over 70m of cat6 Cable
HDBaseT HDMI+ARC Extenders

sy.uk 2 V1.0
The SY-HDBT-SLIM-ARC70-T and SY-HDBT-ARC70-R HDBaseT transmitter & Receiver pair
can broadcast 1080p HDMI with two-way IR control, bi-directional RS232 data, audio and
power over 70m of cat6 cable with perfect quality. The maximum distance reduces to 40m
when using 4k HDMI signals. These extenders are suited to a wide range of applications in
the AV industry, digital signage and at home.
Features
Extends 1080p HDMI and data up to 70m with HDCP support and HDMI 2.0
compatibility
Extends 4k HDMI and data up to 40m with HDCP support and HDMI 2.0
compatibility
ARC is supported from the receiver HDMI port to the transmitter HDMI port
Supports both analogue L/R or digital S/PDIF audio from the receiver to the
transmitter only
Only one 48V DC power supply required (at the Transmitter or Receiver)
Provides transmission of IR and RS232 control signals over the same cable in
both directions
Status indicators for Link, HDMI and HDCP
Supports all HDMI resolutions up to 4K x 2K (including: 1080p, 1080i, ......, 480p

Using the HDBT HDMI Extenders
HDMI Extender
Connect a HDMI source to the HDMI IN socket on the HDBT-ARC70-T and connect a HDMI
display to the HDMI OUT socket on the HDBT-ARC70-R. Connect a Cat6 UTP cable to the
HDBT sockets of both the transmitter and receiver units. Connect the 48V power supply to
either the Transmitter or the Receiver unit.
Status LEDs
The LINK LED indicates the link status of the transmitter and receiver units, solid ON for a
successful link and off when a link cannot be established. The LINK LED is green on the RJ45
connector and blue on the front of the HDBT-ARC70 unit.
The amber STATUS LED on the RJ45 connector indicates that the HDBaseT signal is being
transferred between the transmitter and the receiver.
The blue SIGNAL LED on the front of the HDBT-ARC70 indicates the following:
For the transmitter –HDMI data is being received from the HDMI source.
For the Receiver –HDMI data is being sent to the display device.
The SIGNAL LED also indicates the HDCP status of the HDMI signal, it will flash on both units
whenever HDCP is not present and will remain ON whenever HDCP is present.

sy.uk 4 V1.0
The SIGNAL LED will remain OFF for any of the following conditions:
1. The HDMI source is not outputting data, the HDMI cable is either not connected or
it is faulty.
2. The HDMI display is not connected or powered up, or the HDMI cable is faulty.
3. The HDMI display is not set to use its HDMI input.
IR –Dual Bidirectional
To use the IR Extender option, point your IR remote control device at the IR detector
connected to the IR IN socket of either the SY-HDBT-70R or the SY-HDBT-70T as required. An
IR emitter must also be connected to the corresponding transmitter or receiver IR OUT
socket. Locate the IR emitter close to the device you wish to control. All IR control functions
are now possible from the remote location.
RS232 –Bidirectional
To use the RS232 extender option, connect the RS232 equipment to the RS232 terminal
blocks with the cables provided and ensure that any RS232 handshake modes are set to
none or RTS/CTS as required. The MODE switch on both the extender units must the set to
Norm to allow RS232 control signals to pass between them. All standard RS232 baud rates
up to 115.2 K baud are supported without needing to set any switches or special
configuration options.
The RS232 port also supports RTS/CTS flow control using the RT/CT connections. If RTS/CTS
flow control is not required, then the RT/CT connections could be used as a second RS232
port.
ARC, S/PDIF and Stereo Audio (L/R)
These extenders also support ARC from the receiver to the transmitter for sending the off-
air broadcast audio signal down to an ARC sound receiver. The ARC70 set will automatically
select one of the following three audio modes:
1. HDMI ARC –ARC mode is selected when the 3.5mm jack sockets are left unused.
2. S/PDIF –Optical audio mode is selected when the 3.5mm jack socket detects
that an optical fibre is connected.
3. Stereo Analogue Audio –Analogue audio is selected when the 3.5mm jack
socket detects that a jack plug is connected.
PoC
The SY-HDBT-70 Extender set have a Power over Cable (PoC) capability, allowing both the
Transmitter and Receiver units to be powered using only one power supply. The set can be
powered from either the Transmitter side or the Receiver side.
For best results, use only solid copper cat6 cables.

V1.0 5 sy.uk
Mode Switch
The MODE switch should be set to Norm to permit transmission of RS232 signals between
the two extenders. The Prog setting is only used when either the SY-HDBT-ARC70-T or the
SY-HDBT-ARC70-R require a field upgrade.

RJ-45 Wiring
Both connectors must be wired identically.
HDBaseT signals will not pass through any Ethernet device, the HDBaseT port on the SY-
HDBT-70T must be connected directly to the HDBaseT port on the SY-HDBT-70R.
Please do make sure that the Cat6 cable uses 4 pairs of 23AWG solid copper wires. Do not
use inferior copper clad cables as these exhibit higher resistances.
