UHBX Wall Plates
1.0 Introduction
This manual covers Hall Research's wall plate components of UHBX series
of HDMI extenders. The wall plate transmitters can be purchased just by
themselves or as a kit that includes a compatible receiver. The basic HDMI
sender fits in a single gang Decora® style wall plate and is capable of
sending a video signal to a compatible receiver to a maximum of 150 meters
(500 ft) using a single Cat6 cable (Receiver type determines the max distance
that can be 70m, 100m, or 150m).
A second single-gang module can be added to the wall plate to provide RS232 and IR extension in both directions. The RS-232 can operate at any baud
rate including 115,200 at all times.and the IR extension is fully compatible
with all standards (SONY, NEC, RC5, SHARP, RCA, etc).
The wall plate is powered though the Cat6 cable eliminating the need for a
separate power supply connection. The wall plate conforms to HDBaseT
power standard (PoH or IEEE802.3af), making it compatible with any
certified HDBaseT power sourcing equipment.
The wall plate sender may be connected to projectors or TVs that have direct
HDBaseT inputs. In this case no external receiver would be needed. A PoH
inserter will be required (Hall Research part number 511-POH-17W).
2.0 Features
• Extends HDMI or DVI video up to 500 ft on just one Cat6
• RS232 and IR extension in both directions with optional add-on
• Supports all HDMI or DVI resolutions including 4K (UHD)
• Wall plate does not need power connection (powered via UTP)
• Power-over-HDBaseT (PoH) meets IEEE 802.3af standard
• Sturdy and compact metal construction
• Fully compatible with HDBaseT standard
• Includes Mud-Ring for easy installation (no electrical box needed)
• RS232 supports baud rates to 115K
• IR extension meets all standards regardless of format or frequency
• Fully isolates ground between TX and RX sides
• Locking HDMI input connector
• Made in USA

4.0 UHBX-S-WP Wall plate Transmitter
The UHBX-S-WP is an HDMI on Cat6 (HDBaseT) single gang wall plate
Transmitter. The package includes the following:
• UHBX-S-WP Decora® metal insert
• Standard white plastic Decora® face-plate
• Mud-ring for dry wall installation.
4.1 Compatible Receivers
The wall plate sender is compatible with any HDBaseT receiver that
complies with PoH (or IEEE 802.3af) and can source power (PSE) such as
Hall Research Model UHBX-R-PSE.
The UHBX-R-PSE receiver supplies power to the wall plate, and also
features "Long Reach" mode allowing extension to 150 m (approx 500 ft).
This combination is of UHBX-S-WP (wall plate sender ) and UHBX-R-PSE
(receiver) can be purchased as a kit that includes both. The kit part number is
UHBX-WP-P2.

The wall plate can also be used with the lower cost UH-1BTX-R (max
distance 100 meters) or the economical UH-1BT-R (max distance 70 meters),
however since these do not provide power, a compatible PoH inserter is
required (Hall Research part number 511-POH-17W).
4.2 Connection Block Diagrams
Following are typical ways to configure the extension system.
4.2.1 Recommended Connection Scheme
The UHBX-R-PSE receiver is recommended for use with the HDMI wall
plate sender. It is a compact box with only a single 5v power supply. It
complies with the required PoH handshake and only injects power on to the
UTP cable after detecting a compliant device on the other end.
The UHBX-R-PSE receiver also features a user settable switch for activating
“Long Reach” mode in order to support distances in excess of 100 meters (to
150 m). It also provides RS-232 and IR connectors to allow adding extension
of control signals (see section 5.2).

4.2.1 Alternate Connection Scheme
It is possible to use the lower cost receivers UH-1BTX-R (max distance 100
meters) or the economical UH-1BT-R (max distance 70 meters), however
since these do not provide power, a PoH inserter is required (Model 511POH-17W).

5.0 UHCOM-WP RS232+IR Accessory for UHBX-S-WP
The UHCOM-WP is a single gang wall plate option for UHBX-S-WP to add
RS232+IR compatibility. The package includes the following:
• UHCOM-WP Decora® metal insert
• Standard 2-gang white plastic Decora® face-plate
• 2-gang mud-ring for dry wall installation.
• Interconnect cable for connection to UHBX-S-WP
5.1 Connecting to UHBX-S-WP
As mentioned above the UHCOM-WP includes a short cable for connection
to the UHBX-S-WP Sender . On the rear of both wall plates there is a small
connector. Plug the supplied cable to both connectors. The plug and
receptacles are keyed so there is only one way to plug them in.

6.0 Model 511-POH-17W PoH Compliant Power Inserter
The 511-POH-17W is a PoH compliant power inserter that can be used to
power one end of an HDBaseT link. It passes the UTP signals across while at
the same time injects 48v power for the PD (powered device). The supply
complies with the IEEE 802.3af and will only apply power to the cable if a
compliant device is connected.
For example you can use the power injector to power the UHBX-S-WP wall
plate transmitter if the receiver does not supply power via the UTP cable.
Some TV’s and projectors have direcct HDBaseT inputs (receiver is built in
to the display), but may not be able to send power to the wall plate. So, to
connect the Wall-plate transmitter to the display, the 511-POH-17W inserter
can be utilized.
The inserter has a universal AC input and can be connected to 115~230v AC.
The package includes the following:
• Power supply module
• North American Power cord (customer must provide their own AC
input cables when used with other standards)
• 6 ft UTP Cable.
The inserter can be connected at either end, but it is recommended to locate it
at the remote end of the HDBaseT extension as shown above.

The Decora® units are 1.8” deep and have connectors on the back side.

7.0 Installation
When using UHBX-R-PSE receiver, please refer to its User Manual
UMA1215) for details on that device including configuration of the Long
(
Reach mode or details on IR and RS-232 extension.
7.1 Mounting the Transmitter and Heat Dissipation
The UHBX-S-WP comes with a single gang mud-ring. When used in
conjunction with the UHCOM-WP add-on, a two gang mud-ring is supplied.
It is recommended to use the mud rings for installation. The mud ring has no
back so the unit’s rear is not sealed and allows for better heat dissipation.
If for some reason you have to use an electrical box, make sure to use a metal
box with open the holes to allow airflow. Never use a plastic box as it
restricts airflow and insulates the device causing excessive heat build-up that
can shorten the device’s life.
The UHBX-S-WP dissipates approximately 2.5 watts of power, so the unit
will be warm to the touch, this is normal, the temperature is well within UL
limits and the circuit components are designed to operate at these
temperatures. Do not install the unit in a plastic electrical box, though the
device will continue to operate, the elevated circuit temperature may cause
the unit to fail prematurely.
Note
If a wall box is to be used, we recommend a wall box which has a depth
of at least 2.5 inches to accommodate the connectors and cables.
