Our HSP14CS 4K HDBaseT™ CSC splitter distributes a single HDMI 2.0 4K 60Hz 4:4:4 source
to four simultaneous HDBaseT™ outputs. The HSP14CS splitter utilises CSC technology to
deliver HDMI, Bi-directional IR and PoH (PoE) up to lengths of 70m (40m 4K 60Hz 4:4:4) over
a single CAT cable. The 4-Way splitter also features audio breakout, EDID management and
HDMI loop out for integrating local displays or cascading to multiple devices.

Understanding the Splitter / Receiver status lights
The Blustream splitter and HDBaseT™ extender solutions include status LED indicators on both the splitter and receiver products
to show all connections are active and to help diagnose possible problems.
Understanding the status lights:-
Blustream HSP14CS splitter:
• The Yellow HDBaseT™ status link light will be o when the zone output has been turned o or there is a problem with the specific
splitter output.
• The Yellow HDBaseT™ status link light will blink when the zone output is on and working
• The Green HDBaseT™ link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Blustream splitter and HDBaseT™
receiver
• The Green HDBaseT™ link light will be lit when there is an active HDBaseT™ receiver connected to the splitter
• The Green HDBaseT™ link light will be o when there is no connection with a HDBaseT™ receiver
Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver:
• The HDMI link light will be o when there is no connection with a display
• The HDMI link light will be on when there is an active connection with a display (NOTE - Not all HDBaseT™ RX feature a HDMI
status LED)
• The HDBaseT™ link light will be o when there is no CAT cable/active HDBaseT™ connection on the RJ45 HDBaseT input
• The HDBaseT™ link light will blink if there is an unstable connection between the Blustream splitter and HDBaseT™ receiver
• The HDBaseT™ link light will be lit when a CAT cable is connected to the HDBaseT™ RJ45 output on the splitter and an active
connection is achieved with the Blustream HDBaseT™ receiver.
EDID Control
EDID (Extended Display Identification Data) is a data structure that is used between a display and a source. This data is used by
the source to find out what audio and video resolutions are supported by the display.
audio format of the source and display device you can reduce the time need for EDID hand shaking thus making switching quicker
and more reliable.
Configuration of HSP14CS splitter EDID settings is achieved by using EDID dip-switches located on the rear of the splitter - See below
