6.2 Getting to Know the TP-1xl Video Line Transmitter
The Kramer TP-1xl is a high performance composite video to twisted pair transmitter, designed to transmit video
signals over long distances using common twisted-pair cable. Combined with the TP-2xl, this set of machines is an
upgrade of the TP-1N/TP-2N pair (now discontinued). Using good quality cable, the system can maintain the
bandwidth of an industrial color video signal up to 4000 ft. (1.3km) vs. 1000ft of the old version, and broadcast quality
(up to 12 MHz) for as much as 750 ft. (250 meters). At shorter distances, bandwidth of 100 MHz is easily achieved.
The set provides gain and high frequency compensation controls to optimize levels in extremely long runs. Kramer
twisted-pair adapters solve remote monitoring requirements without using more costly fiber or wireless transmission
systems. Using the RK-50R kit, a set of TP-1xl/TP-2xl can be mounted in a standard 19” rack.
