Introduction
OVERVIEW
The ULTRA-4K is comprised of the ULTRA-4K-S Sender and the ULTRA- 4K-R Receiver. The system is
used to extend USB 2.0 and dual display HDMI video supporting various resolutions including 1080p @
60 Hz and 4K UHD @ 30 Hz. Dual video and USB can be extended to one or more Receivers up to a
distance of 100 m (328 ft.) over a single CAT6 cable.
The Sender features two HDMI inputs and one USB input for connection to a dual-head PC. It provides
two local HDMI outputs (corresponding to the two HDMI inputs) and features an internal USB hub with
two local USB outputs. Additionally, there are three separate RJ45 output ports to extend video and
USB to multiple remote locations.
The Receiver provides two HDMI outputs and 6 USB ports. Two of the USB ports are labeled for use
with keyboard and mouse; however, they can also be connected to other USB devices such as KVM
switches or touchscreen displays if desired.
For connection of other USB devices such as printers or scanners, four additional general-purpose USB
2.0 ports are available. For security purposes, USB memory devices are not supported by default. If you
want to enable USB memory support, please contact Hall Technologies.
In a setup with one sender going to only one Receiver, the USB ports automatically pair with the
Sender. However, when there are more than one ULTRA-4K Receiver connected to the same sender,
only one Receiver can be paired at a given time. Pairing is accomplished using a push button on the
front panel of the Receiver. A corresponding LED next to the button indicates USB pairing status with
the Sender.
Each Receiver features an RJ45 “LINK OUT” port that can be daisy- chained to down-stream Receivers.
All signals are re-buffered, so the LINK OUT port can drive cables to 100 meters long.
It is important to note that the RJ45 output ports (on the Sender or the Receiver), can also be
connected to ULTRA-V Receivers. ULTRA-V Receivers provide only one video output and no USB. The
ULTRA-V Receivers show Video A by default; however, they can be configured to display Video B if
desired. Please refer to the ULTRA-V User’s Manual for further details.

Setup
INSTALLATION
• Connect the PC HDMI outputs to the ULTRA-4K-S ports marked “HDMI A IN” and “HDMI B IN”
using quality HDMI cables.
• Connect the PC USB to the ULTRA-4K-S port marked “USB IN” using a USB cable.
• Optionally, connect HDMI displays to HDMI A/B OUT ports, and USB peripherals to the USB
LOCAL ports.
• Using a CAT6 able, connect the ULTRA-4K-S “link out” port to the ULTRA-4K-R “link in” port.
• Connect remote HDMI displays to the ULTRA-4K-R HDMI A and HDMI B output ports.
• Connect keyboard, mouse, KVM Switch, or touchscreens to the ULTRA-4K-R ports marked as
KBRD/MOUSE
• Optionally, connect other USB devices to any of the USB 2.0 ports.
• Optionally, connect external speakers to “audio out” to use audio from “HDMI A” or “AUDIO
INPUT” of ULTRA-4K-R.

INSTALLATION
While HDMI is the most widely adopted video standard, there are a number of computer and display
manufacturers that rely on DisplayPort for higher resolutions such as 2560 or 4K. Hall Technologies
offers 4K compatible adapters to convert between these two video standards.
*Note: These adapters are unidirectional. For example, the DisplayPort to HDMI adapter cannot
convert a HDMI signal to DisplayPort.
To connect to a source (PC) with DisplayPort output, use GC-DP-HD.
Model GC-DP-HD: DisplayPort source to HDMI output
Virtually all monitor and TV’s have HDMI (or DVI) inputs. But if your display only has a display port
input, the following adapter convers HDMI to DP.

devices are connected to the hub. The Port 1 and 2 LEDs correspond to the two USB
(type A) ports available on the rear panel. They should be on if there is a USB device
connected to them.
