Receiver Considerations

The receivers’ buffered outputs do not provide pre-peaking control. The total
recommended distance for an entire daisy chain is the same as for a single
transmitter and receiver. The transmitter’s Pre-Peak switch has the same affect on the
recommended transmission distance for a daisy chain as for a single transmitter and
receiver.

See the recommended transmission ranges in

Table 1

. The recommendations in the

table apply equally for the switcher and one receiver and for a transmission daisy
chain. For example, the maximum suggested range for high quality transmission of
1024 x 768 video is 600 feet between either the switcher and one receiver or the
switcher and three daisy-chained receivers.

For daisy-chained units, the first receiver in the chain must be at least 100 feet from
the switcher when the Pre-Peak switch is on.

For daisy-chained units, any receiver in the chain closer than 350 feet may experience
some form of over-peaking when the Pre-Peak switch is on.

If a receiver is the last receiver in a daisy chain, its end unit DIP switch setting needs
to be changed. Refer to the MTP 15HD RS Series User’s Manual that applies to your
receiver or details.
