The GefenToolBox 8x8 Matrix for HDMI
The GefenToolBox 8x8 Matrix for HDMI routes eight Hi-Def sources to any eight HDTV
displays. Resolutions up to 1080p Full HD and 1920x1200 plus 3DTV are supported, along
with multichannel digital audio formats such as Dolby® True HD and DTS-HD® Master
Audio™.
The Matrix eliminates the need to disconnect and reconnect Hi-Def sources. It works
with any HDMI source that needs to be connected to an HDTV display. Each source is
accessible at all times from any display using the front-panel push buttons, IR remote
control, RS-232 interface, or via Telnet protocol.
How It Works
Connect the Hi-Def audio/video sources to the eight HDMI inputs using the supplied HDMI
cables. Connect up to eight HDTV displays to the HDMI outputs. 3D content can be dis-
played when connecting a 3DTV and 3D source. Connect the power supply to the matrix
and plug the power cable into an available electrical outlet. Apply power to the sources and
displays. The Hi-Def sources will be routed according to the current routing selection.
Fast Switching Technology (FST) is a Gefen software implementation for HDMI products.
FST was created to improve the lengthy HDMI authentication process, based on the HDMI
and HDCP specications. FST allows for connecting/disconnecting or turning any of the
HDTV displays on or off without affecting other displays within the audio/video distribution
system.

READ THESE NOTES BEFORE INSTALLING OR
OPERATING THE GEFENTOOLBOX 8X8 MATRIX FOR HDMI
• EDID contains the A/V capabilities of a display device in regards to video resolutions
and audio formats supported. This information is used by the source device to
determine the format of the A/V signal on the outputs. The GefenToolBox 8x8 Matrix
for HDMI incorporates advanced EDID management to ensure compatibility with all
sources and display devices. See pages 25 for more details.
• The GefenToolBox 8x8 Matrix for HDMI can detect the presence of Deep Color (12-
bit signal) automatically and will disable Deep Color EDID features across all other
outputs if any connected device or display is not capable of processing Deep Color.
This automatic behavior ensures compatibility among all output devices in a mixed-
device environment. This feature cannot be disabled.
• When powering the GefenToolBox 8x8 Matrix for HDMI, the Matrix will undergo a
momentary initialization sequence. This is normal operation and may take a few
seconds.
