HDMI LockIt Cable Lacing Brackets

Four Extron LockIt cable lacing brackets are provided with each
HDMI card for the Quantum Ultra (additional ones can be
ordered). These brackets enable you to secure HDMI input and
output device cables to the HDMI connectors on the cards to
prevent intermittent or complete signal loss due to a loose cable
connection.
Above each connector is a mounting screw, which you can use
to attach the lacing bracket to the Quantum Ultra input and
output cards (see the provided LockIt HDMI Lacing Bracket Installation Guide card for
information on attaching the bracket).

Input and Output Cards

The Quantum Ultra 610 chassis contains 10 slots for input and output cards, while the
Quantum Ultra 305 has five. Each card contains either four HDMI input connectors, two
RJ-45 input connectors on the IN SMD 100 card, four HDMI output connectors, or four
DTP RJ-45 output connectors. Up to four HDMI sources, HDMI displays, or DTP receivers
can be connected to a card, up to the maximum capacity of 40 devices. The number of
input and output cards installed determines how many video inputs and display outputs
are available on your system. Multiple Quantum Ultra chassis can be added to the same
project to create very large display arrays.
NOTES:
You can remove, replace, and rearrange the cards in the chassis if desired (see
Replacing Input and Output Cards
cards, contact your Extron representative.

Card Locations

When the Quantum Ultra is assembled at the factory, all the input cards are installed in
slots above the output cards in the chassis. If installing cards yourself, do not intersperse
input cards with output cards.
Each card slot can contain either an input or an output card, depending on the
configuration that was ordered (at least one input and one output card must be installed).
However, because all the input cards must be installed together above the output cards
in the chassis, slot 1 cannot contain an output card and slot 10 (615 model) or slot 5 (305
model) cannot contain an input card.
All input cards of the same type (HDMI or IN SMD 100 [IP]) must be installed together,
as must all output cards of the same type (HDMI or DTP). Do not intersperse HDMI input
cards with IN SMD 100 cards, or HDMI output cards with DTP cards. In addition:
•
•
NOTE: Do not leave empty slots between cards (input or output) in the chassis. This
• Maximum input capacity is based on an input-output card configuration with one
slot occupied by an output card.
• Maximum output capacity is based on an input-output card configuration with
one slot occupied by an input card.
Install the IN SMD 100 input cards in slots above those containing HDMI input cards.
Install the HDMI output cards in slots above those containing DTP output cards.

bottom of the card slots section.
