Audio

All Extron TP receivers receive and output stereo audio. All receivers except the TP R 15HD A output the audio on both left and right RCA connectors and on 3.5 mm, 5-pole captive screw connectors. The TP R 15HD A outputs audio on the captive screw connector only.

NIf only an audio signal, no video, is received, connect a ground wire between the chassis ground and earth ground in the equipment rack or other grounded device. If the receiver is not grounded, a crackling sound may be heard in the audio output.

Power connector

I Power

TP R BNC AV — Plug a standard IEC power cord into this connector to connect the TP R BNC AV to a 100 to 240 VAC, 50 Hz or 60 Hz power source.

NIf the distance between the transmitter and receiver is too great for the receiver to power the transmitter, the video image will be missing, distorted, or noisy, or the receiver Manual/Auto LED will flash. The transmitter will require a local power supply.
