About the TP Receivers
The TP R BNC A, TP R BNC AV, and TP R 15HD A are Extron
Twisted Pair (TP) receivers that receive transmissions of RGB
video, component video, S-video, composite video, and stereo
audio over Extron Enhanced Skew-Free ™ A/V UTP cable or
standard Category (CAT) 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP),
shielded twisted pair (STP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP)
cable. Standard transmission distances are shown in the
following tables. Minimum reliable transmission distance for
the TP R BNC A and TP R BNC AV is 25 feet. The TP R 15HD A
provides reliable reception and high quality video output
without minimum distance limitations.
Maximum distance is determined by the output frequency
and resolution. The following table specifies recommended
maximum transmission distances using Extron Enhanced
Skew-Free A/V UTP cable or UTP CAT 5 cable, terminated with
CAT 6, or at least CAT 5e, rated connectors.
N The TP units are designed for and perform best with
Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable terminated in accordance
with the TIA/EIA T 568 A wiring standard. Cables
terminated on site should be tested before use to ensure
they comply with Category 5/5e/6 specifications.
