WolfPack 1-Port 4K60 HDR HDMI Input Card with 3.5mm Audio Out
The WolfPack 1-Port 4K60 HDR HDMI Input Card is a single-port input module that adds one 4K60 HDR HDMI source input to a WolfPack modular matrix chassis. It drops into the card cage of the 9x9, 16x16, 18x18, and 36x36 modular matrix switchers, giving you one more source input without external hardware. A 4-pin DIP switch provides on-card EDID management, and a built-in 3.5mm jack de-embeds the source's stereo audio.
By selecting an EDID profile on the DIP switch, you tell the connected source exactly what the system can accept — from 1080p and DVI modes up to 4K60 4:4:4 — which heads off handshake and compatibility problems before the signal reaches the matrix. The card is powered internally by the matrix and draws just 3W, so there is no extra power supply to install.
Why Choose This Input Card?
- On-card EDID management. Force the source to a known-good resolution and format using the DIP switch — no external EDID minder required.
- Audio de-embed out. Break out 2-channel PCM audio from the 3.5mm jack for a local amplifier or sound system.
- 4K60 with HDR. Full HDMI 2.0 4K60 input with HDR, HDCP 2.2/2.3, and EDID handling.
- Drop-in modular. Adds one source input to your existing WolfPack chassis.
- Powered by the matrix. Internal power, just 3W — nothing else to plug in.

Common Applications
Expanding input capacity on a WolfPack modular matrix, forcing a source to a compatible EDID and resolution to avoid handshake issues, breaking out source audio to a local amplifier or sound bar, and any install where reliable source compatibility matters ahead of the matrix.
Frequently Asked Questions
Which chassis does this input card work with?
It works with the WolfPack 9x9, 16x16, 18x18, and 36x36 modular card-cage matrix chassis. Each card adds one HDMI source input.
Does it support 4K60 and HDR?
Yes. The card accepts HDMI 2.0 4K60 video with HDR and supports HDCP 2.2 and 2.3.
What does the DIP switch do?
It manages EDID. The 4-pin DIP switch selects which EDID profile the card presents to the source, forcing the source to output a chosen resolution and format — from Bypass and DVI modes through 1080p up to 4K60 4:4:4.
Can I get audio out of this card?
Yes. The 3.5mm jack de-embeds 2-channel PCM audio from the source, so you can feed a local amplifier or speakers. ARC and Dolby Atmos are not supported.
Does the card need its own power supply?
No. It is powered internally by the matrix and draws only 3W, so there is no separate power supply to install.
What is the latency?
Latency is 15 to 30 milliseconds.
How long an HDMI cable can I run from the source?
It depends on resolution. Using AWG 26 cable, you can run up to 15 m (40 ft) at 1080p, up to 10 m (30 ft) at 4K30, and up to 8 m (20 ft) at 4K60.
