DX-RX-4K (FG1010-510) 
 4K HDMI Receiver Module 
Overview 
The DXLink 4K HDMI Receiver is a 4K and Ultra High Definition (UHD) capable 
distance transport solution that 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 shielded Cat6A or Cat7 standard twisted pair cable up to 70 meters. 
Common Applications 
DXLink HDMI Receiver Modules are the perfect for receiving HDMI and control signals over long distances from a 
remote DXLink Transmitter Module or other compatible AMX Transmitter such as Solecis. The receiver's 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 100 Series. 
Features 
  4K and Ultra High Definition (UHD) Support – Experience high-quality video resolution for 4K devices.  
  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 point-topoint solution. Solecis Digital Switchers can also be used in point-to-point applications with a DXLink 
Receiver. 
* AMX only supports the following DXLink Power sourcing devices for the DX-RX: Enova DGX 800/1600/3200/6400 Digital 
Media Switcher, Compatible Enova DVX All-In-One Presentation Switcher (Enova DVX-2150HD or DVX-2155HD), PS-POEAT-TC High Power PoE Injector, PDXL-2 Power over DXLink Controller, Solecis SDX-510M-DX and SDX-514M-DX. AMX only 
supports the use of these approved Power over DXLink solutions. Other third party power supplies or non-compatible 
standard PoE solutions may damage the DXLink equipment. The DXLink HDMI 4K RX can also be powered via the included 
desktop power supply (ENERGY STAR® qualified) with power cord.

ACTIVE POWER REQUIREMENTS 
• 100 to 240 VAC single phase, 50 Hz to 60 HZ 
Power can also be supplied by a DXLink Power 
sourcing device such as an Enova DGX 100 Series 
Digital Media Switcher or Solecis 5x1 4K Digital 
Switcher (SDX-514M-DX), PS-POE-AT-TC High Power 
PoE Injector (FG423-84), or PDXL-2 Power over DXLink 
Controller (FG1090-170). AMX does not support the 
use of any other power supplies or PoE injectors as 
these may potentially damage the DXLink equipment. 
When installed in conjunction with the Enova DGX 100 
Series Digital Media Switcher, use the Enova DGX 100 
Series Configuration Tool located at 
www.amx.com/enova to determine the power 
requirements of the configuration and whether any of 
the DXLink Transmitters or Receivers should be 
powered with the local power supplies or the 
supported Power over DXLink injector. The 
configuration tool contains instructions on how to 
determine power requirements. 
AMX only supports the use of these approved Power 
over DXLink solutions. Other third party 
power supplies or non-compatible standard PoE 
solutions may damage the DXLink equipment.
