WolfPack 40x80 HDMI Matrix Switch Configuration Example:
- 1 - 80-card in and 80 out card cage
- 10 - 4-port HDMI input cards = 40 - HDMI inputs
- 20 - 4-port HDMI output cards = 80 - HDMI outputs
By having 4-port slide in cards the matrix is exceptionally 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 in for repair.

Control
When one is designing an HDMI Matrix Switch the most important initial specification is the number of inputs and outputs you will need in your facility. The next, and often forgotten, is how the user wants to control those inputs and outputs. HDTV Supply has your back when you're buying one of our WolfPack Family of Modular Matrix Switchers as we have dozens of way to control the inputs and outputs and are shown at Controlling WolfPack Modular Matrix Systems, as well as below:- Remote Keypad for WolfPack Matrix Systems

DirecTV Controller
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
- Creston
- RTI
- DTVGameControl
- Elan g!
- Media Switcher
- OnControls
- Savant
- SimpleControl
- SwitchItUp
- SAVI Control
- URC Control
...and we have created a simple and extremely 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 8x1&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 User's Manual has and will work to control the matrix directly.

What is the WolfPack 4K 30 Hz Modular HDMI Matrix Switcher and how is it customized?
A: The WolfPack 4K 30 Hz Modular HDMI Matrix Switcher Chassis is an integrated HDMI video and HDMI audio modular router with a highly configurable backplane. It allows various technologies to be converted and switched without needing external converters, routing any input to any output, all outputs, or any combination.
Users can customize the setup using slide-in 4-port input and output cards, with chassis sizes scaling from 8x8 up to 80x80 (supporting up to 80 inputs and 80 outputs).
What types of input and output cards are supported, and how does card-based modularity benefit maintenance?
A: The chassis supports 4-port input and output cards for standard HDMI, SDI, and HDBaseT extenders (supporting 4K 30 Hz distances up to 220 or 330 feet over CAT6/7 with Power Over Cable). It also features specialized cards like the HDMI Quad-View card, which displays four pictures on a single screen.
Because it uses 4-port slide-in cards, the switcher is exceptionally reliable; if a signal loss occurs, you only need to replace the specific card with a spare rather than sending the entire matrix in for repair.
How far can video signals travel over HDMI and Ethernet cables?
A: When using standard HDMI 2.0 high-speed cables (AWG24), the matrix supports input cable distances up to approximately 25 feet and output cable distances up to approximately 50 feet.
For longer installations, using the supported HDBaseT transmitter and receiver cards allows signal distribution up to 220 feet or 330 feet over a single CAT6/7 Ethernet cable at 4K 30 Hz with Power Over Cable (POC).
What control options and automation integrations are available for the WolfPack Matrix Switcher?
A: The matrix offers a dual control system that can be managed locally or remotely. Controls include iOS and Android apps, an iPad, a built-in WEB GUI (via LAN/web server), an RS-232 serial interface for automation systems, front-panel push buttons with an LCD status display, and an IR remote control.
Optional 2-way drivers are available for integration with Crestron, RTI, Elan, and Control4 automation systems.
What key features set these WolfPack switchers apart from other matrix switchers?
A: Key features that differentiate these switchers include fast 100ms switching with zero latency, built-in Video Wall processing, resolution scaling on all output cards, and separate audio management on all cards.
Additionally, the system supports advanced EDID management, hot-pluggable card swapping while operating, and the ability to save and recall up to 40 preset scenes.
What warranty, support, and promotional offers come with the purchase of this switcher?
A: Every unit comes with a 2-Year WolfPackCare Advance Replace Warranty along with free lifetime technical support provided via telephone, chat, text, and email.
Commercial accounts (such as sports bars) can also receive a free media player—either a LOOP TV player and/or an Atmosphere-TV Video Player—to display ads and videos, though this promotion is not available for home use.
