•• Extron Enhanced Skew-FreeAV UTP cable

•• Category (CAT) 5, 5e, and 6 shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable.

This guide details the installation and operation of the following products:

•• MTP T 15HD RS twisted pair (TP) transmitter

•• MTP RL 15HD RS receiver with loop-through

•• MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ receiver with loop-through and skew equalization In this guide:

•• The term "transmitter" refers specifically to the MTP T 15HD RS transmitter.

•• The term "receiver" refers to either of the receiver models — the MTP RL 15HD RS or MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ.

•• The term "SEQ receiver" refers specifically to the MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ receiver with skew equalization capabilities.

About the MTP Transmitters and Receivers

The Extron MTP T 15HD RS transmitter and MTP RL 15HD RS and MTP RL 15HD RS SEQ receivers are a system for long-distance distribution of VGA or other high resolution video and RS-232 serial communications.

The MTPs are a part of the Extron compact line of basic distribution amplifiers, switchers, transmitters, receivers, and associated video accessories.

High resolution video is sent to the MTP transmitter on a 15-pin HD connector. The transmitter passes RS-232 serial data or control signals on a 3.5 mm 3-pin captive screw connector. The transmitter converts the video and RS-232 signals to proprietary signals and outputs them to the compatible MTP receiver on an RJ-45 connector. The transmitter also makes the input video available for local use on a 15-pin HD connector.

The transmitted proprietary signal is sent to the receiver on an RJ-45 connector and converts the signal back into its high resolution video and serial data components. The receiver outputs the video on a 15-pin HD connector. The serial communications are passed on a 3.5 mm 3-pin captive screw connector.
