2:4 HDMI 1.3 Splitter (Pre-Order)
Access up to Two Sources from up to Four Displays
2 Sources + 4 Displays = Greater Integration Options
Gefen's 2x4 HDMI™ Switcher is equipped with two HDMI™ inputs and four HDMI outputs. Two
inputs accommodate the simultaneous connection of up to two high definition video sources, such
as satellite systems and HD DVD players. four outputs send the high definition audio/video signals
to up to four high definition displays. Switching is done via the IR remote that is provided with the
unit.
Fully HDCP Compliant
HDCP (high bandwidth digital content protection) is a standard encoded into the video signal to
prevent it from being pirated. If a source device is HDCP coded and is connected to a display or
projector without the proper decoding mechanism, the picture is relegated to "snow" or in some
cases, very low (480P) resolutions of the images. In order to see high resolution digital video with
HDCP compliance, both the source, the display and anything in between must be equipped with
HDMI connections that can enable HDCP decoding, such as the 2x4 HDMI Switcher.
How It Works
You simply connect all your sources to the Switcher's inputs. Then connect up to four displays on
the output ports. Once the sources, the Switcher and the display(s) are powered and connected,
you simply select which source you want to view using the IR remote.
Note: This HDMI product supports BOTH Audio and Video signals.
All displays that cannot show the same video resolution(s) as the Primary Display connected to
Output #1 may fail to show a picture. Secondary displays follow the Primary by sharing the
resolution and capability information (EDID) obtained from the Primary Display.

RMT2-IR INSTALLATION
1. Remove battery cover from the back of the RMT2-IR remote.
2. Verify that dip switches 1 & 2 are in the down (OFF) position.
3. Insert the battery, hold the battery so that you can see the positive side facing up. The
side that is not marked must be facing down.
4. Test the RMT2-IR remote by pressing ONLY one button at a time. The indicator light
on the remote will flash once each time you press a button. WARNING: Do not press
multiple buttons simultaneously and do NOT press buttons rapidly. These actions will
cause the remote to reset and steps 1-4 will have to be repeated.
Note: The RMT2-IR ships with two batteries. One battery is required for operation, the
second battery is complimentary.
The optional IR extender allows you to
relocate your HDMI Switcher and still have
IR control of the HDMI Switcher

IR CODE CONFLICTS
How to Resolve IR Code Conflicts
There are matching pairs of dip switches underneath the Switcher unit and under the
remote battery cover. Switch 1 & 2 on the Remote and Switch 3 & 4 inside the unit are the
matching switches. These switches need to be matched for the remote to
communicate with the switcher. There are 4 possible sets of IR codes and at least one of
these sets should be able to resolve any IR conflicts with other home theater devices.
