Appendix D – Cable Details and Pinout Info

Overview

The DXLink Fiber Transmitters and Receivers each have an HDMI connector. The Transmitters also have an HDMI
output connector on the front for sending the video signal directly from the source to a local destination device. This
connection supports the same input resolutions contained in the first table in "Appendix E - Supported Input
Resolutions" (see page 130).
Important: System configurations will vary, necessitating different cable requirements for each system.
Cables not available through AMX should come from a trusted cable supplier.
Note: When cabling video through either the HDMI port or HD-15 port, installers should be aware of how
cabling will affect audio signals. For information on audio precedence, see "Audio Type Precedence" on
page 51.

HDMI Connector Cable Pinout

HDMI connectors are found on all DXLink Fiber units. These connectors are used to pass HDMI or DVI-D signals
(using a DVI-to-HDMI cable) from a source device to a DXLink Fiber Transmitter or from a DXLink Fiber Receiver to
a destination device. They are also used to provide an HDMI signal out from the Transmitters to a local destination
device. The following table provides cable pinout details for HDMI connections.
