About the MTP Transmitters
The Extron MTP T 15HD A Architectural Twisted Pair
Transmitters (available in either black or white) are a series of
wall, Architectural Adapter Plate (AAP) or furniture mounting
products that are based on the MTP T 15HD A Twisted Pair
Transmitter.
The Extron MTP T 15HD A architectural transmitters accept high
resolution computer-video on a female 15-pin HD connector
and a stereo audio signal on a female 3.5 mm mini stereo jack.
The female RJ-45 output connector, mounted on a 3 inch pigtail,
transmits a computer video and summed mono audio signal to
an MTP R 15HD A, MTP RL 15HD A, or MTP RL 15HD A SEQ
receiver. A pre-peaking control switch boosts the transmission
distance of the proprietary signal.
The MTP T 15HD A architectural series is part of a system for
long-distance distribution of VGA or other high resolution
video and audio, over Extron Enhanced Skew-Free ™ A/V
UTP Cable, or any CAT 5, 5e, or 6 shielded twisted pair (STP),
unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair
(FTP) cable.
TP cable advantages
Twisted pair cable is smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less
expensive than coaxial cable. Termination of the cable with
RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical. See
" TP Cable Termination " on page 12 for wiring details.
Transmission distance
The maximum distance is determined by the frequency and
resolution of the signal that is input to the transmitter.
Refer to the table on page 2 for the recommended maximum
transmission distances and transmitter Pre-Peak switch
positions using Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable or
UTP CAT 5 cable, terminated with CAT 5 rated connectors.
