Introduction
The AC-CXWP-KVM-KIT is a 4K60 4:4:4 18Gbps supported HDBaseT wall plate extender kit over single CAT UTP/STP.
This device can take in any HDMI signal and transfer it long distances; simultaneously, it’s able to send a USB 2.0 sig-
nal (bi-directionally) through the same cable. This makes for the ideal solution for classrooms and conference rooms
to work with modern laptops and desktop computers.

Specications

Key Benets
·Invisible Compression Technology: ICT is a revolution in HDMI extension technology, it allows AVPro Edge
Products to deliver high bandwidth 4K signals over category cable. Normally when this is done, the video is
left with compression artifacts and banding. Using AVPro Edge’s proprietary ICT solution allows us to deliver a
stable picture without any degradation.
·USB 2.0 and KVM Integration: The AC-CXWP-KVM-KIT supports the extension of USB signals, which may be
switched and routed over the HDBaseT link along with the other AV signals and can be managed separately
via a control system. USB 2.0 host and device ports are provided on both the TX and RX units, allowing you to
connect a USB mouse, keyboard, USB microphone, or any other USB device to be connected at one unit and
routed to a computer or other host at another unit.
·Down Scaling: The AC-CXWP-KVM-KIT has a scaling circuit built into the transmitter. The scaler can scale 4K
to 1080P. Essential when working with projectors or displays that are only 1080p.
·Total EDID Management: The AC-CXWP-KVM-KIT has robust EDID control. EDID management allows you
to manage the input device and request specic video resolutions and/or audio codecs. The following EDID
options are available:
·EDID Bypass
·1080P 2CH Audio
·1080P 8CH Audio
·4K60 4:2:0 2CH Audio
·4K60 4:2:0 8CH Audio
·4K60 4:4:4 HDR 2CH Audio
·4K60 4:4:4 HDR 8CH Audio
·USER EDID – EDID Copy
·The EDID Copy Function allows you to copy and save from any display or projector you want to.
·Audio Return Channel (ARC): The Audio Return Channel in HDMI 1.4 and 2.0 enables a TV, via a single HDMI
cable or Toslink, to send audio data “upstream” to an A/V receiver or surround audio controller, our extender
will continue the upstream audio all the way to the Transmitter. There it can be connected via HDMI ARC.
·On Board Troubleshooting: This unit allows you to generate a 1080P test pattern to identify external problems
(source, repeater, displays, etc.). You can now be sure that your wiring is correct and get to the bottom of
problems quickly should they arise, without having to worrying if the source or sink is working properly. You
can generate a test pattern from the Transmitter so you can verify total system infrastructure integrity
·Both the Transmitter and Receiver are compatible with the AC-CX42-AUHD, AC-CX62-AUHD, and AC-CX100-
RAMP.

Verify Power - Page 9 “Device Overview - Receiver Front”
• If you having issues with power, verify the POWER FROM switch on the receiver is correct.
Verify Connections - Check that all cables are properly connected.
• Refer to “Device Overview - Transmitter Front”, Activity Lights Page 6
• Refer to “Device Overview - Receiver Front”, System Status LED Indicator Lights Page 9
Not passing video,intermittent video, color-space issues? This may be an EDID issue. Out of the box the
Transmitter dial is set to “0 - Bypass”, this will pass the EDID from the Display through the chain back to
the sync device. See “Device Overview - Transmitter Top” on page 7 for list of available EDIDs.
You can also use the “USER EDID” slots (9, and E) to copy the Displays EDID. Simply move the dial to
either 9 or E while the connected HDMI Display is powered on, this will copy and store that EDID on the
Transmitter. To re-copy move the dial away from position 9 or E, and them back with the connected HDMI
Display powered on.
You can also select position F to enable the built in 1080p test pattern that originates at the Transmitter,
this can help verify a solid connection from the Transmitter down the line to the display.
USB Connection issues, default out of the box the HDBaseT Receiver’s USB SELECT switch is set to AUTO.
Try setting to HOST or DEVICE, see “Device Overview - Receiver Back” on page 10 for more information.
Extracted Audio Issues using the 3 pin terminal connector on the front of the Transmitter will only extract
2Ch PCM audio this unit does not down-mix. Verify connected source is set to 2Ch PCM audio.
*NOTE: ARC must be enabled on the display/sync, and the output should be set to PCM.
