CAUTIONS: • Use electrostatic discharge (ESD) precautions (be electrically grounded) when

making connections. Electrostatic discharge can damage equipment, even if you
cannot feel, see, or hear it.

• Remove system power before making all connections.

Signal Inputs

a

Inputs (TP) connectors — Connect the TP outputs of compatible MTP or VTT
transmitters to these RJ-45 female connectors.

CAUTION: Do not connect this device to a computer data or telecommunications

network.

NOTES: • Configure the switcher for the appropriate content on the audio/RS-232

wire pair (pins 3 and 6) for each TP input (see “

Defining the Audio/

RS-232 Wire Pair

“ on page 55). You can also use SIS commands (see

the “

Programming Guide

” section, page 73) or the Matrix Switchers

Control Program (see the “

Matrix Software

“ section, page 105).

• For best results, use a minimum cable length of at least 25 feet (7.5 m)

between the transmitter and the MTPX input.

• RJ-45 termination with CAT 5, CAT 5e, or CAT 6 cable must comply with

the TIA/EIA T568A or TIA/EIA T568B wiring standards for all connections.
RJ-45 termination with Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable must comply
with TIA/EIA T568A only.

• For low resolution MTPs (S-video and composite video) on the TP

inputs, the MTPX Plus audio circuits are compatible only with the newer
generation, mono audio models. See your MTP transmitter/ receiver and
refer to the associated manual to determine which MTP models you have.

Figure 4 shows the recommended termination of TP cables. . You can use either the
TIA/EIA T568A or TIA/EIA T568B wiring standard with CAT 5, 5e, or 6 cable, but use the
same standard on both ends of the cable.
