USER MANUAL AT-HD14SS Atlona

Atlona Technologies' AT-HD14SS 1x4 HDMI 1.3 over Single CAT5/6 Distribution Amplifier provides the most flexible solution in the Audio Video industry at which high definition video and high quality audio can be transmitted to different locations over a long distance. The splitter is cascadable, allowing you to daisy chain multiple units for extending HDMI displays almost anywhere at almost any distance. The input HDMI source can be duplicated and distributed to up to 4 HDMI enabled displays through cost effective Cat-5/6 cables and RJ-45 to HDMI mini-extenders (AT-HD15SRS) or long range receivers (AT-HDRS). The built-in re-clocking technology allows users to connect long distance cables up to 66ft to the input of the Atlona 1x4 splitter.

PANEL DESCRIPTION

ATLONA T33 HDMI V1.2 AMPUER OVER SINGLE GATS WITH 7.15N AUDIO HDMI INPUT 1 2 3 4 HDMI Signal OUTPUT USB +5V DC Power

1. DIP Switch: see more detail in the next section (p.5)
2. HDMI INPUT: Connect to one HDMI source here
3. HDMI Signal OUTPUT 1 – 4: Link to each HDMI display via a Cat-5/5e/6 cable with a HDMI over CAT5 receiver AT-HDRS or AT-HD15SRS
4. USB: For firmware update use (for technical support only)

HARDWARE INSTALLATION

Broadcast HDMI signal to 4 remote HD displays from one video source

1. Switch off each device, including displays devices.
2. Connect the HDMI source (such as a PS3, HDMI Compliant Set-top Box, Blu-ray player) to the HDMI INPUT.
3. Connect to each receiver (AT-HDRS or AT-HD15SRS) via RJ-45 connector by CAT5e cable.
4. Plug in 5V 4A DC power supply unit.
5. Power on the HDMI displays.
6. Power on the HDMI source.

Mode for EDID/Audio setting

DIP Switch Position		Video Audio Description
Pin-1 Pin-2
OFF [↑]	OFF [↑]	Up to 1080p	Stereo ^2	Default Mode ^3 – Up to 1080p & stereo audio output for most HDTVs
OFF [↑]	ON [↓]	Up to 720p/1080i	Stereo	Safe Mode ^4 – Enforce the system output at 720p/1080i video and stereo audio for basic compatibility among HDTV
ON [↓]	OFF [↑]	Bypass ^5	Bypass ^5	EDID Learning ^6 Mode – for learning EDID from the display while playing any received HDMI audio format
ON [↓]	ON [↓]	Bypass Stereo		EDID Learning ^6 & Stereo Mode – for learning EDID from the display while enforcing stereo output if any HDTV cannot play surround sound normally

Note:
^1 If the HDTV shows video but without audio, please try to set audio mode to stereo.
^2 Factory default setting of Mode is pin-1 [OFF↑] & pin-2 [OFF↑] for 1080p with stereo.
^3 If you encounter any unsolved audio/video output problem during system installation, please turn any Mode to pin-1 [OFF↑] & pin-2 [ON↓] for safe mode to enforce the most compatible 720p stereo output for system check. However, the safe mode cannot be initiated if your HDMI source is set to enforce 1080p output. In this case, please reconfigure your HDMI source to all resolution output for troubleshooting.
^4 Bypass means the distribution amplifier will maintain playing the original format of HDMI signals in video and perhaps audio. By setting at this mode, the users may encounter compatibility issue among different kindsof HDMI sources and displays. If you cannot get the audio and/or video output normally at the system installation, please change the DIP switch setting to default mode or even safe mode to verify the functionality of the device.
^5 To learn the EDID of HDMI display for respective HDMI source devices, set pin-1 at [ON↓] first then connect the HDTV sets to the HDMI INPUT via HDMI cable. Then please wait for 20 seconds for completing the EDID learning procedure. If you want to learn the EDID from another HDTV, you must set pin#1 at [OFF↑] first and repeat this procedure all over again.

NOTICE

1. If the DVI or HDMI device requires the EDID information, please use EDID Reader/Writer to retrieve and provide EDID information of the DVI or HDMI display or AV receiver.
2. All HDMI over CAT5 transmission distances are measured using Belden CAT5e 125MHz UTP cable and ASTRODESIGN Video Signal Generator VG-859C.
3. The transmission length is largely affected by the type of Cat-5/5e/6 cables, the type of HDMI sources, and the type of HDMI display. The testing result shows solid UTP cables (usually in the form of 300m or 1,000ft bulk cables) can transmit a lot longer signals than stranded UTP cables (usually in the form of fixed length patch cords). A solid UTP Cat-5e cable shows longer transmission range than a stranded STP Cat-6 cable. For long extension applications, solid UTP/STP cables are the only viable choice.
4. EIA/TIA-568-B termination (T568B) for Cat-5/5e/6 cables is recommended for better performance.
5. To reduce the interference among the unshielded twisted pairs of wires in Cat-5/5e/6 cable, shielded STP cables are better suited than unshielded UTP cables to improve EMI problems, which is worsen in long transmission.
6. Because the quality of the CAT-5/6 cables has the major effect on how long the transmission limit can achieve and how good is the received picture quality, the actual transmission range is subject to one's choice of Cat-5/5e/6 cables. For desired resolutions greater than 1080i or 1280x1024, a Cat-6 cable is recommended.
7. If your HDMI display has multiple HDMI inputs, it is found that the first HDMI input [HDMI input #1] generally can produce better transmission performance among all HDMI inputs.
