Tripp Lite B126-4X4 4x4 Hdmi Over Cat5 Cat6 Matrix Switch

Product Description

The TRIPP LITE B126-4X4 is a 4x4 HDMI matrix switch designed to distribute HDMI video signals over Cat5 or Cat6 structured cabling. It accepts four HDMI source inputs and routes them independently to four remote receiver outputs, allowing any source to appear on any display. The unit is built for installations where running individual HDMI cables is impractical, leveraging existing Cat5 or Cat6 infrastructure to extend signals across greater distances. AV integrators, low-voltage technicians, and commercial electricians typically specify this device in multi-display environments.

The B126-4X4 is suited for commercial and institutional installations including conference rooms, digital signage arrays, classrooms, and control rooms. It allows flexible signal routing without requiring a dedicated HDMI run from each source to each display. Any of the four connected sources can be switched to any output zone independently, making it a practical choice for environments that require dynamic content routing across multiple screens.

Key Features

• 4x4 matrix configuration supports four HDMI sources and four independent output zones
• Signal transmission over Cat5 or Cat6 cabling reduces installation complexity
• Independent routing allows any source to display on any output simultaneously
• Eliminates long dedicated HDMI cable runs by leveraging structured cabling infrastructure
• Designed for commercial multi-display environments including signage and conference applications

Compatibility

Designed as an OEM-style replacement or upgrade component for commercial HDMI matrix distribution systems utilizing Cat5 or Cat6 cabling infrastructure.

Installation Notes

Installation is typically performed by a licensed low-voltage technician or AV integrator. Power down all connected source devices and displays before making signal connections. Cat5e or Cat6 cabling should be terminated to T568B standard and tested for continuity prior to connecting receivers. Follow applicable local low-voltage wiring codes and manufacturer guidance for maximum cable run lengths.
