Full High-Resolution HDTV signals are supported up to a resolution of 1080p at a maximum distance of 1000 feet. The Gefen 4x4 Component/Audio CAT5 Matrix works with any Component video source including DVD players, cable boxes, and satellite set-top boxes that connect to a Component display.
• A single CAT cable is needed for each extension. Gefen recommends using solid core CAT-5e cabling. Termination should adhere to the TIA/EIA-568-B specifi cation. See page 19 for details.
Features • Switches easily between any four component/audio sources • Sends up to four video inputs to any four remote displays • Maintains 1920 x 1200, Full 1080p HD, and 2k resolution video • Extends video up to 1000 feet (300 meters) over CAT-5 cable •...
4X4 COMPONENT MATRIX OVER CAT-5 FRONT Power LED Indicator This LED will become active once the included 24V DC power adapter is properly connected. Output 1 Source LED Indicator The currently selected source being displayed on Monitor Output 1 will be visually acknowledged by an active LED.
CAT-5 output ports for extension. IR Blaster Outputs Connect IR emitters/blaster (sold separately, Gefen Part # EXT-2IREMIT) to these output ports. Each output is linked to one of the extension receivers. IR information is relayed from each remote location and is sent to these blasters for control of local equipment from the extended location.
4X4 COMPONENT AUDIO OVER CAT-5 RECEIVER IR Receiver This receiver will receive commands from both the included RMT-4IR remote control and from other commercial IR remote controls. IR commands from commercial IR remote controls are relayed from this unit back to the 4x4 Component Audio Over CAT-5 sending unit where they will be output by the attached IR Blasters.
CONNECTING AND OPERATING THE 4X4 COMPONENT MATRIX OVER CAT-5 How to Connect the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 Connect up to 4 component video/audio source devices to the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 sending unit using the included 5 RCA component video/audio cables.
OPERATING THE 4X4 COMPONENT MATRIX OVER CAT-5 RECEIVER The 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 Receiver can be placed at each remote location. Each receiver can switch between the four sources connected to the 4x4 Component Over CAT-5 Matrix sender. The unit has two methods of switching using either the direct selection buttons or the RMT-4IR remote control.
OPTIONAL RMT-16IR REMOTE DESCRIPTION The optional RMT-16IR remote control will allow the user to select which source each of the 4 connected displays will be viewing at the source location. Each of the 4 displays are assigned a group of 4 buttons that correspond to the 4 source inputs. Please use the information below when selecting the desired source for each display.
ADJUSTING THE 4X4 COMPONENT MATRIX OVER CAT-5 RECEIVER Each 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 Receiver has two trim pots used to adjust the brightness and focus of the video output. These adjustment trim pots are located on the front panel of each unit. Please use the guidelines below for adjusting both trim pots.
