Twisted Pair (TP) Cable Transmission Distance

CDo not connect this device to a computer data or telecommunications network.

The maximum distance is determined by the frequency and resolution of the signal that is input to the transmitter or to one of the matrix switcher’s local inputs. The table below specifies the recommended maximum transmission distances using Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable or UTP CAT 5, 5e, or 6 cable, terminated with RJ-45 connectors.

NFor any transmission distances above 350' (100 m), turn on the transmitting device's (MTP transmitter or MTPX) prepeak function. See the MTP Transmitter/Receiver User's Manual and/or the Output Pre-PeakingSIS commands on page 4-4.

NResolutions marked with an asterisk (*) in these tables have the same range specifications at 75 Hz.

NThe minimum TP cable length should be 50' (15m).

NIt is possible to exceed the recommended distance; however, image quality may be reduced.

NThe MTPX output can be extended by 50 feet (15 m) for those outputs that have a Pre-Peak feature that is turned on.

1-4 MTPX • Introduction

NThe transmitters, receivers, and matrix switcher are designed for and perform best with Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable terminated in accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568 A wiring standard. CAT 5, 5e, and 6 cables are acceptable, but less preferable. We also recommend the use of preterminated and tested cables. Cables terminated on site should be tested before use to ensure that they comply with Category 5 specifications.

NThe recommendations shown on the preceeding page apply equally for a transmission line consisting of a single transmitter, the switcher, and receiver; and for a transmision line that encompass a transmission daisy chain. For example, the maximum suggested range for 1024 x 768 video is 350’ (100 m) with Pre-Peak off and 400’ (120 m) with Pre-Peak on whether the transmission line consists of the transmitter, switcher, and a single receiver or a transmitter, the switcher, and three daisy- chained receivers.

NFor daisy-chained units, the first receiver in the chain should be at least 50’ (15 m) from the switcher when the Pre-Peak feature is on.

NFor daisy-chained units, any receiver in the chain closer than 350’ (105 m) may experience some form of over- peaking when the Pre-Peak switch is on.
