Installation Instructions
Basic Installation
1.
Configure the gigabit switch for IP video operation. Liberty has guides for many common switch manufacturers
on the IPEXCB page on the Liberty website (www.libav.com).
2.
Turn off power and disconnect the audio/video equipment by following the manufacturer’s instructions.
3.
Turn off power to the configured switch.
4.
Connect Category 5E or greater twisted pair cable with the TIA/EIA-568B crimp pattern between the LAN
port on the encoder(s) (IPEX2001) and the gigabit switch.
5.
Connect Category 5E or greater twisted pair cable with the TIA/EIA-568B crimp pattern between the LAN
port on the decoder(s) (IPEX2002) and the gigabit switch.
6.
If the gigabit switch cannot provide power or enough power to the IPEX2001 or IPEX2002, connect the
included power supply to the 12V DC power input of the device. If the gigabit switch cannot provide enough
power, disable the PoE function of the connected LAN ports on the switch.
7.
Connect an HDMI cable between the display and the decoder (IPEX2002).
8.
Connect an HDMI cable between the source and the encoder (IPEX2001).
9.
Power on attached audio/video devices.
10.
Apply power to the gigabit switch.
11.
If the gigabit switch cannot provide power to the IPEX2001 or IPEX2002, connect the included power supply
connected to the encoders and decoders to an AC outlet.
RS232 Connections
Audio Output Connections
To use the RS232 control transport capabilities of the IPEXCB or the RS232 extension capabilities of the IPEX2001
or IPEX2002, connect the TX, RX, and ground control signal wires to the removable 3-pole terminal block. Consult
the manual of the source or display device(s) to determine which pins the TX and RX signals are carried on. Be sure
to always connect TX to RX and RX to TX.
To use the analog audio outputs of the IPEX2001 or IPEX2002, connect the L, R, and ground wires to the removable
3-pole terminal block. Connect the other end of the cable to an audio amplifier.
