NetworkHD Full Product Range Quickstart Guide
WyreStorm recommends reading through this document in its entirety to become familiar with the product’s features prior to starting the
installation process.
IMPORTANT! Installation Requirements
WyreStorm Documentation and Firmware
Download the following items from the product page on wyrestorm.com. They are essential for accurate conguration and use of the NetworkHD system.
• Latest NetworkHD Firmware
• Management Suite v1.3 or Higher
• NetworkHD Installation Guide
• NetworkHD Technical Reference Guide
• NetworkHD Certied Switches
• NetworkHD Switch Conguration Guides
• NetworkHD Switch Mapping Worksheet
• 3rd Party Control System Drivers
Network Switch Requirements
• WyreStorm highly recommends the use of switches listed in the NetworkHD Certied Switches. These switches have been veried by WyreStorm to meet the
requirements of a NetworkHD system.
• NetworkHD requires a Layer 2+ / Layer 3 managed switch network with support for Multicast & IGMP Snooping. Ensure that the switch being used supports
these features and that they are congured prior to connecting the NetworkHD system.
• Congure all network switches to the exact specications contained in the WyreStorm Switch Congurations Guides prior to connecting the NetworkHD
system. This will ensure proper operation from startup.
Wiring and Connections
WyreStorm recommends that all wiring for the installation is run and terminated prior to making connections to the switcher. Read through this section in this
entirety before running or terminating the wires to ensure proper operation and to avoid damaging equipment.
IMPORTANT! Wiring Guidelines
• The use of patch panels, wall plates, cable extenders, kinks in cables, and
electrical or environmental interference will have an adverse effect on
signal transmission which may limit performance. Steps should be taken
to minimize or remove these factors completely during installation for best
results.
• WyreStorm recommends using pre-terminated HDMI and DP cables due to
the complexity of these connector types. Using pre-terminated cables will
ensure that these connections are accurate and will not interfere with the
performance of the product.
LAN Port Wiring
The NetworkHD Series LAN port is a 1GbE link for connection to a
1000BASE-T Ethernet device port. Refer to IEEE 802.3ab for ofcial guidance
on the Ethernet link. Cables must be tested to 100MHz across the entire link.
1000BASE-T uses the IEC 60603-7 8P8C modular connector.
HDMI/DVI Wiring
WyreStorm recommends using pre-terminated HDMI and DVI cables due to
the complexity of these connector types. Using pre-terminated cables will
ensure that these connections are accurate and will not interfere with the
performance of the product.

IR TX/RX Guidelines
• Using WyreStorm infrared emitters and receivers is the best way to ensure that most IR coding formats are transmitted and received by the NetworkHD
system. Other 3rd party emitters and receivers can be used; however, these devices must operate in the same manner as the WyreStorm devices.
• Due to differences in IR across 3rd party control systems their IR ports should never be connected directly to a NetworkHD system as an incompatibility may
exist. WyreStorm offers a cable that compensates for voltage differences as well adjusts for differences in the pins used within the port. Refer to the CAB-IR-
LINK product page for more information.
IR TX Port Pinout
Connection for IR TX (transmit) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) mono plug.
Tip: Anode
Sleeve: Cathode (IR Signal)
IR RX Port Pinout
Connection for IR RX (receive) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) stereo jack that outputs
+5V DC to power the included IR receiver.
Tip:
Ring: IR Signal
+5V DC
Sleeve: Ground (GND)
RS-232 Wiring
The NetworkHD devices use a 3-pin or a 4-pin phoenix with no hardware flow control. 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.
Devices that use a 3-pin connection include:
NHD-110-TX
NHD-110-RX
NHD-250-RX
NHD-400-DNT-TX
Devices that use a 3.5mm connection include:
NHD-400-TX
NHD-400-RX v2
NHD-400-DNT-TX
NHD-600-TX
NHD-600-RX
Devices that use a 3-pin connection include:
NHD-110-TX
NHD-110-RX
NHD-250-RX
Devices that use a 5-pin connection include:
NHD-400-RX v3
Devices that use a 4-pin connection include:
NHD-400-E-RX
NHD-400-RX
NHD-600-TX
NHD-600-RX
Audio Wiring
NetworkHD uses three different audio outputs. A 3.5mm (1/8in) TRS Stereo Jack audio connection, a 3-pin phoenix unbalanced audio connection and a 5-pin
phoenix balanced audio connection.

Setup and Conguration
IMPORTANT! Installation Guidelines
• Do not connect the power supply until all NetworkHD devices are connected to the network switch.
• NetworkHD Series uses DHCP to assign IP addresses by default. In the absence of a DHCP server an AutoIP address will be assigned in the subnet
169.254.0.0/16. Ensure the PC being used for conguration obtains an IP via DHCP or is set to an address in the AutoIP range prior to starting the
conguration process.
• In order to congure the NetworkHD encoders and decoders, the AV port on the NHD-000-CTL MUST be connected to the same LAN/VLAN and Subnet as the
NetworkHD encoders and decoders.
• In order for the devices in the system to be controlled via a 3rd party controller on a different VLAN, the CONTROL port MUST be connected to the same LAN/
VLAN and Subnet as the control system.
• The NHD-000-CTL’s two Ethernet ports are designed to be used in different Networks or VLANs. When using a single Network or VLAN for example when
using NetworkHD Touch – do not connect both ports – only use the AV port of the CTL.

NetworkHD Console Conguration
In addition to the steps below more information on conguration can be found in the NetworkHD Installation Guide.
1. Connect a computer running Windows™ to the same LAN/VLAN as the NetworkHD components and ensure its IP is within the same subnet as the
NetworkHD default 169.254.x.x IP addresses. The NHD-000-CTL is set to a static address of 169.254.1.1 by default – do not choose this address for your PC.
2. Power On the NetworkHD devices by connecting the included power supplies to the Power Input or by powering On the PoE switch.
3. Open the WyreStorm Management Suite (Available from the WyreStorm website) and launch the NetworkHD 000 Series Console and press Search.
Note: If a no devices are discovered, verify that encoders/decoders, CTL and PC are within the same subnet scope and within the same range of the CTLs AV
Port and disable or create an exception for the NetworkHD Console in the Windows Firewall.
4. Congure the system as per the instructions in the NetworkHD Installation Guide. Right Click on the NHD-x00-TX/RX to see its available options, including
setting the devices IP address and setting an Alias name. You will also nd other conguration options under the Batch Settings window.
Note: If a 3rd Party control system with a WyreStorm driver for NetworkHD is going to be used, the encoders must use the names IN1, IN2, etc. This also
applies to decoders, OUT1, OUT2, etc. For example, IN1-Satellite Receiver 1.
5. Upload to the conguration to the NHD-000-CTL by right clicking the CTL in the Other Devices section and selecting Upload.
6. Congure the scaling, HDCP values of each decoder based on the requirements of the content and display using the settings found in the Video tab in the
Batch Settings screen.
Installation and Connections
1. Install NetworkHD devices to allow airflow through the product - WyreStorm recommends using the NetworkHD rack mounts. The install location should be
dry, well ventilated and guaranteed to maintain the mandatory operating temperature range of the product.
2. Connect sources to the NetworkHD encoders using a DisplayPort or HDMI cable from a quality brand such as WyreStorm Essentials ensuring a rm port
connection.
3. Connect the HDMI display to the NetworkHD decoders using an HDMI cable from a quality brand such as WyreStorm Essentials ensuring a rm port
connection.
4. Connect NetworkHD encoders, decoders, and CTL to the network switch using well terminated and tested category cable, whilst ensuring compliance with
IEEE 802.3an (10GbE encoder/decoder port) or IEEE 802.3ab (for CTL, encoder, and decoder 1GbE ports).
5. Optionally connect the LAN port to equipment following the guidance in the LAN Port Wiring section.
6. Optionally connect the encoder/decoder RS-232 port to equipment following the pinout in the RS-232 Wiring section.
7. Optionally connect the Audio In or Out to an audio device following the pinout in the Audio Wiring section.
Download the NetworkHD Switch Mapping Worksheet from any NetworkHD product page to keep track of Mac addresses, device and alias names for
later reference. This will aid in any reconguration or troubleshooting.
