Wyrestorm EX-70-4K Quick Start Manual

Quickstart Guide
WyreStorm 4K HDBaseT 5-Play Extender Set
with 2-Way IR, RS232, Ethernet and PoH
(4K: 70m/230ft - 1080p: 100m/328ft)
EX-70-4K

Before Installation

70m/230ft @ 4K and 100m/328ft @1080p video are maximum
recommended transmission distances for this model and
denotes recommended transmission conditions - including
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.
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 EX-70-4K Transmitter. NOTE: Ensure source
and display are 4K compatible if attempting to transmit an
UltraHD signal.
2
Connect a good quality, well-terminated Cat5e/6 cable of no more
than 70m/230ft for 4K or 100m/328ft for 1080p between the
HDBT OUT of the EX-70-4K Transmitter to the HDBT IN Input of
the EX-70-4K Receiver.
3
Connect the HDMI display device (LED/LCD display or projector) to
the HDMI OUT of the EX-70-4K Receiver.
4
Connect the included 12v power supply to either the EX-70-4K
Transmitter or Receiver and power on. The two-way PoH function
carries power along the length of the cable in both directions to
power either the Receiver or Transmitter depending on power
availability. Local power supply is required at one end of the cable
run only, with no additional power required at the other end.
NOTE: Optional 12v power connectivity is available if
required - for example, if the cable is too weak to carry the
power.
5
Check POWER, STATUS & LINK lights are illuminated on both units
to indicate successful connection, with a lit HDCP light illustrating
the presence of encryption within the signal.
STATUS should be flashing slowly for correct operation. HDCP
should be static to signify HDCP within the transmission but will
flash quickly if non-HDCP is being transmitted. POWER and LINK
are both static LED, with strength of transmission illustrated by the
5-level LINK LED - the stronger the signal the more lights will be lit.
Similarly, no or one light indicates a transmission issue that should
be investigated.
NOTE: If daisy-chaining extenders, repeat process for all
EX-70-4K Transmitters and Receivers used.
Signal IR/RS232 Control Connection
6
For two-way IR control of connected sources and displays,
connect IR transmitters to the IR TX ports of the EX-70-4K
Transmitter and EX-70-4K 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 EX-70-4K Receiver and
EX-70-4K Transmitter.
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.
For linking with a control system, a WyreStorm IR Integration Cable
(CAB-IR-LINK) should be used to connect the IR RX port of the EX-
70-4K Transmitter to the control system.
For an RS232-based control system, RS232 cables should be
connected between RS232 ports of the EX-70-4K Transmitter and
control system, and RS232 ports of the EX-70-4K Receiver and the
display device to enable serial control between devices.

NOTE: Although WyreStorm products
are tested with Cat5e, we recommend
Cat6 due to increased bandwidth and
improved capacity for handling large
