This particular conguration will allow the USB-C and both HDMI IN ports to be routed to the HDBaseT OUT port, as needed.
7. Matrix with static route conguration is complete.
30
Device Operation

Auto-Switching

The AT-OME-MS52W provides auto-switching capability, which is enabled by default. This feature will automatically switch the input to the most recently-connected source. If a source is disconnected, then the input will automatically be switched to the previously-connected source.
IMPORTANT: The auto-switching feature is only available when the Switching Mode is set to Matrix mode with static route or Disabled. Refer to Switching Modes (page 27) for more
information.

Enabling / Disabling Auto Switching

By default, auto-switching is enabled on the AT-OME-MS52W, allowing the unit to automatically switch between inputs when sources are connected or disconnected. Auto-switching is always enabled when set to Matrix mode with static route and cannot be disabled.
1. Login to the web server. Refer to Logging in to the Web Server (page 22) for more information.
2. Click Display in the side menu bar.

802.1X Authentication

802.1X is a server-based port authentication protocol which restricts unauthorized (rogue) clients from connecting to
a Local Area Network through a public port. In its simplest form, 802.1X usually involves three parties: supplicant (client device), authenticator (Ethernet switch), and an authentication server. Before the device is permitted on the network, port communication is restricted to Extensible Authentication Protocol over LAN (EAPOL) trac. If the device passes the authentication process, then the authentication server noties the switch, allowing the client to access the LAN. A full explanation of the 802.1X protocol is beyond the scope of this manual. However, the illustration below shows the basic architecture.
