Electrical Connections
The sections below describe all possible electrical connections of a hybrid router. Please note that the
different connectors.
Power Connections
Mains Power
Certain frames have redundant power supplies. Every PSU has its own standard IEC
power connector and works with 100 to 240 Volts AC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz power source. See
the Powering on section for more information. #power #redundancy

DC IN Connector for TPS Boards
A 2-pole Phoenix connector is used for 12V DC input for TP and TPS boards and
TP or TPS extenders remotely.
WARNING! Use only power adaptors taken from Lightware. Warranty void if
damage occurs due to use of a different power source.

Video Inputs and Outputs
DVI Inputs and Outputs
29 pole DVI-I connectors, however, internally connected pins vary by input board
type. This way, users can plug in any DVI connector, but keep in mind that analog
signals (such as VGA or RGBHV) are processed only on certain boards.
INFO: Always use high quality DVI cables for connecting sources and displays.
DVI Outputs
29 pole DVI-I connectors for outputs only have digital pins internally connected. This way, users can plug
in any DVI connector, but keep in mind that analog signals (such as VGA or RGBHV) are NOT available on
outputs.
Fiber Cable Powering
DVI outputs are able to supply 500 mA current on DDC +5V output (pin 14 on output connectors) which is
INFO: The matrix router does not check if the connected sink (monitor, projector or other equipment)
supports Hotplug or EDID signals, but outputs the selected signal immediately after switch command.
Boards with HDMI ports provide standard 19-pole HDMI connectors for inputs and
outputs. Always use high quality HDMI cables for connecting sources and displays.
Audio Inputs and Outputs
S/PDIF Digital Audio Input and Output
Certain interface boards have standard RCA receptacles for digital coaxial audio inputs and outputs.
ATTENTION! Plugs and sockets on consumer equipment are conventionally color-coded by
Analog Stereo Audio Input and Output
Certain interface boards have standard RCA receptacles for analog stereo audio inputs and
outputs. Inputs and outputs work with standard line-in and line-out voltage levels.
ATTENTION! Plugs and sockets on consumer equipment are conventionally color-coded
colored RCA connectors for the right channel of analog stereo audio signals and white colored RCA
connectors for the left channel of analog stereo audio signals.
