1. INTRODUCTION
This 4×4 HDMI over HDBaseT Matrix with AVLC supports routing and
transmission of video (resolutions up to 4K@60Hz w/ HDMI 2.0 & HDCP
2.2) and audio while providing exible control via IR, RS-232, Telnet
or WebGUI. As many as four HD sources may be routed to any of
four destinations via single runs of cable up to a distance of 70m.
Despite HDBaseT’s 10.2Gbps bandwidth limitation, 4K UHD HDMI video
sources, up to and including 4K@60Hz (4:4:4, 8-bit) as well as 10/12 bit
sources with HDR, are able to be processed and extended by the use
of AVLC (Adaptive Visually Lossless Compression) when needed. 3D
video is also supported when compatible sources and displays are
connected.
This unit supports passing up to 8 channel LPCM digital audio as well
as Bitstream and HD Bitstream audio formats. Additionally, four analog
stereo audio outputs are available to provide breakout audio from
the associated HDBaseT output (LPCM 2.0 sources only).
The included PoH (Power over HDBaseT) functionality can supply
remote power to compatible HDBaseT Receivers, providing greater
exibility in your installations. Control is via front panel buttons with an
OLED menu, WebGUI, Telnet, RS-232 or IR remote.
2. APPLICATIONS
• Full audio/video matrix systems
• Residential AV matrix installations
• Commercial AV matrix installations

Range) color requires compatible AVLC receivers. If standard
HDBaseT receivers are detected the signal will be automatically
converted to 8-bit color. 4K sources routed to outputs A & C will
be automatically scaled to 1080p if the connected display can't
support 4K.
IR IN A~D Ports: Connect to IR Extenders to receive IR control
signals and extend them to devices connected to the other end of
the associated HDBaseT connection. Ensure that the remote being

6.7 WebGUI Control
• Device Discovery
Please obtain the “Device Discovery” software from your authorized
dealer and save it in a directory where you can easily nd it.
Connect the unit and your PC/Laptop to the same active network
and execute the “Device Discovery” software. Click on “Find Devices
on Network” and a list of devices connected to the local network will
show up indicating their current IP address.
Note: The unit’s default IP address is 192.168.1.50.
By clicking on one of the listed devices you will be presented with the
network details of that particular device.
1) IP Mode: If you choose, you can alter the static IP network settings
for the device, or switch the unit into DHCP mode to automatically
obtain proper network settings from a local DHCP server. To switch
to DHCP mode, please select DHCP from the IP mode drop-down,
then click “Save” followed by “Reboot”.
