HDBaseT™ Distance / Connection Guide
The SW41HDBT has been designed to be used in projects where source devices are not all centrally located, allowing
for these remote signals to be brought to a central location, and further distributed out to either a local display (via
HDMI), or to a remote location e.g. a projector (via HDBaseT™)
• The HDBaseT™ inputs support up to a maximum distance of 70m at 1080p (40m at 4K 60Hz 4:2:0 8-bit) between a
Blustream transmitter (connected to the source) and the SW41HDBT.
• The HDBaseT™output supports up to a distance of 70m at 1080p (40m at 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 8-bit) between the
SW41HDBT and a Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver (connected to the display).
Due care and attention must be taken to the quality of CAT cabling used when pushing both input and output HDBaseT™
distances with this product to ensure a stable signal path from source to sink where multiple HDBaseT™ runs are used
inline.
EDID Control
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source to negotiate
the best audio and video resolutions that are supported within the system. The default EDID setting for the SW41HDBT
is 1080p with 2 channel audio. EDID selection for the SW41HDBT can be configured either via the Web GUI or using IP /
RS-232 API commands.
Please refer to the SW41HDBT User Manual - available to download from the Blustream website.
RS-232 Configuration & Control
The RS-232 port is used for configuration / control of the product, as well as pass through of RS-232 commands
between the serial ports of the Blustream HDBaseT™ transmitters or receiver. The default RS-232 communication
settings are:
Baud Rate: 57600
Data Bit: 8
Stop Bit: 1
Parity Bit: none
For the complete RS-232 and TCP/IP command list please see the SW41HDBT User Manual - available to download
from the Blustream website.
Auto Switching / Signal Sensing
The SW41HDBT can automatically switch input sources when a signal is connected or disconnected either via TMDS or
5V from the source device. It is designed to work with all Blustream HDBaseT™ transmitters however when using the
HEX31WP-TX wall plate, special consideration must be taken.
As both the SW41HDBT and HEX31WP-TX have the ability to automatically switch sources connected to them, if
both units are set to auto-switch mode, the HEX31WP-TX auto-switch mode will have priority and in turn will trigger
the SW41HDBT when a source is connected or active source is disconnected from it (if the source is inactive on the
HEX31WP-TX, disconnecting it will not aect auto switching).
The HEX31WP-TX must also have the following command sent to it via RS-232 or Telnet to support auto-switching to
the SW41HDBT: TRGPOCPWR
Please refer to the Blustream manual of the SW41HDBT or HEX31WP-TX for further information, available on the
Blustream website.
