CONNECTING AND OPERATING THE 4X4 COMPONENT MATRIX OVER CAT-5

How to Connect the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5

1.Connect up to 4 component video/audio source devices to the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 sending unit using the included 5 RCA component video/audio cables.

2.Optionally, connect up to 4 digital coaxial audio source devices to the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 sending unit using one of the RCA cables from the supplied 5 RCA component/audio cable.

3.Using the included 5 RCA component video/audio jumper cables, connect the Component Video/Audio Output ports to the Component Video/Audio Extension Input ports. Please see the panel layout on page 6 for the locations of these ports.

4.If using digital coaxial audio, connect the digital coaxial outputs to the LEFT ANALOG connector of each of the Component Video/Audio Extension Input ports. This port will automatically detect the digital audio and send it to the appropriate digital output ports on the 4x4 Component Audio Over CAT-5 receiving units.

5.Connect the 4x4 Component Audio Over CAT-5 sending and receiving units together using user supplied CAT-5e cables.

NOTE: If field terminating CAT cabling please ensure that terminations adhere to the TIA/EIA-568-B specification. Please see page 15 more information.

6.Connect a component display to each of the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 receiving units using user supplied component cables.

7.Connect analog/digital audio to either the component display or a separate audio receiver.

NOTE: The 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 receiver units will cross-convert analog/digital stereo audio formats. If the source audio is 2 channel digital or analog, both analog and digital outputs will be active on the receiver units. If the source audio is digital multi-channel bit-stream, only audio from the digital outputs will be active on the receiver units.

8.Connect the included 24V DC power supply to the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 sending unit. Connect each of the included 5V DC power supplies to each of the 4x4 Component Matrix Over CAT-5 receiving units.

9.Power on the displays and source devices.
