PREPA RATI O N
Before you start installing MCX-S9 products, carefully read and strictly follow the instructions below.
Only use accessories and cables that are supplied with Black Box products or purchased as required
Correctly connect all the cables
Use the correct power supplies and connect them to Black Box devices in accordance with the specification for electric construction
CONNECTING ONE TX TO ONE RX DIRECTLY
CONNECTING TX TO RX
1. Connect a video source to the encoder and a display device to the decoder.
2. Connect the MCX-S9-DEC to the MCX-S9-ENC with a network cable that meets the 10GbE specification. Be careful to plug the
network cable’s RJ-45 connectors into these devices’ 10GbE ports.
3. Connect all the devices to their power supplies. After a while, the display will show the content of the video source.
CONFIGURING TX AND RX
1. Connect your PC to the receiver with a network cable. Plug the network cable’s one end into the LAN port and the other end into
your PC’s Ethernet port.
2. Configure your PC’s network settings with IP address 169.254.1.11 and subnet mask 255.255.0.0, leaving gateway and DNS
blank.
3. Launch the matching Manager software, then maximize its window to view more contents. The software will automatically
discover the two devices: the transmitter would be shown in the Encoders section and the receiver would be shown in the Decoders
section.
4. Adjust the configurations of the two devices if necessary.
CONNECTING THE TX AND RX TO A SWITCH
1. Connect all MCX-S9-ENC and MCX-S9-DEC units to a 10GbE switch with network cables that meet the 10GbE specification. Be
careful to plug the network cable’s RJ-45 or fiber connectors into the devices’ 10GbE ports.
2. Connect your PC to the switch, making sure that all devices’ LAN ports aren’t plugged into any network cables.
3. Configure your PC’s network settings with IP address 169.254.1.11 and subnet mask 255.255.0.0, leaving gateway and DNS
blank.
4. Start the Manager software and maximize its window and the software will discover all devices automatically. The transmitters
will be shown in the Encoders section and the receivers will be shown in the Decoders section.
5. Adjust the configurations and control all devices with the Manager.

CHAPTER 2: OVERVIEW
2.1 ABOUT THIS MANUAL
This manual provides information on the MCX-S9 series encoders and decoders that deliver 4K UHD uncompressed or light
compressed video over 10GbE Ethernet networks, and discusses how to install and use them.
The term MCX-S9 series units are used to refer to all encoder and decoder models, MCX-S9-ENC/MCX-S9-DEC series units indicate
all encoders or decoders, while an MCX-S9 series unit means a single encoder or decoder.
2.2 INTRODUCTION
MCX-S9 series encoders and decoders provide a flexible, powerful, and scalable solution at resolutions up to 4096 x 2160
@ 60 Hz, 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz (4:4:4) and 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz (4:2:0 10-bit HDR). They allow uncompressed UHD media to be
switched and distributed over standard 10GbE Ethernet networks. A local area network is covered long distances over fiber optic
cable (distance depends on the SFP+ installed), or up to 328 feet (100 m) over a single CAT6a cable or above. Standard features
such as bi-directional serial, bi-directional IR and independent analog audio input/output are included. They are the perfect
solution for any zero-frame latency and signal routing applications. Common applications include classrooms, conference rooms,
performing arts, and broadcasts.

2.3 PORT DIFFERENCES
The following three ports are the main differences among MCX-S9 series units. “Yes” means this model contains the
corresponding port while “No” means not included.
TABLE 2-1. PORT DIFFERENCES
MODELS 10GBE COPPER PORT 10GBE FIBER PORT USB PORT
MCX-S9-ENC Yes Yes Yes
MCX-S9-DEC Yes Yes Yes
MCX-S9D-ENC Yes Yes Yes
MCX-S9C-ENC Yes No No
MCX-S9C-DEC Yes No No
2.4 FEATURES
HDMI 2.0 and HDCP 2.2 compliant
Lossless distribution of most timing formats
Light compression when the raw data rate exceeds the 10Gb Ethernet bandwidth
Supports input and output resolutions up to 4096 x 2160 @ 60 Hz, 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz (4:4:4) and 3840 x 2160 @ 60 Hz
(4:2:0 10-bit HDR)
Supports point-to-point transmission distance up to 328 feet (100 meters) through the 10GbE copper port or up to long distances
(distance depends on the SFP+ installed) through the 10GbE small-form-pluggable (SFP+) port
Zero-frame latency
Supports independent analog audio input and output at 2 channels, 24 bits @ 48 kHz/channel
Supports bi-directional IR, allowing control of remote source and display devices
Supports bi-directional serial, allowing control of remote RS-232 devices
