1. Introduction
The CMLUX-4H4CAT is a 4 x 4 HDMI over CAT6 Matrix that is a high
performance device, boasting features such as a remote control, IR blaster
and IR receiver. Compatible with Deep Color Video and high denition
digital audio, this device has the ability to direct any of its four HDMI sources
to any of the four HDMI displays, with each display showing a different
source. Furthermore, since the signal is sent over CAT6 cables, you gain a
long operating distance (50m at 1080p 8 bits) and if connected to a CAT 6
receiver or splitter you can extend your operating range over even longer
distances. Lastly, with four individual output IR blasters, users are able to
control the input sources with their existing remote controls. Are you in need
of a device that offers you complete control over HDMI devices and displays,
then look no further the CMLUX-4H4CAT 4 x 4 HDMI over CAT6 Matrix is the

①. EDID Control Switcher: The default factory setting is TV, leave as is when
content is displayed properly. Switch to STD to use built-in EDID.
Note:
1. When EDID is switched to TV, the unit will detect the rst HDMI output
source’s EDID and record it in the unit. If the rst detected output
source is DVI, it will skip onto the next source until the rst HDMI source is
detected. The detection priority is HDMI v1.3 > HDMI v1.2 > DVI.
2. When EDID is switched to STD, the unit will use its built-in EDID that
supports:
Video →1080p 12-bit (max) supports xvYCC
Audio →PCM 2CH
3. The EDID selection will only be activated after the unit is re-plugged
and powered on.
