This manual describes the function, installation, configuration, and operation of the
MTP SW6 twisted pair switcher.
About the MTP SW6 Switcher
The Extron MTP SW6 is a 6-input, 1-output twisted pair switcher that is compatible with the
entire line of Extron MTP transmitters and receivers.
The Extron MTP transmitters and receivers are a system for long-distance distribution of
video and either audio or RS-232 communications. The MTPs transmit and receive over
Extron Enhanced Skew-Free
™
A/V UTP cable or over CAT 5, 5e, or 6 shielded twisted pair
(STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable.
The MTP switcher receives up to six sets of signals from compatible MTP devices on
RJ-45 connectors (figure 1). You can select one input to output to a compatible MTP device
on an RJ-45 connector. The signal sets are comprised of high or low resolution video signals
(RGB, bi-level or tri-level component video, S-video, or composite video) and can also include
either RS-232 serial signals or audio.
