ATTENTION:

•Always use a power supply provided by or specified by Extron. Use of an unauthorized power supply voids all regulatory compliance certification and may cause damage to the supply and the end product.

•Unless otherwise stated, the AC/DC adapters are not suitable for use in air handling spaces or in wall cavities. The power supply is to be located within the same vicinity as the Extron AV processing equipment in an ordinary location, Pollution Degree 2, secured to the equipment rack within the dedicated closet, podium, or desk.

•The installation must always be in accordance with the applicable provisions of National Electrical Code ANSI/NFPA 70, article 75 and the Canadian Electrical Code part 1, section 16. The power supply shall not be permanently fixed to building structure or similar structure.

NOTES:

•The length of the exposed wires in the stripping process is critical. The ideal length is 3/16 inch (5 mm). If it is any longer, the exposed wires may touch, causing a short circuit between them. If it is any shorter, the wires can be easily pulled out even if tightly fastened by the captive screws.

•Do not tin the wires. Tinned wire does not hold its shape and can become loose over time.

BHDMI input connector — Connect a HDMI input to this male connector.

NOTE: With appropriate DVI-D to HDMI cables or adapters, the unit will accept DVI-D input.

When the transmitter is receiving HDMI input signal, the front panel LED lights green.

The HFX 100 TX is a versatile transmitter that supports HDMI and HDCP 2.2. It ensures seamless transmission of high-definition video and audio over long distances, which is essential for installations where source devices may be located far from display equipment. With an impressive range of up to 100 meters (328 feet) over a single CATx cable, the HFX 100 TX provides operational flexibility and reliability.

Similarly, the HFX 100 RX functions as the corresponding receiver, designed to connect with displays or projectors. It utilizes advanced signal processing technologies to maintain optimal image quality, ensuring that content is delivered without degradation. Both the TX and RX units are compact and designed for easy integration into existing AV infrastructures.

One of the standout features of the HFX 100 series is its support for multicast capabilities. Users can transmit signals to multiple receivers simultaneously, making it an excellent choice for larger installations, such as lecture halls or conference centers. The devices also feature built-in EDID management, which simplifies compatibility between various AV components and allows for a smooth user experience.

Moreover, the HFX 100 TX and RX come with an integrated control system, which provides easy management of AV signals. This feature promotes interoperability with other Extron devices and various third-party systems, enhancing overall system performance.

Another notable characteristic is the power-over-Ethernet (PoE) capability. This eliminates the need for separate power supplies, streamlining installation and reducing clutter. The devices also have robust security features to ensure that AV content remains protected against unauthorized access.

With their combination of advanced technologies and user-friendly design, the Extron HFX 100 TX and HFX 100 RX are ideal solutions for anyone seeking quality, performance, and versatility in AV signal transmission.
