Quickstart Guide

WyreStorm 10 x 1 HDBaset Presentation Switcher 

with Mic Control and CEC

SW-1001-HDBT

Attention: Open out for installation diagram.

Before Installation

• 

Check compatibility of source/display devices and device 

settings prior to connection and operation

• 

Make sure of firm cable connection to devices but do not force 

connectors into ports

• 

Always use good quality, high speed Category 2 HDMI cables 

within the transmission distance specification for devices used 

– we recommend WyreStorm Express HDMI cables

• 

Although WyreStorm products are tested with Cat5e, we 

recommend Cat6 as standard due to increased bandwidth and 

improved capacity for handling large transmissions and power 

along a single cable.

• 

This unit will auto-scale output according to EDID settings of 

connected sync device. See full manual for details on how to 

manually override this function. 

Set-up

At source location, connect VGA (with corresponding audio input) 
HDMI, HDBaseT and DisplayPort devices as required, either directly 
to the rear of the SW-1001-HDBT or via a desk plate, ensuring firm 
port connection using good quality cables.

NOTE: VGA audio inputs are embedded and passed with 

transmissions. 

If using an external microphone, connect to MIC input 1 or 2 and 
adjust the input level (MIC GAIN) on the front of the unit – microphone 
inputs are embedded independently over the selected video source.

Ensure the Phantom Power setting is turned ON if using a 
microphone requiring 48V power and OFF If using a dynamic 
microphone. 

A source in a remote location up to 100m/328ft* from the SW-
1001-HDBT can be distributed and powered using HDBaseT and 
POH technology in conjunction with a compatible WyreStorm PoH 
transmission device to eliminate the need for mains power supply 
at the remote source location.  (See full manual for compatible 
transmission devices)

*Depending on HDBaseT classification used in the transmission 
device - Class A (100m) / Class B (70m)

Connect good quality, well-terminated Cat6 cable between the HDBT 
or UTP OUT port of the transmission device and the HDBT IN port 
of the SW-1001-HDBT and connect IR/RS232 to a control system if 
used.
 

NOTE: Control of display device (projector/screen) from the 

remote location is achieved by sending embedded commands 

from the HDBaseT transmitter through SW-1001-HDBT and 

passed along the HDBaseT link to the receiver at the display 

location.  

Output connection is via mirrored HDBaseT and HDMI, with HDMI 
connection to a local display device up to 15m using High Speed 
Category 2 HDMI cables from a quality brand such as WyreStorm 
Express. 

For HDBaseT output, connect another well terminated Cat6 cable of 
no more than 100m/328ft from the HDBT OUT of SW-1001-HDBT 
to the HDBT IN of a compatible PoH-enabled WyreStorm receiving 
device at display location (See wyrestorm.com for compatible 
receiving devices.) 

A PoH-enabled receiver or compatible display device can be 
remotely powered by the SW-1001-HDBT so no power outlet is 
required at the receiver location.

NOTE:  Optional power connectivity is available on both 

transmission and receiving devices if required, for example if a 

cable is too weak to carry power.

Any HDBaseT transmitter or receiver can be used but support of 
features (such as PoH, serial control, Ethernet etc.) is dependent 
on model.  Check the specification of the TX or RX device before 
installation.

Connect to a control system via RS232 or LAN as required, ensuring 
RS232 connections are in place at source and display locations.

Connect a network cable from a router or Ethernet switch to the 
LAN 1 port to add Ethernet to the HDBaseT transmission. Connect a 
cable also to LAN 2 if controlling via a LAN enabled control system.

Audio breakout is offered as a fixed line-out or variable pre-out for 
connection to power amplifiers with no in-built volume control.

Control of this function is via Web UI or command protocol for the 
switch. See full manual for details

To reset IP address or auto-scaling functionality for any reason, press 
to reset to default settings. 

NOTE: This action cannot be undone so would require set up 

to be repeated.

Connect power cable included and switch on the power at the rear of 
the unit – a lit red power LED on the front panel will indicate the unit 
is powered.
