series cable is recommended for best results
• Overall transmission distance capabilities vary depending on the number of patches
used. Use no more than two pass-through points, which may include patch points,
punch down connectors, couplers, and power injectors. If these pass-through points
are required, use shielded couplers and punch down connectors.
• If patches must be used in the system, Extron recommends shielded CAT 6 (or better)
patch cables.
NOTE: When using shielded twisted pair cable in bundles or conduits, consider the
following:
• Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.
• Do not comb the cable for the first 20 meters, where cables are straightened,
aligned, and secured in tight bundles.
• Loosely place cables and limit the use of tie wraps or hook-and-loop fasteners.
• Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.
Once the transmitter and receiver are connected and powered on,
the LEDs on these connectors light as follows:
• Signal LED (green) — Indicates the unit is receiving a signal on
the selected input (2, 3, or 4) on the transmitter.
NOTE: The Signal LEDs do not light while input 1 on the
receiver is selected or if there is no active signal when a
transmitter input (2, 3, or 4) is selected.
• Link LED (amber) — Indicates a valid link is established
between the units on the interconnection cable.

AV Output Cabling

1. Connect a display, projector, or other AV device to the Outputs HDMI/CEC connector
figure
(see
more about the Consumer Electronics Control (CEC) connection and function, see
HDMI/CEC
2. Connect the cable and install the LockIt bracket
(see figure 4
as for the HDMI inputs.
3. For analog audio output, connect an amplifier,
powered speaker, mixer, or other audio device to
the 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connector. See
the diagrams at right for the appropriate wiring for
your application.
For unbalanced audio, connect the sleeve(s) to
the ground contact. Do not connect the sleeve(s)
to the negative (-) contacts.

The output volume control in the PCS software and in the OSD menu applies
to the analog audio output only. The output level for the HDMI embedded
audio is fixed and cannot be adjusted.
HC 404 can only de-embed digital 2Ch PCM audio to the analog audio
output. It cannot de-embed multi-channel audio.
