Our Contractor CMX44CS 4K HDMI Matrix oers unprecedented performance and
value for the custom installation market. The CMX44CS supports HDMI2.0 with
HDCP2.2, allowing distribution of four HDMI sources to four displays. This enables
all sources to be viewed as required within a matrix configuration. The unit
transmits all HDMI resolutions up to and including 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 with automatic
video down conversion. The 4-way matrix also includes audio breakout and
advanced EDID management.

Web-GUI Control
The CMX44CS features an in-built web-GUI which can be used for control and configuration of the matrix. By default
the matrix is set to DHCP, however if a DHCP server (eg: network router) is not installed the matrix IP address will revert
to below details:
Default Username is: blustream Default Password is: 1234 Default IP Address is: 192.168.0.200

EDID Control
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data
is used by the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display. By pre-determining
the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time needed for EDID hand
shaking thus making switching quicker and more reliable.
Configuration of the EDID settings for each input can be achieved either via DIP switches on the rear of the matrix or by
using the following RS-232 or TCP/IP API commands to specify the required EDID:
EDIDxxDFzz
Where xx = Input: 00 refers to ALL inputs; 01-04 = specific input
zz = EDID as shown below
zz=00: HDMI 1080p@60Hz, Audio 2ch PCM
