HDMI Wall plate 4K HDBase-T extender 18G is a wall plate transmitter and a receiver. The extender is designed to transmit HDMI (1080P, 4K@60Hz 4:2:0), RS232 and USB signal up to 328ft/100m away by using a signal CATx cable.
The wall plate transmitter features two HDMI inputs, and one of them can be selected as the input source by the SOURCE/AUTO button on the front panel. It also features Type-B USB port to connect a PC or other device which needs to be controlled by the far-end HID devices (e.g. mouse, keypad and so on), which are connected to the Type-A USB input ports of receiver. The transmitter supports CEC: the DISPLAY ON/OFF button on the front panel is used to control the far-end display device, and it can be programmed by RS232 command to ensure the compatibility with various display devices. Moreover, 24V POC allows the transmitter can be powered from the receiver, and the transmitter has 12V DC output for powering other device.

Connection diagram
The following diagram illustrates typical input and output connection that can be utilized with the extender.
Button Control
Signal Switching
- Press the SOURCE SELECT button to switch to next source device, and then the corresponding input LED will turn green.
- Press and hold the SOURCE SELECT button at least 3 seconds to enable auto switching mode, and it abides by the following principles:
- New input
Once a new input signal detected, the transmitter will automatically switch to this new signal.
- Signal removing
Once removing the current display signal, the transmitter will automatically switch to another active HDMI input.
- Rebooting device
The transmitter can save the last configuration before losing power. If the last switching mode is auto-switching, the transmitter will automatically enter auto switching mode once rebooted, then detect all inputs and memorize their connection status for future rebooting using. If the last selected input source is still available, the transmitter will switch to this input. Otherwise, it will switch to the first available active input source starting at HDMI IN 1.
- Exit auto-switching mode
The input source would remain the same when press and hold the SOURCE SELECT button again to exit the auto mode.
