IPEX6000TC-C Install Guide

The IPEX6000TC-C is an AVoIP PoE powered A/V transceiver integrated with both encoder and decoder conguraon
which can transmit and receive video signals simultaneously. The DigitalinxIP IPEX6000TC-C supports IP-based
switching and extension of true 4K/60Hz (4:4:4) video with zero frame latency up to 100 meters when using CAT6A
F/UTP cabling. The transceiver supports independent roung 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-C
is HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant and supports all video resoluons 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 acvated automacally when the raw data
rate exceeds the Ethernet bandwidth so that all supported ming formats can be delivered through a single 10G
Ethernet cable.
The IPEX6000TC-C can be used in a point to point installaon or in a matrix conguraon that supports roung of
one to one and one to many including mul-view for single display outputs and video wall conguraons up to
an 8x5 (Rows x Columns).
When mulple IPEX6000TC-C transceivers are deployed on an AV network, for basic system access and operaon,
a license code from Liberty’s Arranger oering is required.
Port speed requirements for each transceiver is ~6-8Gbps for 4K signals and 3.2Gbps for 1080P signals, therefore
the IPEX6000TC-C requires a 10GbE PoE managed network switch for opmal performance.
Note: 1GbE managed network switches are not supported.

System Installaon Instrucons
Connect Transceivers to Network Switch
Congure a 10GbE managed PoE network switch for mulcast video operaon.
Note: A 1G network switch cannot be used with the 6000 series due to the high port speed requirements of the
IPEX6000TC-C, a 10GbE managed network switch is required.
Liberty has documented several network switch sengs for many common switch manufacturers, see
documents related to this product on the product page of the Liberty AV website (www.libav.com).
Connect Category 6A from the network switch to the appropriate transceivers 10GbE LAN port.
Use TIA/EIA-568B crimp paern for Category cable terminaon.
If the managed PoE network switch cannot provide adequate power to the transceiver, connect the included power
supply to the DC power input of the device and connect to a local AC power source.
Best Pracce
When installing the AV endpoints, create a spreadsheet of all AVoIP transceivers notang the MAC address, the
aached source/sync and the desired transceiver funcon, 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 Documentaon for more informaon 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
automacally. 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 applicaon to nd and manage 6000 devices on a Network. See Device / System Control.

Connecng IR Components
The IR connecons on the transceivers provide a means to control remote IR equipment.
Note: Please ensure power is disconnected from the encoders and decoders before connecng the IR receiver to
the IR input ports on the devices.
Connecng Serial / RS232 Compable Devices
The RS232 connecons on the transceivers 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 illustraon below
Connecng HDMI Devices
Connecng 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 connecons to AV sources and displays.
The 3.5mm analog audio I/O connecon can be congured as an input or an output and is congured 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
Connecng USB Devices
A transceiver can be congured as either a USB host or client, this is congured 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

Arranger Server Login
Connect Arranger Controller
Once the hardware controller has been connected to the AV Network, the Arranger server applicaon 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 inial 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 credenals, by default the user name is admin and the password is
admin to login to the system inially.
Once logged in you will be asked to change the admin login password.
Best Pracce
Log the changed password that you created in your project documentaon spreadsheet.
Once logged in you can congure, manage and control all signal types for the DigitalinxIP 6000 series devices. A
complete operaon manual and API for the Arranger system is located in the Arranger server applicaon.
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 applicaon that will congure 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 [e-mail] and have serial number of the hardware
controller nearby to conrm system license
