HDMI Wiring
IMPORTANT! Wiring Guidelines
• The use of patch panels, wall plates, cable extenders, kinks in cables,
and electrical or environmental interference can have an adverse effect
on HDMI transmission limiting performance. Steps should be taken to
minimize these factors (or remove completely) during installation for best
results.
IR Ext (Receiver) Wiring
Connection for IR Ext (receive) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) stereo jack that outputs
+5V DC to power the included IR receiver.
IMPORTANT! IR TX Connection Guidelines
• 3rd party IR receivers may require a different voltage, refer to the
documentation provided with the IR receiver before making any
connections to avoid damaging the device.
• When connecting to an IR control system use the
WyreStorm CAB-IR-LINK stereo to mono cable to remove the sleeve +5V
DC.
Tip:
Ring: IR Signal
+5V DC
Sleeve: Ground (GND)
RS-232 Wiring
RS-232 Connection Guidelines
The following wiring diagram shows the pinouts for the extender set. While
not shown, connect the TX (transmit) to RX (receive) pins at the control
system or PC side of the cable.
Most control systems and computers are DTE where pin 2 is RX, this can vary
from device to device. Refer to the documentation for the connected device
for pin functionally to ensure that the correct connections can be made.

Troubleshooting
No or Poor Quality Picture (snow or noisy image)
• Verify that power is being supplied to the splitter, sources, and display
devices.
• Verify that the splitter supports the output resolution of the source.
• Verify that the splitter and display devices support the output resolution of
the source.
• Congure EDID Settings to a lower resolution.
• If transmitting 3D or 4K, verify that the HDMI cables used are 3D or 4K rated.
• Verify that all source and HDBaseT connections are not loose and are
functioning properly.
Troubleshooting Tips:
• WyreStorm recommends using a cable tester or connecting the cable to
other devices to verify functionality.
