The MTP U Series Universal Receivers are designed to accept a wide range of video
formats, along with RS-232 or audio signals, on a single UTP cable. When used
with Extron MTPX and MTPX Plus Series matrix switchers, MTP U Series receivers
eliminate the need for multiple receiver units and multiple cables per display, and
dramatically reduce the number of matrix switcher outputs required.

DesCRIPTION
MODels
The Extron MTP U Series Universal Mini Twisted Pair Receivers accept
a wide variety of video formats along with RS-232 or audio signals
on a single UTP cable, providing dramatic cost savings with superior
performance in complex twisted pair matrix switching applications.
With advanced features, including the ability to automatically route
the incoming UTP signal to the appropriate video, audio, and RS-232
output connector, systems require only one receiver, one cable, and
one matrix switcher output for each display.
MTP U Series universal receivers are fully compatible with Extron
MTPX and MTPX Plus Series Mini Twisted Pair Matrix Switchers and
all MTP Series transmitters. The compact units can fit just about
anywhere: in equipment racks, under tables, or near a display.
Automatic Signal Format Detection
MTP U Series universal receivers automatically detect the UTP format
of the incoming video signal, as well as any incoming audio or
RS-232 control signal. The incoming signals are then routed to the
appropriate output connectors. Only one video output connector will
be active at any time. The other video connectors are muted. This is
ideal for applications that use display devices set to auto detect mode.
Next Generation of Twisted Pair Integration
When used together with the Extron MTPX and MTPX Plus Series
Mini Twisted Pair Matrix Switchers, MTP U Series universal receivers
facilitate system integration and eliminate many of the headaches
normally encountered with other twisted pair solutions.
