Introduction
This section gives an overview of the user guide and describes the
MTP 15HD A Series of transmitters and receivers. Covered topics are:
• About this Guide
• About the MTP Transmitters and Receivers
• Transmission Distance
About this Guide
This guide contains installation, configuration, and operation information for two families of
Extron MTP transmitters and receivers.
• MTP products that are compatible with:
•• Extron Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable
•• Category (CAT) 5, 5e, and 6 shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair
(UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable.
• MTP C7 [CAT 7, C7] products that are compatible with Shielded Twisted Pair 201
(STP201) or CAT 7 cable only.
In this guide, any reference to these products refers to either family, unless explicitly stated.
NOTE: For clarity and where applicable, in this guide, the CAT 5, 5e, 6 versions are
referred to as non-C7 MTPs.
This guide details the installation and operation of the following products:
• MTP T 15HD A twisted pair (TP) transmitter
• MTP RL 15HD A receiver with loop-through
• MTP RL 15HD A SEQ receiver with loop-through and skew equalization
In this guide:
• The term "transmitter" refers specifically to the MTP T 15HD A transmitter.
• The term "receiver" refers to either of the receiver models — the MTP RL 15HD A or
MTP RL 15HD A SEQ.
• The term "SEQ receiver" refers specifically to the MTP RL 15HD A SEQ receiver with
skew equalization capabilities.
MTP 15HD A Series • Introduction 1
About the MTP Transmitters and Receivers
The Extron MTP T 15HD A transmitter and MTP RL 15HD A and MTP RL 15HD A SEQ
receivers are a system for long-distance distribution of VGA or other high resolution video
and audio.
The MTPs are a part of the Extron compact line of basic distribution amplifiers, switchers,
transmitters and receivers, and associated video accessories.
High resolution video on a 15-pin HD connector as well as stereo audio on a 3.5 mm stereo
jack is sent to the MTP transmitter. The transmitter sums the left and right audio channels
to convert the audio to mono (L+R) format. The MTP T then converts the input video and
mono audio signals to proprietary signals and outputs them to the compatible MTP receiver
on an RJ-45 connector. A pre-peaking control allows you to boost the transmission distance
of the proprietary signal. The transmitter also makes the input video available for local use
on a 15-pin HD connector.
The transmitted proprietary signal is sent to the receiver on an RJ-45 connector and is
converted back into its high resolution video and mono audio components. The receiver
auto-detects the incoming video format, enabling the signal to be output on the appropriate
pins of the 15-pin HD connector, while the two sets of identical mono audio signals are
output on a single 3.5 mm captive screw connector (A series only; RS series outputs on an
RS-232 connection).
The receiver also buffers the proprietary input signal and sends it to another compatible
MTP receiver or to a daisy chain of receivers.
NOTES:
• The transmitter provides pre-peaking, which boosts the signal before it is
transmitted. The buffered output on the receiver does not provide any
pre-peaking control. The total recommended distance (see the table on page 4)
for an entire daisy chain is the same as for a single transmitter and receiver. The
Pre-Peak switch on the transmitter has the same effect on the recommended
transmission distance for a daisy chain as for a single transmitter and receiver.
• Up to eight receivers can be connected in series using Buffered Output connectors,
provided that the total distance from the twisted pair output of the transmitter to
the last receiver in the chain does not exceed the recommended distance for the
resolution being used.
The SEQ receiver also corrects the skew delay commonly encountered when CAT 5, 5e, 6,
7, or STP201 cables are used for RGB video, component video, and S-video transmission.
NOTE: An SEQ receiver should not be necessary when Extron Enhanced Skew-Free AV
UTP cable and non-C7 transmitters and receivers are used.
Each MTP transmitter and receiver model is shipped with an external desktop 12 V power
supply that accepts 100 VAC to 240 VAC, 50-60 Hz input.
Twisted Pair Cable Advantages
Twisted pair cable is smaller, lighter, more flexible, and less expensive than coaxial cable.
Termination of the cable with RJ-45 connectors is simple, quick, and economical.
MTP 15HD A Series • Introduction 2
Transmission Distance
The maximum distance is determined by the frequency and resolution of the signal that
is input to the transmitter. The table on page 4 specifies the recommended maximum
transmission distances and transmitter Pre-Peak switch positions (see E on page 10) using
Extron Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable, STP201 cable, or CAT 5, 5e, 6, or 7 cable,
terminated with RJ-45 connectors.
NOTES:
• The transmitter and receiver are designed for and perform best with
Extron Enhanced Skew-Free AV UTP cable terminated in accordance with the
TIA/EIA T 568 A wiring standard. CAT 5, 5e, and 6 cables are acceptable, but less
preferable. We also recommend the use of pre-terminated and tested cables. Cables
terminated on site should be tested before use to ensure that they comply with
Category 5 specifications.
• The recommendations shown in the table on page 4 apply for a single transmitter
and receiver and for a daisy chain. For example, the maximum suggested range for
1024 x 768 video is 300 feet (90 m) with the Pre-Peak switch off and 500 feet
(150 m) with the Pre-Peak switch on, whether the system consists of one transmitter
and one receiver or a transmitter and three daisy-chained receivers.
• Extron recommends using at least 25 feet of twisted pair cable between the
transmitter and the first receiver.
• For daisy-chained units, the first receiver in the chain must be at least
100 feet (30 m) from the transmitter when the Pre-Peak switch is on.
• For daisy-chained units, any receiver in the chain closer than 350 feet (105 m) may
experience some form of over-peaking when the Pre-Peak switch is on.
An over-peaked image may appear bloomed.
