J-Tech Digital JTDHDEX1x4 HDMI Extender Splitter User Manual

Introduction

The J-Tech Digital JTDHDEX1x4 is an HDMI extender and splitter unit designed to transmit a 1080P 60Hz HDMI audio/video signal over long distances using a single Cat5e/6 Ethernet cable. This system features one HDMI input and four HDMI outputs, allowing a single source to be displayed on up to four separate screens. Additionally, a local HDMI loop-out port on the transmitter enables connection of a fifth display for convenient source monitoring. The unit incorporates Power over Cable (PoC) functionality, meaning only the transmitter requires a power adapter, simplifying installation by powering the receivers via the connected Ethernet cable. It also supports IR control for remote management of the source device and includes an EDID toggle switch for optimal audio format compatibility. This plug-and-play device is suitable for various commercial and residential environments.

Иштөө нускамалары

EDID которгуч

The transmitter unit features an EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) toggle switch. This switch allows you to select the preferred audio format to ensure compatibility with your connected displays and audio systems. The available settings are typically 2.0 (for stereo audio) and 5.1 (for surround sound audio). Adjust this switch if you experience audio issues or require a specific audio format.

IR башкаруу

The IR control feature allows you to control your HDMI source device (e.g., cable box, DVD player) from the location of any of your remote displays. Ensure the IR TX cable is correctly positioned near the source's IR sensor and the IR RX cables are positioned on the receivers to pick up signals from your remote control. The IR control is one-way, transmitting commands from the display location back to the source.
