3 Overview

The TP-133and TP-134are a high-performance, TP (Twisted Pair) transmitter and receiver for transmitting computer graphics video, balanced/unbalanced stereo audio and bidirectional RS-232 data signals over extended distances using CAT 5/6 cable. The TP-133and TP-134together form an extended computer graphics/audio/data line transmission and reception system. The TP-133converts computer graphics video, balanced/unbalanced stereo audio and RS-232 data into a TP signal. The TP-134converts the TP signal back into computer graphics video, balanced/unbalanced stereo audio and RS-232 data. More specifically, the TP-133and TP-134support:

Video resolution up to WUXGA 1920 x 1200

Automatic EQ Compensation - automatically detects and compensates for the EQ losses in the TP cable. Can also be set manually (TP-134)

Automatic Skew Correction - automatically detects and corrects the differential delay in the R, G & B color components due to the TP cable. Can also be set manually (TP-134)

Full duplex, bidirectional RS-232 transmission

Increased level of protection against noise, spikes and interference in adverse environments

Transmission range of up to 200m (656ft)

Cable - for optimum range and performance, use Kramer's BC-DGKat524, BC−DGKat623 and BC−DGKat7a23 cables. Note that the transmission range depends on the signal resolution, graphics card and display used. The distance using non −Kramer CAT 5, CAT 6, and CAT 7 cables may not reach these ranges. Use only shielded cable where both ends of the shield are soldered to ground

Control - Skew: auto or manual (R, G & B); equalization (peaking): auto or manual

Built in Test Pattern Generator for manually setting R, G & B skew and equalization

Compact MegaTOOLS™ - 2 units can be rack mounted side −by−side in a 1U rack space with the optional RK−T2B universal rack adapter
