Product Overview
DESCRIPTION
The TPT101 Twisted Pair A/V Transmitter and TPR101 Twisted Pair A/V Receiver combine to make a
system for sending high-resolution VGA video signals and stereo audio signals up to 500 feet using
Category 5 unshielded twisted pair (UTP) cable. The TPT101 offers an unobtrusive, low-profile design
that allows installers to mount the unit in a wall, on a podium or in custom boardroom / presentation
furniture using a standard 1-gang junction box. In addition, the TPT101 / TPR101 twisted pair video /
audio transmission system lets A/V system designers and installers take advantage of the compact size,
flexibility, and extremely low cost of CAT5 UTP cable.
PRODUCT FEATURES
•
Accepts High-Resolution Video Signals - at virtually any resolution or refresh rate. The
TPT101 is compatible with analog video signals including VGA, SVGA XGA, SXGA,
UXGA, MAC, SUN, SGI and other high-resolution workstations. The TPT101 can also be
used to carry three separate composite video signals, one composite video and one Y/C video
signal, or one component video signal.
•
One or Two Cable Operation - The TPT101 transmitter and TPR101 receiver are linked
with one or two CAT5 cables depending on desired signal and power configuration:
Single Cable: Video and remote power, or
Video and mono audio (local power supply required)
Double Cable: Video, remote power and stereo audio
•
Remote Power - TPT101 Transmitter receives power directly from the TPR101 Receiver
when the units are linked with CAT5 cable(s) (no local power supply required).
•
Audio Buffering Circuitry - accepts unbalanced stereo audio signals and converts them to
balanced audio.
•
Auto Power - TPT101 automatically powers up when an input cable is connected, and
powers down when the cable is removed.
•
Advanced Cable Equalization - with separate low frequency and high frequency
equalization controls provides excellent image with a variety of cable lengths.
•
RGB Skew Controls - Compensate for timing delays found in longer CAT5 cables. These
controls (an Inline exclusive) provide excellent performance with virtually any new or
installed CAT5 cable (specialized media-rated CAT5 cables are not required!)
•
Attractive Design Features - The TPT101 features a beveled faceplate with low-profile
connectors.
•
Available in Two Finishes - TPT101-1 - Black. TPT101-2 - White (PMS Cool Grey 3).
Using special technology that allows high-resolution video and stereo audio transmission over CAT5
cables, the TPT101 / TPR101 system leverages the many advantages of CAT5 cable and provides
A/V systems designers with an economical, space efficient solution for high-resolution video and
audio signal transmission in a variety of applications.
