IPEX6000TC-F Install Guide

The IPEX6000TC-F is an AVoIP powered A/V transceiver integrated with both encoder and decoder conguraon
which can transmit and receive video signals simultaneously. The DigitalinxIP IPEX6000TC-F supports IP-based
switching and extension of true 4K/60Hz (4:4:4) video with zero frame latency up to 300 meters / 984’ when using
mulmode ber opc cabling. The transceiver supports independent roung of all AV, USB HID, IR, Ethernet and
RS232 signals. All transceivers on an AV network can simultaneously transmit and receive full 4K 60 4:4:4 signals.
The IPEX6000TC-F is HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant and supports all video resoluons that t into the HDMI 2.0
ming envelope of 594 MHz, such as 4K@60Hz 4:4:4 24bpp and 4K@60Hz 4:2:0 30bpp HDR, including DolbyVision,
HDR10 and HLG. The transceiver features lite compression technology which is acvated automacally when the
raw data rate exceeds the Ethernet bandwidth so that all supported ming formats can be delivered through a
duplex mulmode OM3 LC-LC ber opc cable.
The IPEX6000TC-F can be used in a point to point installaon or in a matrix conguraon that supports roung of
one to one and one to many including mul-view for single display outputs and video wall conguraons up to
an 8x5 (Rows x Columns).
When mulple IPEX6000TC-F transceivers are deployed on an AV network, for basic system access and operaon,
a license code from Liberty’s Arranger oering is required.
Port speed requirements for each transceiver is 6-8Gbps for 4K signals and 3.2Gbps for 1080P signals, therefore
the IPEX6000TC-F requires a 10GbE managed network switch for opmal performance
Note: 1GbE managed network switches are not supported.

System Installaon Instrucons
Connecng Transceivers to Network Switch
The 10GbE PoE managed network switch must be congured for mulcast video operaon.
Note: A 1G network switch cannot be used with the 6000 series due to the high port speed requirements of the
IPEX6000TC-F, a 10GbE managed network switch is required.
Liberty has documented several network switch sengs for many common switch manufacturers, see
documents related to this product on the product page of the Liberty AV website (www.libav.com).
Connect a duplex mulmode LC-LC ber cable from the network switch to the appropriate transceivers 10GbE SFP+
port. An SFP+ 10G LC-LC ber transceiver is included in the package contents.
Note: Be sure to connect the DC power supplies to the transceivers as ber opc cabling does not support power.
Best Pracce
When installing the AV endpoints, create a spreadsheet of all AVoIP transceivers notang the MAC address, the
aached source/sync and the desired transceiver funcon, i.e. encoder, decoder or both. This will aid in fast
nal system commissioning that could be done remotely by accessing the AV system server via VPN or via port
forwarding. See Arranger Documentaon for more informaon on how to access the server and set up port
forwarding.
The 6000 series devices default to DHCP so a router or DHCP server can assign an IP address to the device
automacally. If there is no router or DHCP server present it will default to APIPA i.e. 169.254/16 Network ID. You
will use the Arranger applicaon to nd and manage 6000 devices on a Network. See Device / System Control.

Arranger Server Login
Connect Arranger Controller
Once the hardware controller has been connected to the AV Network, the Arranger server applicaon can be
accessed via web browser on any PC that is connected to the same AV Network switch. By default the IP address
for the Arranger server is 169.254.1.1. For inial system setup your PC will need to be in the same Network ID, i.e.
169.254/16.
Upon rst login of the Arranger server you will be asked for an unlock code for your license, once the license has
been entered you will be prompted for login credenals, by default the user name is admin and the password is
admin to login to the system inially.
Once logged in you will be asked to change the admin login password.
Best Pracce
Log the changed password that you created in your project documentaon spreadsheet.
Once logged in you can congure, manage and control all signal types for the DigitalinxIP 6000 series devices. A
complete operaon manual and API for the Arranger system is located in the Arranger server applicaon.
The provided Arranger hardware controller with the DigitalinxIP system should be hardwired via Ethernet to the
AV network switch.
Device / System Control
Arranger is an AVoIP server applicaon that will congure and manage the 6000 series on an AV IP Network.
Arranger is licensed per endpoint for one AV Network and a license unlock code should have been provided upon
purchase of the Arranger DigiIP 6000 series license.
If you are missing the license unlock code contact supportlibav@libav.com and have serial number of the hardware
controller nearby to conrm system license

Connecng IR Components
The IR connecons on the transceivers provide a means to control remote IR equipment.
Note: Please ensure power is disconnected from the encoders and decoders before connecng the IR receiver to
the IR input ports on the devices.
Connecng Serial / RS232 Compable Devices
The RS232 connecons on the transceiver provide a means to control 3rd party devices using serial commands.
Connect the TX, RX, and ground control signal wires to the removable 3-pole terminal block, be sure the wiring
from transceiver to the device is TX - RX, RX - TX, G - G. See illustraon below
Connecng HDMI Devices
Connecng Audio Devices
Use only high quality High Speed HDMI cables rated for 18Gbps, do not exceed HDMI cable lengths over 5m/15’ for
transceiver HDMI connecons to AV sources and displays.
The 3.5mm analog audio I/O connecon can be congured as an input or an output and is congured in the
Arranger server. Connect a 3.5mm stereo audio cable to the transceivers audio I/O port
Note: Audio output is 2 channel stereo audio only and is not capable of downmixing mul channel audio
Connecng USB Devices
A transceiver can be congured as either a USB host or client, this is congured in the Arranger server. Connect
USB components to transceivers with USB 2.0 rated cables, do not exceed cable lengths over 5m/15’
Note: 6000 Series supports USB HID, which is ideal for simple KVM or touch control. Do not use high quality USB
microphones or webcams on this transceiver
