Description
The AC-EXO-X-KIT is a pair of 40Gbps transmitter and
receiver modules that extend HDMI 2.1 video and audio
signals from a local source to a remote sink device over
simplex multimode fiber optic cabling. The maximum
supported video resolutions are up to 8K 60Hz 4:2:0 or 4K
120Hz 4:4:4 with 7.1 audio. Supported HDMI 2.1 features
include Auto Low Latency and Variable Refresh Rate,
along with 16 EDID presets, auto-sense scaling on both
secondary HDMI outputs, and a built-in test pattern that
can be set using the dipswitches on the back of the
transmitter.
Power Connections
Fiber optic cables do not carry an electrical charge and
cannot supply power from one unit to another. Here are
the recommended solutions to power both units.
First, power either the transmitter or receiver with the
provided 48V power supply. Next, power the other unit
using one of the following options listed below:
1 USB charger brick to USB-C input
2Power output to power input with 18-2 cable*
3Sink (TV or AVR) USB-A port to USB-C input
Quick Install
Fiber Optic Cables
For maximum performance, OM3 Cleerline SFF™ fiber
optic cabling is recommended. LC (Lucent) connectors
must be used.
EDID Settings
EDID management can be done using dipswitches
1, 2, 3,
and 4 located on the transmitter (AC-EXO-X-T). Flip the
dipswitches up (“on” or “1”) or down (“off” or “0) to select
the corresponding EDID setting.

Troubleshooting
•Verify Power – Check the POWER light is solid blue on the front panel of both the transmitter and receiver.
This indicates there is power connected and present on the devices.
Note: The AC-EXO-X-KIT must be powered from both units for complete operation. See Power Connections.
•Verify Connections – Check that all cables are properly connected and can support 48Gbps. Check the LINK
light is solid blue on the front panel of both the transmitter and receiver.
•Issues with One Output – Swap HDMI outputs to see if issue follows. Try copying EDID from the display. See
EDID Settings.
•Issues with Legacy HDMI Device when Scaling – Ensure the legacy device supports the input source’s frame
rate. Ensure Variable Refresh Rate is disabled and supports meta-data.
•Not Passing Video – Use the built-in test pattern on the transmitter.
•IR Issues – Verify correct connections and settings.
Note:
Use the provided IR cables included with the device. Visible flashing IR emitters or other third-party IR
cable functionality is not guaranteed.
