AVB-RX-DXLINK-HDMI (FG1010-500)

HDMI Receiver Module

Overview
The DXLink HDMI Receiver features built-in SmartScale® Technology to deliver
HDMI with HDCP that is perfectly scaled for each connected display automatically,
eliminating the integration challenges that can occur when sources and displays
have different optimal resolutions. It accepts audio, video, control and Ethernet
over one standard twisted pair cable up to 100 meters away from a compatible
Enova DVX All-In-One Presentation Switcher, DXLink Transmitter Module or DXLink
Wallplate; it accepts all this plus power over the same twisted pair cable when used
in conjunction with the Enova DGX 8/16/32/64 Digital Media Switchers, Enova DVX­2150HD or DVX-2155HD. Mount the low-profile DXLink Receiver behind a display
or above a ceiling mounted projector and control it using the built in RS-232 or IR
ports. Plus monitor the connected display's settings, and send IR control signals
back to the head end using the same twisted pair cable.

Common Applications

The DXLink HDMI Receiver Module receives HDMI and control signals from a remote DXLink Transmitter Module,
DXLink Wallplate, Enova DGX or compatible Enova DVX. The receivers built-in control ports can be used to control
a destination device and the ICS Lan port provides IP an access point with used in conjunction with the Enova DGX
or compatible Enova DVX.

Features

 Only One Cable – Receive audio and video while passing control Ethernet and power over one twisted pair

cable

 SmartScale Technology – Automatically responds to the display's declared EDID information and scales the

video to the best resolution and video parameters for that display without manual setup; this prevents
inferior video quality when sources are forced to lower resolutions to support the least capable display in the
system

 Native NetLinx® Control Everywhere - Control connected destination devices using the built-in IR and RS-232

ports

 Standard Twisted Pair Cable – Save time and effort in installation by leveraging cost effective twisted pair

cable, see the Cabling for Success with DXLink white paper for more details

 HDCP Compliant
 DXLink Direct Connection with DXLink Wallplates – When DXLink Wallplates are receiving Power over

DXLink* from the PS-POE-AT-TC or PDXL-2, they can be connected directly to a DXLink Receiver for a point­to-point solution

Dealer Benefits

 HDMI/HDCP with the Simplicity of Analog - Hassle-free plug-and-play operation eliminates the need for

time consuming, cumbersome work-around tools to deal with HDCP key constraints and resolution
incompatibilities

 Exceed Video Quality Expectations - Integrated SmartScale Technology in the receiver automatically scales

the video, ensuring the highest resolution possible to each display

 Simplified Design and Installation - Audio, video, control, Ethernet and power are distributed over one

twisted pair cable speeding up installation at remote endpoints

Customer Benefits

 Picture Perfect - Prevents degraded video due to incompatibilities between different display resolutions by

scaling the video to match each display's preferred resolution using innovative SmartScale Technology

 Interruption Free Content - Exclusive InstaGate Pro

quickly and easily to every connected display without the difficulties typically associated with HDCP

®

Technology allows audio and video to be switched

 Audio, Video and Control Everywhere - Compact low profile design and remote powering capabilities allows

the receiver to be installed in discreet locations out of sight without additional wiring

Additional Features

 Built-in Control Ports - Control the display using the built-in IR or RS-232 control ports
 Low Profile Design - Easily mount behind a display or above a ceiling mounted projector
 IR Receiver - Send IR commands back to the Enova DGX or compatible Enova DVX to control source

equipment using an IR remote

 Power Remotely – Power over DXLink* is carried over one twisted pair to simplify installation when used

with the Enova DGX, Enova DVX, PS-POE-AT-TC or PDXL-2
