products, our USB to 5v power cables overcome the 

problem of having a second mains outlet behind the TV. 

These useful leads draw power from the USB port of the 

display to power the receiver, this also means that the 

receiver is only powered when the display is on making 

the system more energy efficient and environmentally 

friendly.

Are Wyrestorm products compatible with HDMI 1.4?

HDMI 1.4 refers to a list of ‘features’ that a device is 

capable of supporting, including Ethernet channel, return 

audio channel, 3Detc. Due to the continuously evolving 

nature of the technology, HDMI Licensing LLC have now 

decided to simplify terminology by testing and referring to 

cable in terms of STANDARD or HIGH-SPEED rather than 

in generations 1.3, 1.4 etc.

• STANDARD (or “category 1”) HDMI cables perform 

at speeds of 75Mhz or up to 6.75Gbps, which is the 

equivalent to a 720p/1080i signal – These HDMI cables 

are NOT recommended.

• All Wyrestorm equipment support HIGH-SPEED 

(or “category 2”) HDMI cables that have been tested 

to perform at speeds of 340Mhz or up to 10.2Gbps, 

which is the highest bandwidth currently utilised over 

an HDMI cable and can successfully handle 1080p 

signals including those at increased colour depths and/ 

or increased refresh rates from the Source. High-Speed 

cables are also able to accommodate higher resolution 

displays, such as WQXGA cinema monitors (resolution of 

2560 x 1600).

What about screens with different resolution 

capabilities?

When sending a signal point to point a TV will 

communicate it’s capabilities to the source, then the 

source will output a suitable signal that compatible (i.e. 

1080p Stereo audio). If you were to use a matrix switch 

with three 1080p screens and one 1080i screen, the 

resultant image would be1080i across all screens. The 

matrix switches do not scale per output but instead 

negotiate with the source a signal that all screens are 

capable of supporting.

How does the Matrix cope with HDCP?

HDCP (High Definition Copyright Protection) is a feature 

built in to HDMI devices to prevent theft of or illegal 

distribution of HD content. Unlike competing products,

Wyrestorm matrix switches are legal and comply with 

HDCP regulations. They do this by assigning a “key” to 

every display connected to the switch. HDCP “keys” are 

assigned to a display when connected to a HDMI device 

normally. This doesn’t change when connected to a 

switch; it just assigns more of them.

I can get 1080i but not 1080p at a TV location

Firstly ensure that both the source is capable of outputting 

1080p and that the TV is Full HD 1080p screen. If this is 

the case then the AMP, 70 metre receiver or PP Matrix 

may require EDID management setting up using the DIP 

switches. This useful feature provides a successful “send 

and receive” to ensure swift and stable EDID negotiation 

between the source and display.  See Troubleshooting 

section for more tips on problem solving.

I cannot get a signal from my A/V receiver along a 

Cat 5e extender set

Check to ensure that the A/V Receiver isn’t adding CEC

(HDMI Control Protocol) to the outgoing signal, this can 

sometimes have an effect on the HDMI signal.
