| FAQ's - hosted by Key Digital's System Design Group |
Q: |
"Do you need to use two CAT cables with the KD-CATHD100 and KD-CATHD150 / KD-CATHD150Rx baluns?" |
A: |
Yes, two CAT5e/6 cables are required. The "Data" line carries EDID and HDCP data. Without this data exchange, your source will not output a signal. |
Q: |
"Will your control routing features work if I am not using Compass Control?" |
A: |
Yes, our control routing features will work with any control system. |
Q: |
“How does IR signal extension work on your HDBaseT baluns
KD-CATHD300Lite, KD-CATHD500Pro” |
A: |
The Rx port of each balun is connected to the Tx port of the other balun. Send your IR signal into the Rx port of one balun and it will come out the Tx port of the other balun. The Rx port receives the IR signal and the Tx port transmits it to the device you wish to control. |
