Captive Screw
Connecting
Captive screw connectors are an added feature on the UHD extender. The captive screw connectors allow you 
to cut cables down to a suitable length, reduce cable clutter, while providing a more reliable connection.
The captive screw connectors have 
a contact bar that is adjusted to 
compress the wire against the top 
contact plate. Use the screws at the 
top of the connector to compress the 
wire against the contact plate.
When connecting the cables to the female captive screw connector it is important that the wires be 
terminated correctly. The female captive screw connector has a contact plate at the top and must have the 
wires touching it for signal to pass. When wired correctly 
(see picture A)
the signal will pass, incorrectly
(see
picture B)
no signal will pass.
Female captive screw connectors are included: Power
(see picture 1)
,
RS-232
(see picture 2)
, and IR
(see picture 3)
.
The power cable
(picture

will have exposed
wires. Each wire is 
encased in a different 
colored cover.

Note: The IR receiver is optional for the UHD-EX-100CE-KIT and RX box. The compatible IR receiver (AT-IR-CS-RX) can 
be purchased through atlona.com.
The wires of the emitter and receiver have been marked to differenciate the pin outs.
The included IR emitter has two wires: signal and ground. Signal will have a solid line and ground will be 
blank. The IR emitter will plug into the IR OUT ports.
There are three wires on the IR receiver
(
AT-IR-CS-RX sold separately
)
: signal, ground, and power. Signal has a
dotted line, ground will be blank, and power will have a solid line. The IR receiver will plug into the IR IN 
ports.
