3.2 System Diagram
Figure 3-1 System Diagram
3.3 Connection Procedure
Step1.Connect HDMI source (such as Blue-ray DVD) to HDMI IN port of the transmitter
with an HDMI cable.
Step2.Connect HDBT OUT/PoH port of the transmitter to HDBT IN/PoH port of the
receiver through a straight-thru CAT5e/CAT6a cable.
Step3.Connect a HDMI displayer (such as HDTV) to HDMI OUT and SPDIF IN port of
the receiver with HDMI cable and digital audio cable.
Step4.Connect an AV amplifier to AUDIO OUT or SPDIF OUT of Transmitter.

Step6.When using the bi-directional IR control, do the following:
a) Connect the IR emitter at either end to the IR OUT port on either the
transmitter or the receiver.
b) When using a powered IR receiver, connect via a 3.5 mm stereo plug to the
IR IN on either the receiver or the transmitter.
Step7.When using the bi-directional RS232 control, do the following:
a) Connect PC to the RS232 port at either the transmitter or the receiver.
b) Connect a third-party device (such as projector) need to be controlled to the
RS232 port at the other end.
c) Send RS232 commands to control the third-party device. For more details
about RS232 commands, please refer to the user manual for the third-party
device.
Step8.Connect an Ethernet Router to any one of the 4 Ethernet ports to access
Ethernet.
In this case, PCs connected to the other 3 Ethernet ports should set to static IP.
Step9.Connect with power adaptor to DC 12V port of either Transmitter or Receiver, the
other end will be energized synchronously with PoH solution.

1) System Diagram shown in this manual are for reference only, more specific
schemes depend on real devices.
2) Connect HDBT ports via straight-thru CAT5e/6 cable with TIA/EIAT568B standard
terminations at both ends.
3) RS232 communication protocol: Baud Rate: 9600; data bit: 8; stop bit: 1; parity:
none. This product receives RS232 control from devices with various baud rate
(2400, 4800, 9600, 19200, 38400, 57600, 115200).
4) HDBT ports can work with our company’s HDBT devices that has same power
supply solution.
5) Make sure the switchers on front panel are in the necessary status.
6) Reboot the device if the switcher status has changed.
3.4 PoH Solution
This product boasts HDBT port which support PoH. Besides carrying uncompressed
1080p or 4K video signals, high-resolution lossless audio, Ethernet, and two-way IR or
RS-232 control signals over a single Cat 5e/Cat 6 cable, it transfers DC power over a
single network cable to a distance up to 150 meters (m) bi-directionally.
Connect the DC adapter to either the transmitter or the receiver, the other end is able to
