Wiring and Connections

WyreStorm recommends that all wiring for the installation is run and terminated prior to making connections to the switcher.  Read through this section in its 

entirety before running or terminating the wires to ensure proper operation and to avoid damaging equipment.

  IMPORTANT! Wiring Guidelines

 

• 

The use of patch panels, wall plates, cable extenders, kinks in cables, and 
electrical or environmental interference will have an adverse effect on 

signal transmission which may limit performance.  Steps should be taken 

to minimize or remove these factors completely during installation for best 

results

•  WyreStorm recommends using pre-terminated HDMI and DP cables due to 

the complexity of these connector types.  Using pre-terminated cables will 
ensure that these connections are accurate and will not interfere with the 
performance of the product.

IR TX/RX Guidelines

 

• 

Using WyreStorm infrared emitters and receivers is the best way to ensure 
that most IR coding formats are transmitted and received Other 3rd party 
emitters and receivers can be used; however, these devices must operate in 
the same manner as the WyreStorm devices.

•  Due to differences in IR across 3rd party control systems their IR ports 

should never be connected directly to a NetworkHD system as an 

incompatibility may exist. WyreStorm offers a cable that compensates for 

voltage differences as well adjusts for differences in the pins used within 

the port. Refer to the 

CAB-IR-LINK

 product page for more information.

IR TX Port Pinout

Connection for IR TX (transmit) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) mono plug.

IR RX Port Pinout

Connection for IR RX (receive) uses a 3.5mm (1/8in) stereo jack that outputs 
+5V DC to power the included IR receiver. 

RS-232 Wiring

The RXV-70-4K uses a 3-pin RS-232 with no hardware flow control.  Most 
control systems and computers are DTE where pin 2 is RX, this can vary 
from device to device.  Refer to the documentation for the connected device 

for pin functionally to ensure that the correct connections can be made.
