Quickstart Guide
WyreStorm recommends reading through this document in its entirety to become familiar with the product’s features prior to starting the
installation process.
IMPORTANT! Installation Requirements
• Visit the product page to download the latest rmware, document version,
additional documentation, and conguration tools.
• Read through the Wiring and Connections section for important wiring
guidelines before creating or choosing premade cables.
• While this product supports CEC for the HDMI outputs, WyreStorm cannot
guarantee compatibility with all forms of CEC communication.
IMPORTANT! Installation Requirements
• The use of patch panels, wall plates, cable extenders, kinks in cables, and
electrical or environmental interference will have an adverse effect on
signal transmission which may limit performance. Steps should be taken
to minimize or remove these factors completely during installation for
best results.
• It is suggested to use shielded Cat6a cabling or higher for all HDBaseT
connections to achieve the maximum signal transmission distance and
reliability. Category cables should be tested to 500Mhz across the entire
link. Using Category cables that do not pass a 500Mhz frequency may
result in shorter distance and signal loss.
• WyreStorm recommends using pre-terminated HDMI cables due to the
complexity of these connector types. Using pre-terminated cables will
ensure that these connections are accurate and will not interfere with the
performance of the product.

Identifying Product Versions
These products have been released under multiple versions which contain
either different chassis designs and/or feature sets. Content within this QSG
is for the version 2 or newer of these products. Information on other
versions can be found within the matching QSG. Each product version is
identied by a v# after the product number on the product and outer
packaging. Note that a version of these products may not contain this
identier while all versions above v1 will have the version indicated.
Wiring and Connections
WyreStorm recommends that all wiring for the installation is run and terminated prior to making connections to the switcher. Read through this section in it’s
entirety before running or terminating the wires to ensure proper operation and to avoid damaging equipment.
IR TX/RX Guidelines
• Using WyreStorm infrared emitters and receivers is the best way to
ensure that most IR coding formats are transmitted and received by the
NetworkHD system. Other 3rd party emitters and receivers can be used;
however, these devices must operate in the same manner as the
WyreStorm devices.
• Due to differences in IR across 3rd party control systems their IR ports
should never be connected directly to a NetworkHD system as an
incompatibility may exist. WyreStorm offers a cable that compensates for
voltage differences as well adjusts for differences in the pins used within
the port. Refer to the CAB-IR-LINK product page for more information.
IR TX Port Pinout
Connection for IR TX (transmit) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) mono plug.
Tip: Anode

IR RX Port Pinout
Connection for IR RX (receive) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) stereo jack that outputs
+5V DC to power the included IR receiver.
Tip:
Ring: IR Signal
+5V DC
Sleeve: Ground (GND)
