CBL-MULTI-HD-6
Multihead Cable
Installation Guide
Introduction
The Crestron
®
CBL-MULTI-HD-6 multihead cable is a
directional cable that automatically detects and
converts input signals from HDMI
®
, DisplayPort™, Mini
DIsplayPort, and USB Type-C™ sources to HDMI
signals at 1080p/60 Hz resolution for use with the
CCS-UC-1 Tabletop Conference System.
The cable consists of the multihead connector to
connect to laptops and other sources, and a six-foot
cable that splits into two short leads with USB and
HDMI connectors that connect to the Crestron
Mercury™ Tabletop Conference System.
3. Create a generous bend radius at both
connections, and press the cable into the cable
channel shown below.
4. Apply power to the CCS-UC-1.
Operation
1. On the CCS-UC-1, select
HDMI
as the source to
present.
2. Connect the source to the appropriate connector
on the multihead. The source’s content displays
on the display device connected to the
CCS-UC-1.
NOTE:
Do not use extension cables. Using an
extension to any connector results in failure and/or
intermittent audio and video.
NOTE:
Only one input source should be connected
at a time.
NOTE:
The multihead cable does not scale the video
signal.

Installation
This cable is directional. Place the multihead on a table
so that users can connect to sources (laptops or other
presentation devices). To connect the cable to the
CCS-UC-1, follow this procedure:
1. Remove power from the CCS-UC-1.
2. Route the cable’s HDMI and USB connectors
through the underside of the CCS-UC-1, and
connect them to the HDMI IN and USB/ACC
ports.
NOTE:
Do not connect the HDMI connector to the
HDMI OUT port on the CCS-UC-1. The cable is
directional and cannot be used in that direction.
NOTE:
The CBL-MULTI-HD-6 requires external
power of 300 mA provided by the USB/ACC port. This
power can also be supplied by a device with a USB
HID port that supplies more than 300 mA, or a 2 to 10
watt USB charging device (not included).
NOTE:
Do not connect the USB connector to the
USB/CAM port on the CCS-UC-1.
