descriPT ion
The Extron TPX 88 and TPX 88 A twisted pair matrix switchers work in conjunction with Extron
twisted pair transmitters and receivers to provide simplified routing of signals ranging from
RGBHV to composite video or S-video and stereo audio using twisted pair cable.
Each model also includes timesaving features such as global presets for recalling predetermined
configurations and various control options such as RS-232 and RS-422, the Extron MCP 1000M
and MKP Series control panels and keypads, or front panel.
Capable of connecting to as many as eight twisted pair transmitters and eight twisted pair
receivers, the TPX 88 and TPX 88 A twisted pair matrix switchers provide simplified signal
routing and control while letting system designers and installers take advantage of the multiple
benefits of A/V signal distribution over UTP cables.
Audio Encoding and Pass-Through
The TPX 88 A passes digitally encoded analog audio from TP Series transmitters, as well as
analog audio from MTP Series transmitters. In addition, the TPX 88 A can decode the digital
signals back to analog and output them on captive screw connectors for use in a local audio
system.
The TPX 88 passes only analog audio from MTP Series composite video and S-vi deo
transmitters, when configured for stereo audio. When used with MTP 15HD Series transmitter,
the TPX 88 and TPX 88 A will pass video signals only; no audio or control signals will be passed
to the receiver.
