Wiring Guidance
mHub 2K PoE systems require a single network cable to be run from each HDTV location, back to a central
location. mHub 2K PoE uses HDBaseT-Pro (Class A) technology to transmit HD video and audio over a single
Cat6 or 7 cable up to a 100 metre distance.
What is the best type of cable to use?
Currently you can use Cat6, Cat6e, Cat6a, Cat7 or Cat7a with HDanywhere products.
The baseline cable standard for HDanywhere systems is Cat 6. Greater distances can be achieved by
using Cat6, or slightly better still with the Cat7, which have thicker copper cores for easier signal transfer.
Whichever network cable type you choose, ensure that the main wiring architecture is 'solid core', not
stranded ‘patch’ cabling. Patch cabling can be used for the last few metres of a run (say from a wallplate) but
should be avoided over the longer runs as signal transfer over stranded cores is heavily reduced.
The use of pre-made leads is not recommended unless you can be absolutely sure of their construction
credentials (i.e. solid core 568B)
DO NOT USE COPPER CLAD ALUMINIUM (CCA) Cat6 or 7 CABLE FOR HDBASET PRODUCTS.
Shielded cables
Unlike other systems, shielded FTP cable is not a stipulation. If however you preferred this type of cable
please ensure compatible shielded accessories are used. Failure to terminate cable screen at all points can
induce interference rather than eliminating it.
Termination best practice
Best practice advice is to always use a straight piece of cable terminated directly at the matrix and the TV
receiver ends.
HDBaseT with patch panels and wall plates
If the patch panels are terminated correctly and well, there is minimal loss of distance with HDBaseT.
The use of wallplates and patch panels always has the potential to cause increased resistance on the cable,
introducing 'pinch points' for signal transmission and could reduce advertised transmission lengths.
TIP - instead of using RJ45 wallplates, use brush plates instead to maintain the neat finish.
Connection termination
Terminate the cabling using RJ45 connectors to the 568B wiring standard (shown overleaf).

Local building regulations may apply to the installation of cabling in properties. Please ensure that
these are checked and followed in accordance with the laws of your territory.

Initial system set-up
Before you connect up your system, please ensure that you complete the following:
●Ensure that any manufacturer HDMI link, HDMI control or CEC protocol settings such as Samsung
Anynet Link, Sony Bravia Link, Panasonic Viera Link etc are switched to “off” on both the source
devices and HDTVs that are to be connected to system. This setting is likely to be found in the
HDMI menu settings of the devices you are using.
●After you have changed the CEC setting, switch off all your HDMI source devices and HDTVs and
unplug them from the mains.
●Please ensure that you only connect and disconnect HDMI cables while the central hub and TV
receivers are powered off.
Steps for connecting up your system
1. Power off all products: all source devices, HDTVs and the mHub 2K PoE.
2. Now connect your HDMI source devices to the desired HDMI input ports on the mHub 2K PoE central
hub; 1, 2, 3 or 4, using appropriate HDMI cabling.For Blu-ray 3D, ‘High Speed’ HDMI cables must be
used (usually under 8m in length). Passive (not Active) HDMI cables over 15m in length are not
recommended under any circumstances.
3. Connect your most commonly watched source device to HDMI input 1. It is recommended that if a
Satellite HD Receiver is being used that this is connected to HDMI input 1.
4. If you wish to send 10/100 Ethernet over the Cat cable, then connect one of the Ethernet output
ports of your broadband router to the LAN input port on the central hub using any network cable.
5. Connect any network or LAN connections between the 10/100 Ethernet ports on the TV receivers
(see page 8) and the chosen network devices. i.e. your TVs Ethernet port for smart TV capability
6. Connect HDMI cables between the TV receivers and your chosen TVs / Displays / Projectors on the
first HDMI port.
7. Now connect the Cat cabling from the corresponding TV Receiver locations to the HDBaseT (RJ45) TV
output ports (1, 2, 3 or 4.) (see page 8).
8. Before turning on your system for the first time, go to pages 11 and 12. Read them carefully and
complete all necessary steps.
Notes:
When placing the TV Receivers at your TV locations, please take care not to block the vents on the TV receiver
casing.
HDanywhere product warranty does not cover damage due to electrical disturbances. If possible safeguard
your equipment by connecting all provided power supplies to an electrical surge suppressor / line
conditioner.
