H

Receiver input connector — Connect one end of the two

 

separate TP cables from the transmitter output connectors (item

 

Fon page 2-17) to these RJ-45 female connectors.

 

C Do not connect these devices to a computer data or

 

telecommunications network.

 

N In order to fit in the junction box, the TP cables and

 

RJ-45 connectors should not have a boot installed.

 

N Connect transmitter output 1 to receiver input 1.

 

Connect transmitter output 2 to receiver input 2.

NIf necessary, test for proper cable connection (output 1 to input 1, output 2 to input 2) as follows:

1. Plug both TP cables into the powered unit.

2. Momentarily connect either of the cables on the

opposite end into the unpowered unit‘s “2” connector.

If the unpowered unit’s Power LED is lit, the connection is correct.

If the unpowered unit’s Power LED is not lit, unplug the connector on the unpowered end and connect the other cable to the “2” connector.

NExtron recommends 28AWG to 24AWG TP cable for the RJ-45 connectors.

See "TP cable termination," on page 2-23, to properly wire the RJ-45 connectors.

DVI Output connector — Connect a DVI monitor or projector

 

for display of the transmitted direct digital image. See "DVI

 

connector pin assignments," on page 2-22, for pin assignments.

J

Audio Input connector (DVI 201 A D Rx [Decora] only) —

 

Connect one end of a 5-wire audio cable to this 3.5 mm, 5-pole

 

direct insertion connector.

Connect the free end of the same cable to any compatibly wired audio source unit, such as a switcher's output or a DVI 201 A D Tx (Decora) transmitter.

Figure 2-18 shows how to wire the captive screw audio connector. Insert the wires into the appropriate openings in the direct insertion connector. Tighten the screws on the side to fasten the wires.
