Zone Receiver (RX) Overview:
A Zone Rx unit is positioned close to your display device and connected to the Octava
Matrix with a Twisted Pair (CAT6) cable.
An Octava compatible Zone receiver must be used with the HD4xSTPMX Matrix.
Compatible Zone Receiver: HD70STP-RX
The HD70STP-RX Zone Receiver uses Power over Ethernet, PoE and is directly
powered by the HD4xSTPMX over the CAT6 cable.
Item Description
ZR-1 CAT6 In Connect to HD4xSTPMX with CAT6
ZR-2 HDMI Out to display Connect to HDTV using High Speed HDMI
cable
ZR-3 Power /Data Indicator indicates Zone Receiver is receiving power and
linked with the matrix unit.
ZR-4 IR RX (receive)
connect Octava supplied IR Receiver cable.
ZR-5 IR TX (transmit)
Optional. Connect with an Octava IR emitter, if
IR control of TV is needed. For example, your
control system controls your display using I.R.
ZR-6 RS-232 Optional. Connect with a RS-232 cable if you
need to control your display using RS-232.

Infrared Overview:
IR can be routed from any of the 8 connected Zones back to control:
1) the Matrix and 2) the connected Source devices. The Matrix also
allows IR Routing + IR Broadcast for maximum utility.
Routed IR: The IR Out 1-4 are "routed" for optimum IR control.
For example, If Zone H is switched to HDMI Input 4. IR Commands
from Zone H will only be sent to control Input 4 and not affect other
input sources.
IR Broadcast : The IR Broadcast port routes All IR received to the IR
Broadcast port.

or directly in front of matrix
Pressing Standby/OFF remote button has 2 results depending
on if the receiving device is:
1) Front Panel of Matrix or
2) Zone Receiver.

Ethernet cable recommendations:
Using Shielded CAT6 (STP, 24AWG or better) cable will ensure
maximum signal integrity plus optimum rejection of external interference.
Note 2- Unshielded CAT5e and CAT6 cables can be used with your
Octava system though they may result in limiting the maximum
attainable distance depending on quality of cable.
Cable Type Note
1 Shielded(STP) CAT6 cable is
recommended. 24 AWG or better Recommended
2 UTP CAT5e/CAT 6 cable Acceptable. Note 2
Use EIA/TIA-568-B standard when terminating your LAN cables.
Ethernet cable installation recommendations:
Use your cable suppliers recommended RJ-45 connector/crimp tool
with your CAT5, CAT6 cables and ensure you pay particular attention
to the quality of the termination on all cables.
DO / Recommend
Use shielded CAT6a with good RJ-45 terminators
Use a direct cable connection between the Matrix and
Receiver unit.
DO NOT
Do Not connect thru Ethernet switches or routers
For optimum signal integrity avoid passing your signals
though any form of Patch-panel, wall-plate or punch-down
terminations
Do Not connect cables thru extraneous RJ-45 couplers,
wall plates.
Do Not tightly coil /loop the Ethernet cables
