Hardware Reference Manual – DXLink™ Twisted Pair 4K Transmitters/Receivers
COMPATIBILITY NOTE:
DXLink Twisted Pair 4K Transmitters and Receivers are compatible with other DXLink Twisted Pair 4K
products (see the Compatible AMX Products listed in the table above). Wallplate Transmitters require an approved DXLink power
injector (see table above) when connecting directly to a Receiver. AMX does not support the use of power supplies other than the one
provided or power injectors other than those listed as they may potentially damage DXLink equipment. For compatibility between
DXLink Twisted Pair 4K and DXLink Twisted Pair equipment, see the “DXLink Compatibility Appendix” on page 89.
