Features

HDTV Supplys WolfPack™ 4K 28x40 HDMI Matrix Switcher Over CAT5 is an integrated HDMI video and HDMI audio modular HDMI matrix switcher. The chassis backplane allows various technologies to be converted and switched eliminating external converters and it allows any input to be routed to any output, or the same input to be routed to all outputs or any combination with 4K/30 HDMI in and 40-HDBaseT Receivers. HDTV Supply, Inc. is an Approved HDBaseT.Org Adopter of HDBaseT™ Products.

The core of the WolfPack 28x40 HDMI Matrix Switcher consists of an 48x48 Modular Matrix chassis (16U) and it's highly configurable backplane that supports 48 - HDMI inputs and 48 - HDMI HDBaseT output cards. It is also 4K/30 compliant. You can control the switch via its IOS or Android app, a 10" Color Touch Screen from the front panel, a WEB GUI control, LAN or the 2-RS-232 serial ports. Our Modular WolfPack Modular Matrix Systems have dual RS232 & LAN ports on the back of the chassis that can be used (1) as a back-up control if one malfunctions and (2) you can use the 2nd-RS232/LAN port to control the Matrix Switcher at the same time as the first. The matrix also has optional Control4 & Elan drivers.

By having 4-port slide in cards the matrix is very reliable as in the unlikely even there is a loss of signal you just replace the card with a spare you have purchased or order another from us. The complete matrix doesn't have to be sent to us for a repair.

Compatibility

These modular HDMI matrix switchers can usually be integrated with many third party control systems using the RS232 port on the back of the matrix.

For experienced AV hardware and software professionals who want to write their own drivers for 3rd party control systems from:

AMX™
Control4™ (Optional)
Creston™
RTI™
DTVGameControl™
Elan g!™ (Optional)
Media Switcher™
OnControls™
Savant™
SimpleControl™
SwitchItUp™
SAVI Control™
URC Control™

...we have created a simple and very easy to use RS232 script to write your own drivers.

EXAMPLE: If you want to switch input 8 to output 1, 8, 16, the RS232 command would be x1&8&16. and notice the command has a period (.) at the end of the string. The matrix even replies "OK" when the right command is received and shows "ERR" when receiving a wrong command. Here is the RS232 User Manual if you want to write your own drivers.

How to use the info:

END USER: If you are an end user and want to have a whole-house control system from any of the above 3rd party control houses but your budget can't support the price you were quoted, do the following:

Call us for a quote
Once you get our quote call a 3rd party control reseller or installer in your area and tell them "Here is the hardware I want to use, please give me a quote on writing the software and installing all of the hardware at my location." You usually can save $1,000s on larger systems.

CAVEAT: We are not certified by any of the above 3rd party control systems companies nor have the necessary hardware to verify, troubleshoot and support the 3rd party writing of the code. We do warranty, though, that the RS232 script in the above RS232 Users Manual has and will work to control the matrix directly.

Packing: Pack and ship

Q: How do the 2-power supplies work with the matrix?
A: For the 2 power supply system on the card cage matrix, it's a redundant system. We can have two power supply system on at the same time (if one's down, it can hop to another, it guarantees the matrix won't shut down). It also can operate with just one power supply on and the other one is for back-up
