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.
