Operating Notes
Important
•

When connecting through a Local Area Network, a managed gigabit switch is required.
Jumbo Frame Support (8k or greater) and IGMP Snooping must be enabled.

•

A dedicated LAN is not required but highly recommended.

•

In a Multi-Format system, when using HDCP-encrypted content, only HDMI &
DisplayPort™ inputs & outputs can accept or display content.

•

We recommend that Sender and Receiver are first connected directly and functionality/
performance is fully verified before integrating them into a Local Area Network.

•

Always make sure that all units within a system are running the latest firmware.

•

This product has been specifically designed for use with the Gefen Syner-G™ Software
Suite, available for download at www.gefen.com. The Gefen Syner-G™ Discovery and
Show-Me features simplify initial IP configuration

•

Gefen highly recommends the Gefen EXT-CU-LAN Matrix Controller for setting up and
controlling the operation of an AV-over-IP network using these products. Alternatively,
the Syner-G™ software can be used for IP configuration and firmware updates.

•

Shielded CAT-5e (or better) cables used between the Sender and the Receiver unit or
between each unit and the IP switch, should not exceed 330 feet (100 meters).

•

By default, all Sender and Receiver units are set to channel 0.

•

If terminating network cables in the field, please adhere to the TIA/EIA568B

Installation
The Gen 2.0 AV and KVM over IP Sender and Receiver units can be connected directly or
through a Local Area Network (LAN). Both installations will be covered.

Local Area Network (LAN) Connection
When connecting the Sender and Receiver units to a Local Area Network (LAN), DHCP, static,
or APIPA (Automatic Private IP Addressing) IP modes can be used. DHCP mode will use the
EXT-ADA-LAN-TX
DHCP server to automatically assign an IP address for each Sender and Receiver unit that
is connected to the network. Static IP mode will allow the IP address for each Sender and
Receiver unit to be configured manually. Contact your network administrator if necessary.
APIAP mode assigns a class-B IP address, in the 169.254.x.x range, to the Sender and
Receiver units, if a DHCP server is not available.

Installation
Using a Direct Connection
By default, all Senders and Receivers are shipped in APIPA (Auto) mode. This network mode
is used for directly connecting Sender and Receiver units to one another. APIAP mode assigns
a class-B IP address, in the 169.254.x.x range, to the Sender and Receiver units, if a
DHCP server is not available. When using a direct connection, each unit can remain in Auto
mode and can be assigned a static or DHCP IP address using the Gefen Syner-G sofrware, or
manually

Unicast & Multicast Modes
Configuring Unicast Mode
The term unicast is used to describe a configuration where information is sent from one point
to another point. It is possible to have multiple Sender and Receiver units connected in a
system. However, in unicast mode a Sender unit can communicate with only one Receiver unit
at a time. In unicast mode, the Gefen AV over IP products function similar to an audio switcher.

Note
The Gefen Audio over IP Sender and Receiver units are shipped from the factory in
unicast mode.
The illustration, below, shows 3 Sender units (S1, S2, and S3) and 2 Receiver units
(R1 and R2) on a network, operating in unicast mode. The audio channels are notated
in blue.

Click the Reboot button at the bottom of the page. If the Reboot button is not clicked,
the following message will be displayed, indicating that the unit must be rebooted.

8.

Repeat steps 1 - 7 in order to configure the Sender unit for unicast mode.

Important
When switching between unicast and multicast modes, both Sender and Receiver
units must be set to the same mode.

31

Unicast & Multicast Modes
Switching between Sender units in Unicast mode
When multiple Sender and Receiver unit are used in unicast mode, the Gefen Audio over IP
Sender and Receivers behave as a switcher. In unicast mode, a Sender unit can communicate
with only one Receiver unit at a time.
In the example below, Receiver unit R1 will be switched to receive the source connected to
Sender unit S1. To do this, simply change the audio channel.

In this example, Receiver R1 will continue to receive audio data from Sender S1,
even though Sender S2 is set to the same audio channel. The reason for this is
because Receiver R1 and Sender S1 were already set to the same audio channel
and communicating (as depicted in Figure 2.3). However, this scenario violates the
unicast mode rule: A Sender unit can communicate with only one Receiver unit
at a time.

33

Unicast & Multicast Modes
When using unicast mode, each of the Sender units must be assigned a unique
audio channel and should never be changed. Use the Receiver unit to switch (channels)
between Sender units.

Note
In unicast mode, if an additional Sender unit is introduced into a system with the
same channel as another Sender unit, then the Receiver unit will continue to receive
audio data from the Sender unit which was connected first.

34

Unicast & Multicast Modes
Configuring Multicast Mode
The term multicast is used to describe a configuration where information is sent from one or
more points to a set of other points. For example, a single Sender unit can transmit data to
multiple Receiver units. In addition, if multiple Sender units are used, each Sender unit can
transmit data to any Receiver that is not already receiving data from another Sender unit.
In multicast mode, the Senders and Receivers function similar to a KVM matrix.
The illustration, below, shows 3 Sender units (S1, S2, and S3) and 2 Receiver units
(R1 and R2) on a network, operating in multicast mode. The audio channels are shown
in blue.

Audio Port Priority
When the Line In port on the Sender unit is connected, it takes priority over both digital inputs
(Opt In and Coax In). If Line In is not connected, then the two digital ports have the same
priority. The first digital port that receives a connection will become the active audio input
port. If both digital ports are connected, after the unit is powered-on, then the Opt In port
always has priority and will become the active audio input port.
All three audio ports (Line Out, Opt Out, and Coax Out) output the same audio signal.
