Introduction
The UltraAV HDMI Distribution Amplifier (Splitter) accepts a signal from
a single HDMI enabled audio/video source and splits the single input
into 4 (1x4 Splitter) or into 8 (1x8 Splitter) HDMI outputs. The audio/
video signal is mirrored on up to 4 (1x4 Splitter) or 8 (1x8 Splitter) HDMI
displays, monitors, projectors or TV’s.
Over-Current and Over-Voltage Protection
The circuit boards are equipped with both over-current and over-voltage
protection and will automatically power down if encountered. The circuit
boards will restore automatically once the excessive current or voltage
has passed.

Cascading
The HDMI splitter can be cascaded (layered) to expand the number of
supported displays.
K078C-006B (1x4 Splitter) - Supports up to 3 layers.
K078C-007B (1x8 Splitter) - Features a Silicon Image chipset supporting
up to 6 layers.
To create a 2 layer cascade, two same distribution amplifiers must be
used. Run an HDMI cable from an output on unit #1 to the input of unit
#2. A 2 layer cascade of the 1x4 splitter will support up to 7 outputs. A 2
layer 1x8 splitter cascade will support up to 15 outputs.
Setup
With the splitter power switch in the OFF position, connect an HDMI High
Speed cable from the HDMI Output on the audio/video source to the
HDMI Input 1 on the back of the splitter.
Tips: Use the shortest length HDMI cables possible in each point
in the installation. Use only High Quality and High Speed HDMI
cables.
Next, connect an HDMI cable to the HDMI Output P
ort 1 on the splitter
and then connect the other end to an HDMI Input Port on the display
device. Similarly,
using HDMI cables, connect the remaining HDMI Output
Ports on the rear of the splitter to the HDMI Input ports of the other
displays.
Connect the power adapter to the splitter. Plug the power adapter into a
surge protected AC power outlet. T
urn ON the video source, and turn ON
the displays. Turn the splitter’
s power switch to the ON position
.
