A
HDBT OUTPUTS—Connect an HDBaseT Receiver (C4-HDBTEB-B)
to these ports. Carries video, audio, Ethernet, and commands over
CAT5e/6 cable.
IMPORTANT! Cable length cannot exceed 328 feet (100
meters) from switch to receiver.
B
HDMI OUTS—Connect HDMI-compatible playback devices to these
ports. These are shared outputs for zones 7 and 8 (using HDMI OUT
7 and 8, respectively). Zones 7 and 8 can either be HDBT or HDMI out
(not both at the same time).
C
HDMI INPUTS—Connect HDMI sources (audio, video, or both) to these
ports.
D
LAN PORTS (pass-through)—Connect Ethernet-compatible network
devices to these ports. These port numbers correspond to the HDBT
OUTPUTS. Any of these ports in use needs to be connected to a
network switch. On the HDBaseT Receiver side, connect the LAN PORT
to the Ethernet device or network switch.
E
IP control port—Connect the home network (via a router or Ethernet
switch) to this port.
F
AUDIO OUTS—Connect to audio switches or amplifiers with stereo
3.5 mm audio cables. These audio outs are an audio pass-through
(audio break-out) of the stereo audio for the respective source. (AUDIO
OUT 1 will play stereo audio from HDMI INPUT 1.)
NOTE: These are stereo only. Multi-channel audio will not play
out of these ports.
IMPORTANT! Audio cable length should not exceed 10 feet
(about 3 meters).
G
IR PORTS (pass-through)—Allow 38 kHz IR data to be passed from a
controller to an HDBaseT Receiver, or from an HDBaseT Receiver to the
HDMI switch. Uses standard 3.5 mm cable and emitters.
•
When a controller is connected to the HDMI switch's IR port, a stereo
3.5 mm-to-3.5 mm cable must be used.
•
When an IR emitter is connected to the HDMI switch or the HDBaseT
Receiver, it must be the mono 3.5 mm IR emitter (C4-CBLIRF-BULK).
•
If the IR is going from the receiver to the HDMI switch, then the
capture device connected to the receiver must be an IR receiver and
cannot be a Control4 controller.
H
RS-232 PORTS—Allow control to be sent from a controller to the output
of an HDBaseT Receiver. They can be used with a 3.5 mm to DB9 Serial
Cable (C4-CBL3.5-DB9B). If connecting to the serial ports on an HC-
250, you can use a stereo 3.5 mm-to-3.5 mm cable. These port numbers
correspond to their respective zone output.
IMPORTANT! Serial cable length should not exceed 10 feet
(3 meters).
I
ID button—Press to identify the device for Composer Pro system setup.
J
Power port—Connect the included power adapter here. Use only the
included power adapter. (DIN, 12VDC) When connecting, slide back the
locking connector and orient the plug flat side down.

Installation
Essential setup tasks include:
1 Disconnecting power to the HDMI switch
2 Installing the rack-mount bracket
3 Connecting the input and output devices
4 Connecting the device to the network and power
5 Setting up the connections in Composer Pro
WARNING!

connected devices while making connections.
Reconnect power only when the connections are
complete.
ATTENTION !

Rebranchez uniquement lorsque les connexions sont
terminées.
CAUTION!
with or in close parallel proximity to mains power cables,
or severe signal interference may result.
ATTENTION !
CAT5e / 6 avec ou à proximité immédiate parallèle à
un câbles d'électricité, ou des interférences de signaux
graves peuvent en résulter.
Installing a rack-mount bracket
Align the holes on each bracket with the holes on the HDMI
switch, then mount the brackets using four 8-32 x 3/8" flat-head
screws (included).
Connect input and output devices
Refer to any device-specific documentation for additional
installation instructions. To connect:
1 Connect the source devices to the HDMI INPUTS and other
inputs. Each numbered input (except for HDMI INPUTS)
connection associates to the same HDBT port. Example: The
IR PORT 1, LAN PORT 1, and RS232 PORT 1 ports all associate
with the HDBT OUTPUT 1 port.
2 When connecting a controller to the HDMI switch via RS-232:
a If connecting an HC800, use a 3.5 mm to DB9 Serial Cable
(C4-CBL3.5-DB9B).
b If connecting an HC250, use a stereo 3.5 mm-to-3.5 mm
cable.
3 Connect the HDBT OUTPUT port to the HDBASET INPUT
port on the HDBaseT Receiver (C4-HDBTEB-B).
4 Connect the appropriate LAN, IR, and RS-232 serial
connections from the HDBaseT Receiver to the display
device (such as a TV, AV receiver, or projector).
For RS-232, the switch/receiver combination is configured
as a null modem. Consequently, you may not need a null
modem cable or adapter if the display device usually
requires one.
Disconnect power to the switch and
