**Wiring and Connections

**

HDMI Cables
The AC-EXO-X-KIT uses the standard 19-pin HDMI female connector ports for the inputs and outputs. ****

NOTE:| Ensure all HDMI cables and devices can support the signal being sent. For maximum performance, an Ultra-High Speed HDMI cable rated for 48Gbps will be more than sufficient to satisfy signal transport if every device in the system can handle the signal.
---|---
TIP:| Ensure your HDMI cable is the correct length. The current HDMI specification calls for cables to be between 2 to 10 meters (6.6 to 33 feet). Smaller wire cables may be unable to transmit higher bandwidth signals like 4K60 over distances of even 5 meters (16 feet).

USB Ports
Both the transmitter and receiver each have one USB Type C port that functions as both a secondary power input as well as a servicing port for AVPro Edge technical  assistance in the event of testing and troubleshooting.
RS-232 Wiring
Serial control connections are made using the provided 3-pin terminal block connector.The wire slips into the hole and locks with a screw located at the top of the connector.
AVPro edge AC-EXO-X-KIT 8K Fiber Optic Extender Kit - Panel Overview
3
Wiring for this port uses a 3-pin terminal block connector to DB9, where only pins 2, 3, and 5 are used.
If the control devices do not have a DB9 port, a USB to DB9 adapter may be required.
For RS-2
32 control, use a null modem serial cable adapter and set the serial communications to:
Baud: 57600, no parity, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, no handshaking. Add a carriage return (Enter key) after each command when using direct commands. The unified ASCII command list can be located here.
IR Wiring
IR connections are made using the provided 3.5mm IR Emitter and IR Eye (receiver. AVPro edge AC-EXO-X-KIT 8K Fiber Optic Extender Kit - Panel
Overview 4

IR can be used in three ways:

  1. From Rack (Control System Direct): Connect a 3.5mm mono jack (TS) cable into an emitter port of any control system directly into the I-PASS port on the transmitter to pass IR signals directly to the remote end.
  2. From Rack (Using IR-Eye): Connect the provided IR receiver eye cable into the IR-EYE port of the transmitter to pass infrared signals generated from a device or IR remote.
  3. From Remote End: Connect the provided IR receiver eye cable into the IR OUT port on the receiver in order to send IR signals back to the rack and out of the transmitter’s IR OUT port with an emitter.

Power Connections

Fiber optic cables do not carry an electrical current and cannot supply power from one unit to another. Here are some recommended solutions to power both units.
First, power one unit with the provided 48V power supply. Next, power the other unit using one of the following options listed below:

  1. USB charger brick to USB-C input
  2. Power output to power input with 18-2 cable*
  3. Sink (TV or AVR) USB-A port to USB-C input

AVPro edge AC-EXO-X-KIT 8K Fiber Optic Extender Kit - Panel Overview
5 Note:
The AC-EXO-X-KIT must be powered from both units in order for complete operation.
Fiber Optic Cables
Single mode fiber is typically used for “long hauls”, or long distance buried cabling i.e., used by telecommunication companies for country-wide distribution. Single mode fiber should be used in applications over 1000 feet (300 meters).
Multimode fiber is commonly seen in the professional/custom electronics sector, with shorter runs of up to 1000 feet (300 meters). Multimode fiber is used in both residential and commercial applications for on-premise infrastructure.
Types of Fiber

Simplex A single strand of fiber optic cable, comes in a single jacket.
Duplex Two strands of fiber optic cable, comes in a dual, fused jacket.
6-Strain Six strands of fiber, comes in a single jacket, individual strands

are color coded.
12-Strain| 12 strands of fiber, comes in a single jacket, individual strands are color coded.

OM Grades
OM (Optical Multimode) grades only apply to multimode fiber. The grade is determined by the clarity of the glass.

OM2 500Mhz, typically comes in an orange jacket.
OM3 2000Mhz, typically comes in an aqua blue jacket. Most common grade of

fiber.
OM4| 4700Mhz, typically comes in a violet or aqua blue jacket.

Note:
For maximum performance, AVPro Edge recommends using OM3 Cleerline SFF™ fiber.

Connector Types

LC (Lucent Connector)
Universal connector, most commonly seen in networking. Can be terminated in the field, with some connectors able to support more than one strand.
Note: Ensure the fiber is terminated with LC connectors.

Installation

General Application

  1. Connect the 48V power supply to Power In port on either the transmitter or receiver, then power the other using one of the options listed in the Power Connections section.
    Note: The AC-EXO-X-KIT must be powered from both units in order for complete operation.

  2. Connect the transmitter’s Opt. Fiber LC / Tx port to the receiver’s Opt. Fiber LC / Rx port with a simplex multimode fiber optic cable terminated with LC connectors.

  3. Connect the HDMI source device to the HDMI In port on the transmitter with an HDMI cable.

  4. Connect the HDMI output device to the HDMI Out 1 port on the receiver with an HDMI cable.

Downscaled Outputs
Both the HDMI Loop Out port on the transmitter and the HDMI Out 2 port on the receiver automatically downscale 4K video signals to 1080p. This allows legacy devices, such as an AVR or 1080p display, to play the same source content without having to downgrade the entire system’s capabilities.
The diagram below illustrates an example of utilizing both downscaled outputs with a 1080p legacy display on the Scaled HDMI Out 2 port on the receiver. AVPro edge AC-EXO-X-KIT 8K Fiber Optic Extender Kit - Panel Overview
6This setup is ideal for installations with an HDMI 2.1 display and up to 2 legacy devices.
Connect all the devices in the system using the previous steps outlined above. Ensure the HDMI 2.1 display is connected to the receiver’s HDMI Out 1 port.

Settings and Functionalities

EDID Management (Transmitter)
The transmitter (AC-EXO-X-T) comes equipped with dipswitches located underneath the device for selecting an EDID.
Dipswitches 1, 2, 3, and 4 correspond to the EDID jumper settings. Flip the dipswitches up (“on” or “1”) or down (“off” or “0”) to select the corresponding EDID setting.
