2.1  HDBase T Connections 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Each Leaf True breakout is connected to the interface by way of a single Cat5e/6 cable 
to the HDBaseT output or zone ports across the lower part of the front panel. 

2.2  Ethernet Ports 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The  Ethernet  ports  across  the  upper  part  of the  front  panel  of  LT88E  are  for  optional 
connection  of  Ethernet  facilities  for  direct  routing  to  remote  Ethernet  ports  at  each 
LTB1E breakout. 

The Ethernet connection is 100Base-T full duplex. An external Ethernet router / switch 
may be added for added flexibility and performance.   

The  Orange  LED  on  the  Ethernet  ports  indicate  handshake  between  the  LT88E  and 
host Ethernet devices to which it is connected, but does not  necessarily indicate data 
flow from end to end. 

 

2.3  Front Panel LED display and selection buttons 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

16 multi colour (

cyan

 / 

blue

) Light Emitting Diodes (LEDs) and 2 press button 

switches are fitted at the right hand end of the front panel. 

 

The LEDS are  arranged in two rows of 8.  

The upper row relating to the input sources 1 to 8 from left to right. 

The lower row relates to the output zones 1 to 8 from left to right.  

Green 

LEDS indicate actively switched inputs and outputs. 

Cyan 

LEDs indicate exclusive source (zone lock) switched inputs and outputs. 

Blue

 LEDs indicate a switching function or a supervisory function in progress.  

Left press button switch  

 

Right press button switch
