Extron Electronics MTP U R RS - Manual (Page 6)

MTP U R Series • Introduction
The MTP U Rs are a part of the Extron VersaTools ® line of basic
distribution amplifiers, switchers, transmitters, receivers, and
associated video accessories.
The MTP U R models receive signals on an RJ-45 connector
over Extron’s Enhanced Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable, or
over Category (CAT) 5/5e/6/7 shielded twisted pair (STP),
unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair
(FTP) cable.
They are compatible with these transmitters/switchers/DA’s:
• All MTP low resolution products when used in mono
audio mode
• MTP T 15HD A • MTP T 15HD RS • MTP DA
• SW 2/4/6 MTP T 15HDA • MTPX
N The MTP C7 U R RSA SEQ is compatible with other
MTP C7 products and uses CAT 7 cable only.
The receiver outputs the RGBHV and RGBS video on the 15-pin
HD connector, Y, R-Y, and B-Y signals and composite on BNC
connectors, and S-video on the 4-pin mini DIN connector. Units
without the component BNC connectors can output component
video on the 15-pin HD connector.
N
The video auto detection feature is sensitive to video
signals with high levels and/or over peaked signals,
which may result in video detection issues.
RS-232 (serial) communications and audio signals are passed
on 5-pole captive screw connectors.
RS-232 communication is bidirectional (default); the receiver is
able to receive commands from the transmitter and pass RS-232
responses back to the transmitter. It also supports flow control
(XON, XOFF).
N
Hardware flow control is not supported.
RS-232 supports full duplex and half duplex operation, and
supports any baud rate up to 38,400 bps (up to 600 feet), data
bits (5-8), parity (odd, even, or none), stop bits (1 or 2), and data
format without configuration.
N
Higher rates are possible, but performance will vary as a
function of baud rate and cable length.
The two SEQ receivers also correct the skew delay
(misconvergence) commonly encountered when using CAT 5,
CAT 5e, CAT 6, or CAT 7 cables for RGB and component video.
N
An SEQ receiver should not be necessary when Extron
Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable is used.
