6.2Getting to Know the TP-1xlVideo Line Transmitter
The Kramer TP-1xlis 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-2Npair (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-50Rkit, a set of TP-1xl/TP-2xlcan be mounted in a standard 19” rack.
