3.7. Cascadability

HDMI 1x4 Distribution Hubs may be cascaded in order
to send an HDMI signal to more than four (4) displays.
In fact by using the Local Monitor port of the
Distribution Hub, in theory an unlimited number of
Hubs may be connected in a daisy-chain configuration.
This is possible because a clean video signal is
regenerated at each Distribution Hub.

In more practical terms, the Distribution Hubs would
typically be connected in a tree configuration:

Regardless of the configuration chosen, the EDID
selector on each Hub should be set to Position 1 or 2 in
order to avoid conflicts.

NOTE: When cascading via UTP cables, cable lengths
must be kept within 75% of maximum allowable
distance (see Technical Specifications, page 6).
