YOUR
MHUB
This multiroom system with support
for the newest 4K devices with HDCP
2.2 encryption is the perfect addition
to your smart home. Watch any eight
entertainment devices in 4K ULTRA
HD on up to eight HDTVs and send
PoH.
MHUB 4K uses a two methods to de-
liver 4K Ultra HD to your HDTV’s. Six
outputs use a single Cat 5/6 cable to
deliver 4K Ultra HD up to distances
of 40m, the remaining 2 outputs use
a HDMI cable to send 4K Ultra HD up
to 8m.
Discrete IR means you can control
your media device’s as usual, using
your normal set top box remote at
each of the eight TVs.
This manual should contain
everything you need to get the
MHUB 4K (8x6+2) up and running.

SETTING UP IR CONTROL
This will enable IR control to be sent from your display location back to your central hub to enable control of
your IR source devices.
SOURCE CONTROL VIA IR (BACKWARDS IR) FOR OUTPUTS A - F
1. Plug IR transmitter TX into the numbered 3.5mm jack port labelled SOURCE IR (OUT) on the MHUB 4K 4x4
hub . Make sure the number corresponds with the HDMI input the source device is connected to.
2. Place IR transmitter TX bud (small rectangular part) in front of the IR eye of the source (where you would
normally point the remote to control the HDMI source device). Repeat these steps for each source device.
3. Plug IR receiver RX into the 3.5mm jack port labelled IR RX on the display receiver.
4. Place IR receiver at or near the display (position it close to where you would usually point your remote to

TESTING YOUR IR SETUP
TEST BASIC OPERATION
The easiest way to verify your IR setup is to go to your display device connected to output 1 of the central hub.
Use the matrix remote to select source input 1 and then use the remote control for your chosen source 1 to
verify control. Do this for each of the other sources connected to the matrix. If you wish, you can then repeat
the process at each of the display locations you have connected to the system.
FORWARD IR PORTS
MHUB 4K 4x4 has forward IR ports on the rear of the matrix. These allow IR signals to be sent from the central
hub to the individual TV receivers. This feature is for use when integrating with third party control systems. In
normal use these ports are not used or required. For example, a third party smart home system such as Con-
trol4, Crestron, AMX or RTI can send IR commands to control devices at the TV receiver location from the loca-
tion of the central hub.
WORKING WITH IDENTICAL SOURCE DEVICES
MHUB has discrete IR, so it is possible to have two or more identical source devices without IR clashes that re-
sult in the operation of all identical devices. When using two or more identical source devices, please take meas-
ures to avoid IR transmission leaks that could cause the other identical source devices to respond. You can take
measures to shield source devices from the IR being emitted by other source device IR TX emitters by locating

STANDARD WIRING DIAGRAM
This is a typical wiring diagram that shows how we would expect an MHUB 4K (8x6+2) to be cabled. This dia-
gram features eight HDMI source devices (any combination of source devices) being sent to eight rooms. 6 of
the displays are located upto 70m away (40m if 4K is required) with an additional two rooms on a short HDMI
run. All devices are being controlled via backwards IR.

EDID MANAGEMENT
For example, it’s what enables a modern computer to know what kinds of monitors are connected to it.
WHAT IS EDID?
For example, it’s what enables a modern computer to know what kinds of monitors are connected to it.
and audio output type from the matrix instead of the HDTV dictating what the source should output.
displays and devices are combined, ignored and routed.
A good example of when you might like to use this is if you have an AVR in your setup, that AVR would normally
default to stereo audio when connected to multiple displays. However, with EDID management you can force
that AVR to always use multi-channel audio.

OPERATING YOUR SYSTEM
MANUAL OPERATION
You can switch between sources manually by using the buttons on the front of the central hub. Each output has
its own button which cycles through the inputs.
REMOTE OPERATION
The small remote control shown below is included with MHUB. This can
operate the system from directly in front of the matrix, via the IR receiver
window on the front of the matrix and also via the IR RX cables connected to
TV Receivers. There are also 4 additional buttons ALL, EDID, CLEAR and OK.
ALL - This selects all outputs so they can be set to the same input
CLEAR - Will cancel all operations, such as Switching/EDID learning.
