IN1608 Series • Setup Guide (Continued)

Step 2 

 Connect inputs

a. 

Connect analog video sources to the VGA connectors (see figure 1, 

B

 on page 1).

b. 

Connect digital HDMI or DVI (with an appropriate adapter) sources to the HDMI connectors (see figure 1, 

C

).

c. 

Connect a DTP transmitter to the DTP input connectors (see figure 1, 

D

). For cable wiring and recommendations, see 

Twisted Pair 

Recommendations for DTP Communication

 below.

Signal LED

 

 Lights green when the unit is receiving an active video signal from a DTP transmitter. 

Link LED

 

 Lights amber when a valid link is established to a DTP transmitter.

d. 

To pass serial, infrared data, or other control signals (for serial control of a source), connect the control device to the RS-232 and IR Over 
DTP captive screw connectors (see 

RS-232 and IR Over DTP Wiring

 on page 3).

e. 

Connect analog audio input sources to the 5-pole captive screw connectors (see figure 1, 

E

). See 

Audio Wiring

 on page 3.

f. 

Connect Mic/Line audio input sources to the 3-pole captive screw connectors (see figure 1, 

F

).

Step 3 

 Connect outputs

a. 

Connect a DTP receiver to the DTP output connector (see figure 1, 

G

). For cable wiring and recommendations, see 

Twisted Pair 

Recommendations for DTP Communication

 below. 

Signal LED

 

 Lights green when the IN1608 is outputting active video to a DTP receiver. 

Link LED

 

 Lights amber when a valid link is established between the IN1608 and a DTP receiver.

b. 

To pass serial, infrared data, or other control signals to a DTP device, connect a control device to the RS-232 and IR Over DTP captive 
screw connector (see 

RS-232 and IR Over DTP Wiring

 on page 3).

c. 

Connect suitable video displays to the HDMI connectors (see figure 1, 

H

).

d. 

Connect analog audio output devices to the 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors (see figure 1, 

I

). See 

Audio Wiring

 on page 3.

e. 

For SA, MA, and IPCP models, connect an audio output device to the 5 mm, 4-pole or 2-pole captive screw connector (see figure 1, 

J

).

Step 4 

 Connect control devices

a. 

To control non-IPCP models through Ethernet, connect a LAN or WAN to the LAN connector (see 

M

 on page 1). For the IPCP models,  

connect a LAN or WAN to any of the LAN connectors on the IPCP Pro control processor (see figure 1, 

L

). The default IP address is 

192.168.254.254. The default subnet mask is 255.255.0.0.

b. 

For serial RS-232 control, connect a host device to the 3-pole captive screw connector (see figure 1, 

K

). The default baud rate is 9600.

c. 

For control through USB, connect a host device to the front panel USB mini-B port (see figure 2, 

A

).

Step 5 

 Set up the IPCP Pro control processor (IN1608 IPCP models only)

See the 

IPCP Pro Series Setup Guide

 for installation details.

Step 6 

 Connect power

Connect a 100 to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz power source to the AC power connector (see figure 1, 

A

).

Twisted Pair Recommendations for DTP Communication

Extron recommends using the following practices to achieve full transmission distances and reduce 
transmission errors:

• 

Use Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cable for the best performance. At a minimum, Extron recommends 
24 AWG, solid conductor, STP cable with a minimum bandwidth of 400 MHz.

• 

Terminate cables with shielded connectors to the TIA/EIA-T568B standard (shown to the right).

• 

Limit the use of more than two pass-through points, which may include patch points, punch down 
connectors, couplers, and power injectors. If these pass-through points are required, use shielded 
couplers and punch down connectors.

ATTENTION:

 

• 

Do not connect these connectors to a computer or telecommunications network.

• 

Ne connectez pas ces ports à des données informatiques ou à un réseau de télécommunications.

• 

DTP remote power is intended for indoor use only. No part of the network that uses DTP remote power should be routed outdoors.

• 

L’alimentation DTP à distance est destiné à une utilisation en intérieur seulement. Aucune partie du réseau qui utilise l’alimentation DTP 
à distance ne peut être routée en extérieur.

NOTE:

 

When using shielded twisted pair cable in bundles or conduits, consider the following:

• 

Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.

• 

Do not comb the cable for the first 20 meters, where cables are straightened, aligned, and secured in tight bundles.

• 

Loosely place cables and limit the use of tie wraps or hook-and-loop fasteners.

• 

Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.
