4.2. Modalità di connessione

The J-Tech Digital HDMI Extender system supports various connection modes:

4.2.1. Connessione uno a uno

In a point-to-point setup, a single Transmitter connects directly to a single Receiver via a Cat5e/6 cable. This extends the HDMI signal from one source to one display.

Diagram illustrating a one-to-one HDMI extender setup. A PC, Game Console, or Blu-ray player connects via HDMI to the Transmitter. The Transmitter connects via Cat5e/6 cable to the Receiver, which then connects via HDMI to an HDMI Display. IR cables are also shown for remote control.

4.2.2. Many-to-Many Connection (Matrix Setup)

For more complex installations, multiple Transmitters and Receivers can be connected through one or more Gigabit Ethernet switches to create a flexible HDMI matrix. This allows any source to be routed to any display, or multiple displays simultaneously.

Multiple Receivers connect to the same or cascaded Ethernet Switches, and then to HDMI Displays. IR cables are shown for remote control.

4.3. Passaggi di installazione di base

  1. Connect your HDMI source (e.g., Blu-Ray Player, Gaming Console) to the HDMI Input port of the Transmitter unit using an HDMI cable.
  2. Connect a Cat5e/6 Ethernet cable from the Ethernet port of the Transmitter to a Gigabit Ethernet switch (for matrix setup) or directly to a Receiver unit (for point-to-point).
  3. If using a matrix setup, connect Receiver units to the same or cascaded Gigabit Ethernet switches using Cat5e/6 cables.
  4. Connect your HDMI display (e.g., Monitor, Projector, Television) to the HDMI Output port of each Receiver unit using an HDMI cable.
  5. Connect the provided power adapters to all Transmitter and Receiver units, then plug them into a power outlet.
  6. For IR control, connect the IR TX cable to the Transmitter unit and position the IR emitter near the IR sensor of your source device.

5. Istruzioni per l'uso

5.1. Matrix Switching via Web Interfaccia

When using the J-Tech Digital ProAV Unlimited HDMI Extender system with a compatible Gigabit Ethernet switch, you can manage input-to-output routing via a web-based interface. Connect a computer to the same network as the switch to access its configuration menu.

This video illustrates the setup with two video sources (Apple TV and Chromecast) connected to transmitters, which then connect to a J-Tech Digital Gigabit Network Switch. Multiple receivers are connected to displays. The video demonstrates how to use a laptop to log into the web interface of the smart network switch to modify port settings and switch inputs to different outputs, showcasing the matrix functionality.

5.2. Android App Control

An Android application is available for convenient control of the matrix switching functionality. Cercare "J-Tech Digital Matrix" on Google Play to download and install the app. This allows for intuitive management of your HDMI sources and displays from a mobile device.
