The WyreStorm RX-40 slim-line HD extender set oers

distribution of full HD video, HD audio and two-way IR
control up to 40m/131ft along a single Cat5e/6 cable
under perfect transmission conditions.

With a feature set including transmission of
uncompressed 1080p HD video@60Hz with 24bit colour,
full 3D compatibility, Dolby and DTS HD audio and
bidirectional IR control of source from display area, and

display from source location, the EX-40 also oers the
added benet of an incredibly low-prole for a greatly

reduced form factor behind the screen for even more
convenience and ease of installation at the display zone.

The EX-40 also includes integrated EDID management
on the Transmitter for manual handshake negotiation of
connected devices for greater compatibility and additional
long cable modes to maximise transmission capabilities
over the cable distance. Similarly, the EX-40 Receiver

oers manual EQ settings to ne-tune transmissions by

distance for optimal signal delivery to the display.

FEATURES AND SAFETY PRECAUTIONS

3. Safety Precautions

WARNING

To reduce the risk of fire, electric shock
or product damage:

• Protection against ESD (electrostatic discharge) included within

the unit to further stabilise transmission.

• LED indications for clear power and video signal selection.

• 5v mains supply included but receivers may be powered through the

USB port of the display using Wyrestorm USB to 5v power adaptor)

• Fully cascadable to further lengthen transmission.

*NOTE: ideal conditions denote cable run is within
specified distance range of product, no electrical
interference, the use of straight cable runs with no bends
or kinks and no patch panels or wall outlets used. Please
be advised that the presence of any of these factors in
your installation may compromise bandwidth and signal
strength. For longer transmission distances, RS232 control
and Ethernet pass-through, please see our full HDBaseT
or HDBT Lite range of matrices, transmitters, receivers and
extender sets.
