3 Overview

The TP-210 XGA Line Transmitter is a high-performance distribution
amplifier for computer graphics video signals with resolutions ranging from
VGA through UXGA and higher. It takes one input and provides 10 twisted
pair outputs plus two computer graphics video outputs on 15-pin HD
connectors for local monitoring.

The TP-210 XGA Line Transmitter features:

• HDTV compatibility
• Maximum resolution - WUXGA and 1080p
• Two XGA outputs for local monitoring
• 10 CAT 5 outputs for simultaneous signal transmission to 10 locations,

each with a transmission range of more than 300 feet (more than 100
meters

)

• H and V SYNC switches for changing the polarity of the signal

Power Connect Feature

The Power Connect feature applies as long as the cable can carry power.
This feature is available when using STP cable and the distance does not
exceed 50m on standard CAT 5 cable. For longer distances, heavy gauge
cable should be used

.

For units which are connected via RJ-45 connectors,

make sure that the shield of the STP cable is connected to the metal casing
of the connectors on both ends of the cable. For units which are connected
via terminal block connectors, the shield of the STP cable must be
connected to a ground terminal on the units at both ends (use the ground
terminal of the power supply connection if necessary).

For a CAT 5 cable exceeding a distance of 50m, separate power supplies
should be connected to the transmitter and to the receiver simultaneously.

Each output on the TP-210 can supply up to 500mA/12V, but no more than
2.5A in total (for all the outputs). Before using this feature, be sure that the
TP-210 is capable of providing the current requirements of the CAT 5
receivers.




1 If the receiver is connected at a distance of over 50 meters, you need to connect a separate power supply for that receiver

2 CAT 5 cable is still suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding the power at these distances
