DL-44E-H2-KIT Quick Guide
Product Overview
The DL-44E-H2-KIT is an HDMI 2.0 compable 4x4 matrix switcher kit which consists of an HDMI and
HDBaseT matrix switcher, 3 compable HDBaseT receivers and accessories. The HDMI and HDBaseT matrix switcher features 4 HDMI inputs, 3 HDBaseT outputs + 1 HDMI output. Digital and/or
analog audio can be de-embedded from the 4th output (HDMI). The matrix switcher supports EDID
management, is HDCP 2.2 and HDMI 2.0 compliant. The 3 HDBaseT transmier outputs are compatible only with the 3 HDBaseT receivers that are included with the kit. The HDBaseT extender circuits
are capable of extending 4K/60Hz 4:4:4 signals up to 40m, 1080p up to 70m all while powering the
remote receivers using CAT6 F/UTP rated cable for each extension circuit. The HDBaseT receivers can
also extend bi-direconal IR that can be free-routed from the HDBaseT receiver locaons to the local
switcher to allow exible control of sources or devices living in the A/V headend.
The DigitaLinx DL-44E-H2-KIT can transport HDMI data rates up to 18Gbps over HDBaseT. The system
enables high data rates by ulizing visual lossless compression at a 2:1 data compression rate when
the signal surpasses 10Gbps, anything under 10Gbps will never be compressed. Supports stac HDR
(HDR10) only when data rate exceeds 18Gbps, supports dynamic HDR (HDR10+ / Dolby Vision) when
data rate is 10Gbps or less.
The switcher kit can be controlled either by front panel buons, IR remote, TCP/IP, RS232 or by the
internal built in web GUI/server. For a list of available control IP and RS232 control commands for,
please see the owners manual for this product located online at www.libav.com.

Connecvity Instrucons
1. Verify all components included with the DL-44E-H2-KIT set are present before installaon.
2. If the DL-44E-H2-KIT is going to be permanently mounted in a rackmount case, aach the included
mounng brackets with the supplied screws.
3. Turn o power and disconnect the audio/video equipment by following the manufacturer’s
instrucons.
4. Connect Category 6 or greater twisted pair cable with RJ45 connectors between the DL-44E-H2KIT HDBaseT output / transmiers to the supplied receivers. TIA/EIA-568B straight-through wiring
connecons must be used.
5. Connect an HDMI cable that is less to or equal to 5 meters in length between the display and the
HDMI output of the DL-44E-H2-KIT HDBaseT receiver.
6. Connect an HDMI cable that is less to or equal to 5 meters in length between the display and
the HDMI output of the DL-44E-H2-KIT. For display devices that are further away, an HDMI extension
device will be required to complete the connecon.
7. Connect a source device to the HDMI inputs using a HDMI cable that is less than or equal to 5
meters in length. For source devices that are further away, an HDMI extension device will be required
to complete the connecon.
8. Connect RS232 control to a 3rd party control system to control switcher funcons (oponal)

Cabling Wiring Requirements
HDBaseT Cabling
To ensure proper performance of the DL-44E-H2-KIT HDBaseT circuits, it is recommended
that you use solid core, shielded Category 6 F/UTP cabling at a minimum. Category 5e
F/UTP may perform well but may not support power over HDBaseT reliably over longer
distances.
When using shielded category cabling ALWAYS...
....use shielded connectors
....properly ground the category cable
For opmized HDBaseT performance use the following Liberty Wire and Cable branded
cabling;
Category 6 NON-plenum; 24-4P-L6SHCategory 6A NON -plenum; 24-4P-L6ASH
Twisted Pair Wiring
Use TIA/EIA-568B wiring for Category 6
connecon between send and receive
units.
RS232 Wiring
Some controllers may not have a DB9 port available for RS232
communicaon, but may have removable terminal block
connecons. Consult the manual of the control device(s) to
determine which pins the TX/RX signals are carried on. Be
sure to always connect TX to RX and RX to TX.

Passing IR Signals:
The DL-44E-H2-KIT is capable of passing IR signals between 33 and 55 KHz. To prevent
damage to any of the electronics, the extenders should be powered o while inserng or
removing any IR components. Inserng an IR transmier into the IR IN port may damage
the IR circuit for that extender.
