XTP PI 400 Power Injector • Setup Guide (Continued)

Features

Indicators

A Front panel power LED indicator — Lights to indicate the XTP PI 400 is receiving power.

B Front panel XTP Power Out LED indicators — Light when the XTP PI 400 is

providing power to XTP endpoints.

NOTE: If the last connected endpoint draws more power than the XTP PI 400 can provide, the corresponding XTP Power Out LED indicator blinks, indicating the output cannot be powered because too much power is being drawn from the XTP PI 400. Disconnect the endpoint to correct the issue.

C Rear panel Pwr LED indicators — Light or blink to indicate various power states of the connected endpoints (see the table below for LED states).

LED State

Port Status

 

 

Unlit

The endpoint is not connected or cannot be powered.

 

 

Lit

The endpoint is receiving power from the XTP PI 400.

 

 

Blinks five times

There is a power overload fault.

 

 

Blinks nine times

The power allocation is exceeded.

Supported cables

The XTP PI 400 is compatible with CAT 5e, 6, 6a, and 7 shielded twisted pair (F/UTP, SF/UTP, and S/FTP) and unshielded twisted pair (U/UTP) cable.

ATTENTION:

•Do not use Extron UTP23SF-4 Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable or STP201 cable.

•To ensure FCC Class A and CE compliance, STP cables and STP connectors are required.

Cable recommendations

Extron recommends using the following practices to achieve full transmission distances up to 330 feet (100 m) and reduce transmission errors.

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

zz

XTP DTP 24/1000

Non-plenum 1000 feet (305 m) spool

22-236-03

zz

XTP DTP 24P/1000

Plenum 1000 feet (305 m) spool

22-235-03

zz XTP DTP 24 Plug

Package of 10

101-005-02

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