Introduction
Lightware’s MMX6x2-HT family responds to a need of a practical standalone matrix switcher
specically designed for meeting room and classroom environments. The agship of the
series is the MMX6x2-HT220 matrix with 6 video inputs and 4 video outputs. The unit handles
4K video formats and 3D signals while it’s fully HDCP compliant. The device has 4 audio input
connectors for audio insertion and 2 audio outputs for de-embedding purposes.

TPS matrix concept
MMX6x2-HT is the rst stand-alone matrix switcher with HDBaseT
TM
(TPS) technology
in Lightware’s product range. The matrix gives the possibility to route many kinds of signal
formats including TPS and other available interfaces.
TPS working modes
The following TPS modes are dened in the matrix:
Auto: The TPS mode is determined automatically.
HDBaseT: Ideal for high resolution signals up to 4K, maximum 100 m cable length.
Long reach: Ideal for big distances up to 1080p@60Hz.
LPPF1*: Only RS-232 signal is transmitted (at 9600 baud).
LPPF2*: Only RS-232 (at 9600 baud) and Ethernet signal are transmitted.
* LPPF: Low Power Partial Functionality

Mounting options
M4x8 size is the longest allowed screw for xing the ears to the housing. Longer
screw may touch internal parts.
Mounting as a standard rack installation - with front rack ears
Two rack ears are supplied with the product, which
are xed on left and right side as shown in the picture.
The default position allows mounting the device as a
standard rack unit installation.
Under-desk mounting - with front and rack ears
Two rack ears supplied with the product; the other
two rack ears can be purchased separately.
Please do the following steps:
1. Release and remove the xing screws of both
rack ears on the matrix.
2. Rotate the rack ears by 90° to the desired
direction.
3. Insert the screws into the holes and x the front ears to the matrix.
4. Fix the two other rear ears (not supplied with the product) by the screws on both sides.
5. Fix the matrix by the rack ears to the desired surface (screws not supplied).
6
USB control USB connector for local control functions (e.g. Lightware
Device Controller software).
7
Display 2x16 character LCD display for menu operations.
8
Menu navigation Up, down, left, right, enter and escape buttons.

voltage indicators for internal DC power voltages.
8
Audio input ports 5-pole Phoenix connector for balanced analog audio input.
9

ports
Connect an HDMI cable between the sink and the matrix.
HDMI and TPS output ports are mirrored: the same Audio /
Video content is switched on the given two ports.
Compatible devices
The matrix is compatible with other Lightware TPS devices, matrix boards, third-party
HDBaseT-extenders, displays, but not compatible with the TPS-90 extenders.
Remote powering (PoE)
The matrix is PoE-compatible (in accordance with IEEE 802.3af standard) and able to send
remote power to connected TPS devices via the TPS connection (through the CATx cable).
No local power adaptor is required for the connected PoE-compatible TPS extender. The PoE
feature is enabled on TPS ports as factory default.
The remote power feature of TPS-95 extenders is not PoE-compatible. Thus, TPS-95
series cannot be powered remotely by the MMX6x2 matrices. If an RX95 or TX95 is
connected to the matrix, make sure that the remote power jumper of the extender is
removed or set to 'Remote power disabled' position.
Powering on
Connect the power cord to the AC input connector. Switch on the matrix by the power switch
on the rear panel. During the initial self-test and loading of the latest settings Booting…
appears on the LCD screen. After the self-test, the router reloads its last conguration and it
is ready to use. In case of hardware failure, an error message is displayed.
After switching ON, the router reloads the latest settings that were used before it was
turned off. The router has an internal emergency memory that stores all current settings and
ties congurations. This memory is independent from presets and invisible for the user. This
built-in feature helps the system to be ready immediately in case of power failure or accidental
power down.
The front panel of the three models look the same.
MMX6x2-HT200 does not contain TPS output port. MMX6x2-HT210 contains only one
TPS output port.
Mounting - with Mounting bracket V2
Two pieces of Mounting bracket V2 is necessary
which can be purchased separately.
Please do the following steps:
1. Prepare the desk and cut the necessary hole in
the furniture. The frame size is 442 x 43.9 mm
without rack ears.
2. Remove the rack ears and the xing screws
from both sides of the matrix.
3. Insert the screws into the holes and x the mounting bracket to the matrix. Pay attention
to the thickness of the desk and let enough space to the front when xing the brackets.
4. Insert the matrix in the hole and x the bracket by the screws to the furniture.
Ventilation
To ensure the correct ventilation and avoid overheating let enough free space
around the appliance. Do not cover the appliance, let the ventilation holes free on both
sides.
