Frequently Asked Questions - HEX70ED-RX Blustream

What is the maximum supported resolution of the HEX70ED-RX?
The HEX70ED-RX supports video resolutions up to 4K@60Hz with 4:4:4 chroma subsampling, as well as 1080p and lower resolutions.
What type of cable is required for extending video?
The unit uses HDBaseT technology and requires a minimum of Cat6 or Cat7 cable for distances up to 70 meters. Do not use Cat5e for full performance.
Can the HEX70ED-RX be used with a PoE switch to power the transmitter?
No, the HEX70ED-RX does not support PoE (Power over Ethernet). Both the transmitter (TX) and receiver (RX) require their own local power supplies.
Does this receiver support HDR (High Dynamic Range)?
Yes, the HEX70ED-RX supports HDR10 and Dolby Vision when the source and display are compatible, as part of the HDMI 2.0b specification.
How do I connect IR control signals?
The receiver has IR pass-through ports. Connect an IR receiver to the RX unit to receive commands from a remote control; these are sent back to the TX unit to control the source device. Similarly, IR blasters can be connected to the TX to control the display.
Is the RS-232 pass-through bidirectional?
Yes, the RS-232 interface supports bidirectional communication at baud rates up to 115200, allowing control of either the source or display device from either end.
Can I use the HEX70ED-RX with a transmitter from another brand?
The HEX70ED-RX is designed to work with the Blustream HEX70ED-TX transmitter. Using third-party HDBaseT transmitters may not guarantee full compatibility or performance.
What should I do if there is no video output?
First, ensure both units are powered. Check the HDMI cables and try a different source. Verify the Cat6/7 cable termination (use T568B standard). Try a shorter cable or reset the units by unplugging power for 30 seconds.
Does the unit support audio return channel (ARC)?
No, the HEX70ED-RX does not support ARC or eARC. Audio is transmitted from the source to the display only. To send audio back, use a separate audio system or an optical cable.
What is the warranty period for the HEX70ED-RX?
Blustream offers a standard 3-year warranty for this product. Register the purchase on the Blustream website to activate the warranty.

This product contains sensitive electrical components that may be damaged by electrical spikes, surges, electric shock, lightning strikes, etc. Use of surge protection systems is highly recommended in order to protect and extend the life of your equipment.

Safety And Performance Notice

The transmission distances of HDMI over UTP cables are measured using TE CONNECTIVITY 1427071-6

EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) of cables is recommended for optimal performance.

To minimize interference of the un-shielded twisted pairs in the CAT5e/6 cable do not run the HDBaseT / Cat5e/6/6a cabling with or in close parallel proximity to mains power cables.

Do not substitute or use any other power supply other than the enclosed unit, or a Blustream approved replacement.

Do not disassemble either the Transmitter or Receiver units for any reason. Doing so will void the manufacturer's warranty.

EDID Control

EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and source. This data is used by the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display then from this information the source will determine what the best audio and video resolutions are to be outputted.

While the objective of EDID is to make connecting a digital display to a source a simple plug and play procedure issues do arise when multiple displays or video matrix switching is introduced because of the increased number of variables.

By pre-determining the video resolution and audio format of the source and display device we can remove some of the EDID hand shaking process thus making switching quicker and more reliable. Instructions on these setting can be found on the right
