3.2 Installation
Figure 3 – UHBX-3S Application Diagram
As shown in the diagram above, UHBX-3S is used to extend a single video
source to three (3) remote displays, located within 500 ft (150 m) from the
source. It also provides an additional HDMI output for connection to a local
display or for daisy chaining to another UHBX-3S for more HDBaseT outputs.
When the UHBX-3S is used with UHBX-R-PD receivers, the RS-232 and Power
(PoH) signals are also extended on the same Cat 6 cable. The RS-232 In port is
used to send/receive commands or data to/from remote displays connected at the
output. Special RS-232 commands are provided to selectively communicate with
any individual output (Please refer to Section 5 for more details.).
Note: By default the output port numbers are assigned address 1 through 3. If
RS-232 ports are daisy chained among several UHBX-3S devices then the user
must assign different port numbers to each box so each HDBaseT output has a
unique address. In order to do this the user must connect each additional box to a
PC using the supplied using a USB cable (cable is type A to mini-USB) and
utilize the "UHBX-3S Manager Software" available for download from Hall
Research website.
Multiple UHBX-3S boxes can be daily-chained together as shown below.
