08 Connecting the HDBase-T

HDBase-T connection of The Terrace is built-in for transmission of audio and video data. It does
not support transmission of power, Ethernet and control signals including IR and RS232.

General

• The appearance may differ depending on the product.
• Connecting parts may differ in different products.
• Data transmission is not available if HDBase-T (Rx) is connected to HDBase-T (Tx) through a
hub.
• While installing the product, be sure to use the cables and TX devices certified by the
HDBase-T Alliance.
• When connecting an external device via HDBase-T, for the maximum resolution, use a
certified TX device that supports 4K 30 Hz.
• This port (HDBT port on the TV) does not support ARC (eARC).

Guidelines for connection

• HDBase-T (Tx) transmits data from an external device to HDBase-T (Rx). Only 1:1 connection
is available between devices. Make sure to connect them via a LAN (CAT6 or higher quality)
cable.
• HDBase-T works with unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or shielded twisted pair (STP) cables;
but, to ensure CE compliance, STP cables and STP Connectors are required. STP cable and
connectors are recommended to safeguard against unpredictable environmental electrical
noise which may impact performance. It is recommended to use an STP cable to maximise
performance. Using a UTP cable or patch may decrease performance.
• Before replacing the external device, first remove the HDBT LAN (CAT6 or higher quality)
cable.
