INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS

HD44CC5
High Definition Video Matrix Switcher,
Coaxial and CAT5
DESCRIPTION
The HD44CC5 four-source, four-zone high-definition matrix switcher has component video and
S/PDIF digital audio inputs for each source. All four zone outputs have component video output and
S/PDIF audio output for economical local distribution up to 250', as well as a RJ45 output for
transmission of the video and digital audio signal up to 1000' to the HDRXSG01 receiver located in
the zone. Both coaxial component video output and CAT5 output are active simultaneously, making it
possible to distribute four sources to eight outputs at the same time.
The HD44C has the same great features as the HD44CC5 without the CAT5 output. The HD44C is
ideal for installations requiring local switching and distribution up to 250'.
The HD44CC5 and HD44C unit is expandable up to 16 zones.

    The HD44C has the same great features as the HD44CC5 without the CAT5 output. The HD44C is ideal for installations requiring local switching and distribution up to 250’.

  • Page 2: Source Inputs

    DETAIL OVERVIEW [1] SOURCE LOOP-THROUGH CONNECTION The source inputs are buffered to provide an output at the same levels, assuming a 75-ohm termination is on the output. Use these connections for HD44 expansion systems. The buffers are an active circuit. The HD44 must be powered on for an active connection. [2] SOURCE INPUTS Gold-plated RCA jacks for connection from the output of the source.
  • Page 3 RING GROUND SLEEVE +12VDC, 25mA [4] IR BUS, EMITTER PORT The 3.5mm Mono jack is an emitter port. The IR signal is connected to the IR Receiver. A Xantech 283M emitter can be connected to this port. PLUG 2-Pin WECO SLEEVE The 2-Pin WECO screw terminal is an IR port.

    HD44C and HD44CC5 (up to 4 units), a larger High-Definition distribution system can be created. For instance, two HD44C units can be combined to create a much larger 4 source input to 8 zone output. The two HD44C units must have their own unique address (see ADDRESS (DIP SWITCH) section).
  • Page 7 [9] CAT5 ZONE OUTPUT Output connection to the HDRXSG01 receiver module. Uses standard CAT5 cable. Be sure to verify CAT5 wiring connection is correct before installation. [10] COAXIAL ZONE OUTPUT Gold-plated RCA jacks for connection to an HD monitor. Color coordinated to match all HD type products.
  • Page 8 QUICK INSTALLATION: HD44CC5 and HDRXSG01 [1] Connect the High-Definition Source to the HD44CC5 or HDTXSG01. Figure 1 below shows a HD44CC5 (video matrix transmitter) connected to the HDRXSG01 (receiver). [2] Using CAT5 cable, connect the HD44CC5 zone output or the output from the HDTXSG01 to the HDRXSG01.

  • Page 12: Common Problems And Troubleshooting

    Poor video quality (picture is washed out): Several manufacturers of cable and satellite box may have higher than normal DC offset on the video signals. When connected to an HD44C, HD44CC5, and HDTXSG01, this may result in a washed out picture. To remedy this problem, a DC blocker should be used between the source component and the HD44C, HD44CC5, and HDTXSG01.
