Signal Jumpers for Generational Compatibility
Over time, the MTPs have been redesigned, affecting the signal
content of the TP cable wire pairs, changing the audio from
stereo to mono, and eliminating the remote power capability.
The new-generation units are not compatible with the old
generation unless an internal jumper in the new unit is shifted.
Shift the new transmitter’s and/or receiver’s jumpers if:
•
Your installation mixes a transmitter and receiver from
different generations.
•
You want the units to transmit stereo audio.
•
You want one unit to remotely power another.
Use the table below to identify the generation (revision level) of
the transmitter and receiver in your installation. If any of the
above scenarios are true, reconfigure the units’ jumpers before
mounting the units
.
Only the new generation units have these jumpers.
