featUres
The Extron MTP 15HD A Series is a versatile family of mini twisted
pair transmitters and receivers for sending high resolution computervideo and audio signals long distances over a single twisted pair cable.
The series has five transmitter models and seven receiver models. All
models are compatible with resolutions up to 1920x1200 WUXGA
and support cable runs of 600 feet (185 meters) or more with XGA
signals, and 450 feet (135 meters) or more with UXGA signals.
Extended Distance Receivers
For A/V systems with a need to transmit signals even longer
distances, two receiver models, the MTP 1500RL 15HD A and
the MTP 1500RL 15HD A SEQ, receive high resolution video
and audio signals 1,500 feet (450 meters) or more over a single
CAT 5-type cable.
Buffered Loop-Through
All RL receiver models feature an additional female RJ-45 buffered
output, enabling up to eight receivers to be connected in series,
reducing the number of parallel cable runs required. Each receiver
model also offers separate continuously variable level and peaking
adjustments that precisely optimize image quality for various cable
lengths.
Integrated Skew Equalization
SEQ receiver models feature an integrated skew equalizer to correct
the color misalignment present in twisted pair A/V systems using
Category 5, 5e, 6, or 7 cable. Skew is created when the red, green,
and blue video signals arrive at the display at different times; see
Figure 1. Using Extron’s skew equalizer technology, the arrival of color
signals is synchronized, improving image quality while maintaining
full signal integrity; see Figure 2.

A Complete Twisted Pair Solution
These transmitters and receivers are part of the larger, comprehensive
MTP Series of twisted pair products. They can be used for single
point-to-point applications or in combination with other twisted pair
products, including switchers, distribution amplifiers, and matrix
switchers, to create more complex A/V systems with multiple inputs
and outputs. The Extron MTP Series provides integrators and system
designers with the most complete twisted pair product offering in
the industry.
