HPX-C5400-CN+A Hydraport Component Video + Stereo UPX Module
Overview
The HPX-C5400-CN+A Component Video + Stereo UPX Module (FG552-52-BL-K) is
designed to be used in conjunction with the HPX-1600 Hydraport Base Assembly. See
specifications for module requirements. For more information on the HPX-1600, refer
to www.amx.com.
The HPX-C5400-CN+A Component Video + Stereo UPX Module provides user-
accessible RGBHV (VGA) Video and Stereo connections on the face of the Hydraport
system. The HPX-C5400-CN+A Component Video + Stereo UPX Module provides
connection from the user's source equipment to a remote client such as projector,
monitor, display or stereo sound system over CAT 5 cable using AMX's proprietary
UPX system.

Installation
Attention! Only a professional, AMX-qualified installer should
perform this installation. Installation must conform to all local codes.
This product may not be installed by the end-user.
Tools Required
• Wire cutting pliers
• Phillips Screw Driver (to access Hydraport Base Assembly)
CAUTION! Ensure that the AC Power cord is disconnected from IEC
C-14 power inlet connector on the Hydraport Base Assembly prior to
disassembly of the Hydraport Base assembly or installation of the
HPX-C5400-CN+A Module (see FIG. 2).
Step 1 - Backside Termination
Before installing the module into the Hydraport Base Assembly, the backside
terminations of the module must be completed.
This backside termination involves simply plugging in the CAT 5 cable into the RJ45
receptacle on the back of the HPX-C5400-CN+A Module (FIG. 3).
Note that for terminations for which the far end of the cable is not accessible either
because the cable has been run under carpet, in a conduit or structure, or is otherwise
fixed, the cable must be placed through the retaining ring (note the orientation of the
retaining ring) then through the mounting surface from bottom to top, then to the
module - before the module is placed into the base assembly (FIG. 4).
Step 2 - Provide a Service Loop
Ensure there is sufficient cable length to provide a service loop for the cable after the
module is installed into the Hydraport Base Assembly (FIG. 5).

Note that the Hydraport Base Assembly travels up and down approximately 228.6 mm
(9”) during operation.
The service loop must accommodate this motion and provide for securing the cable to
the Hydraport Base Assembly for strain relief.
For more detailed information, please refer to the HPX-1600-XX Hydraport Base
Assembly Instruction Manual.
Step 3 - Insert the Module Into the HPX-1600 Chassis
Insert the module into the main chassis of the HPX-1600 Base Assembly.
Note the position of module interlock tab: this tab should face towards the bottom of
the HPX-1600 Base assembly when installed in its mounted position (FIG. 6).
Step 4 - Install the Bottom Cover On the HPX-1600
Note: Install any remaining modules into the Hydraport Base Assembly before
installing the Bottom Cover on the HPX-1600.
1. Install the bottom cover (including the Power Inlet Assembly) onto the bottom of
the main frame of the Hydraport Base Assembly.
The cables from the HPX-C5400-CN+A Module as well as all other modules
(except AC Power Outlets) will exit the bottom of the Hydraport Base Assembly
through one of four square passages on either side of the bottom cover.
2. After the bottom cover is secured using four screws, secure the cables to the
corresponding tab near each opening using a small cable tie (FIG. 7).
