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).
