Introduction
The Extron VTT001 Twisted Pair (TP) Transmitter Series and VTR001 Twisted Pair Receiver
Series provide a system for sending VGA, RGBHV, ansd RGBS signals up to 500 feet
(150 meters) over Extron Skew-Free AV UTP cable. They can also send these signals over
CAT 5/5e/6 shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded
twisted pair (FTP) cable.
Both transmitter and receiver have remote power capability. For transmission distances up
to 300 feet, the applied power is required at either the transmitter or the receiver. Greater
distances require power to be applied locally to both transmitter and receiver.
Depending on the model, both transmitter and receiver modules may be mounted in a
wall, a rack, or in other Extron products that accept a double-sized MAAP panel (such as
CPM101, CPM200, and CPM112R), or Extron AAP mounting products; or they may be set
on a tabletop. The MAAP model comes in a black finish; the AAP model comes in a white
finish; and the tabletop model comes in a black finish.
The following table specifies the maximum recommended transmission distances for the
VTT001/VTR001 pair with a signal at 60 Hz.
Video Resolution Recommended
Maximum Range
640 x 480 500 feet
800 x 600 400 feet
1024 x 768* 300 feet
1280 x 960* 200 feet
1280 x 1024* 200 feet
1360 x 765 200 feet
1365 x 768 200 feet
1366 x 768 200 feet
1440 x 900 200 feet
1440 x 1050 200 feet
1600 x 1200* 150 feet
NOTE: Video resolutions marked with an asterisk (*)
have the same range specification at 75 Hz.
NOTES: • Extron recommends using at least 50 feet of TP cable between the transmitter
and the receiver.
• It is possible to exceed the recommended distances. However, image quality
may be reduced.
