TP Cable Advantages

Twisted pair (TP) cable is much smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial
cable. These TP products make cable runs simpler and less cumbersome. Termination of the
cable with RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical.

Transmission Distance

Extron suggests a minimum transmission distance of at least 50 feet. The maximum
transmission distance when using Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable or UTP CAT 5 cable,
terminated with CAT 5 rated connectors, is 1000 feet.

NOTES:

It is possible to exceed the recommended distance, however, image quality

may be reduced.

The transmitters and receivers are designed for and perform best with Extron
Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable. CAT 5 cables are acceptable, but are less
preferable. We also recommend the use of preterminated and tested cables
when possible. Cables terminated on site should be tested before use to
ensure that they comply with Category 5 specifications.

The video portion of any S-video transmitter output is compatible with any
S-video receiver in the MTP family described in this manual if the transmitter
and receiver jumper configuration are compatible.

The video portion of any composite video transmitter output is compatible
with any composite video receiver in the MTP family described in this guide if
the transmitter and receiver jumper configuration are compatible.

The audio portion of any transmitter output (whether it is equipped with either
captive screw or RCA input connectors) is compatible with any audio receiver
in the MTP family described in this manual if the transmitter and receiver
jumper configuration are compatible.
