Quickstart Guide
WyreStorm Express™ HDBaseT Extender with IR (50m/164ft)
EXP-EX-HDBT-50

Before Installation

The maximum transmission distance for this model is 4K:
25m/82ft or 1080p: 50m/164ft and denotes recommended
transmission conditions - straight cable runs with no electrical
interference, bends, kinks, patch panels or wall outlets. If any of
the above is a factor in your installation, transmission range may
be affected – take care to avoid where possible.
We strongly recommend using supplied mounting brackets to
secure the receiver to a flat surface behind/near the display
device. Sudden movement of these devices could lead to loss of
picture/sound if connections become loose or strained, resulting
in unnecessary service call-backs.
If unsure of positioning, IR sensors can be located on devices by
shining a flashlight onto the fascia of the device - the IR sensor
should be identifiable as a small round sensor behind the panel.
Consult your device manufacturer handbook if difficulties are
experienced.
Setup and Operation
1
Using quality HDMI cables, connect an HDMI source (such as
Blu-ray, games console, satellite/cable TV, media server etc.) to the
HDMI IN of the transmitter.
2
Connect a good quality, well-terminated Cat5e/6 cable of no more
than 50m/164ft in length between the HDBT OUT of the transmitter
to the HDBT IN input of the receiver.
3
Connect the HDMI display device (LED/LCD display or projector) to
the HDMI OUT of the receiver.
4
Connect the included 5v power supply to the EXP-EX-HDBT-50
transmitter and receiver and power on.
5
Check POWER & STATUS lights are illuminated and static on both
units to indicate successful connection.
NOTE: If daisy-chaining extenders, repeat process for all
transmitters and receivers used.
IR Control Connection
6
For two-way IR control of connected sources and displays from
either location, first connect IR emitters to the IR TX ports of the
transmitter and receiver.
7
Firmly attach the IR emitter eye directly over the infrared receiving
sensors of the devices to be controlled (source at transmitter
location, and display device at receiver location). Location of the
emitter eye on the device may need to be adjusted later to achieve
best IR performance.
8
Insert IR receivers into IR RX ports of the EXP-EX-HDBT-50
transmitter and receiver.
9
At both display and source locations, position the IR receiver on or
near the device to be controlled, ensuring a clear line of sight to the
remote handset used to control it.
Optional: For control system integration a WyreStorm IR
Integration Cable (CAB-IR-LINK) should be used to connect
the IR RX port of the transmitter and the control system.

NOTE: Although WyreStorm
products are tested with Cat5e,
we recommend Cat6 due
to increased bandwidth and
improved capacity for handling
large transmissions and power
along a single cable.
