Figure 9. TP Cable Termination

NOTE: Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or STP201 cable to link the transmitter and receiver. The DTP T HWP D and DTP T UWP D family of transmitters do not work properly with these cables.

Supported cables

The DTP T HWP D and DTP T UWP D family of transmitters are compatible with shielded twisted pair cables (F/UTP, SF/UTP, and S/FTP).

Cable recommendations

Extron recommends using the following practices to reduce transmission errors and achieve full transmission distances up to 230 feet (70 m) on the 232 models or 330 feet (100 m) on the 332 models.

Use the following Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cables and DTP 24 connectors for the best performance:

XTP DTP 24/1000

Non-Plenum 1000’ (305 m) spool

22-236-03

XTP DTP 24P/1000

Plenum 1000’ (305 m) spool

22-235-03

XTP DTP 24 Plug

Package of 10

101-005-02

If not using XTP DTP 24 cable, at a minimum, Extron recommends 24 AWG, solid conductor, STP cable with a minimum bandwidth of 400 MHz.

Terminate cables with shielded connectors to the TIA/EIA-T568B standard.

Use no more than two pass-through points, which may include patch points, punch down connectors, couplers, and power injectors. If these pass-through points are required, use shielded couplers and punch down connectors.

NOTE: When using STP cable in bundles or conduits, consider the following:

Do not exceed 40% fill capacity in conduits.

Do not comb the cable for the first 20

meters, where cables are straightened,

aligned, and secured in tight bundles.

 

Loosely place cables and limit the use of tie wraps or Velcro®.

Separate twisted pair cables from AC power cables.
