Warning
Power sources • This equipment should be operated only from the power source indicated on the product. This
equipment is intended to be used with a main power system with a grounded (neutral) conductor. The
third (grounding) pin is a safety feature, do not attempt to bypass or disable it.
Power disconnection • To remove power from the equipment safely, remove all power cords from the rear of
the equipment, or the desktop power module (if detachable), or from the power source receptacle (wall
plug).
Power cord protection • Power cords should be routed so that they are not likely to be stepped on or pinched by
items placed upon or against them.
Servicing • Refer all servicing to qualified service personnel. There are no user-serviceable parts inside. To
prevent the risk of shock, do not attempt to service this equipment yourself because opening or removing
covers may expose you to dangerous voltage or other hazards.
Slots and openings • If the equipment has slots or holes in the enclosure, these are provided to prevent
overheating of sensitive components inside. These openings must never be blocked by other objects.
Lithium battery • There is a danger of explosion if battery is incorrectly replaced. Replace it only with the
same or equivalent type recommended by the manufacturer. Dispose of used batteries according to the
manufacturer’s instructions.
Avertissement
Alimentations• Ne faire fonctionner ce matériel qu’avec la source d’alimentation indiquée sur l’appareil. Ce
matériel doit être utilisé avec une alimentation principale comportant un fil de terre (neutre). Le troisième
contact (de mise à la terre) constitue un dispositif de sécurité : n’essayez pas de la contourner ni de la
désactiver.
Déconnexion de l’alimentation• Pour mettre le matériel hors tension sans danger, déconnectez tous les cordons
d’alimentation de l’arrière de l’appareil ou du module d’alimentation de bureau (s’il est amovible) ou
encore de la prise secteur.
Protection du cordon d’alimentation • Acheminer les cordons d’alimentation de manière à ce que personne ne
risque de marcher dessus et à ce qu’ils ne soient pas écrasés ou pincés par des objets.
Réparation-maintenance • Faire exécuter toutes les interventions de réparation-maintenance par un technicien
qualifié. Aucun des éléments internes ne peut être réparé par l’utilisateur. Afin d’éviter tout danger
d’électrocution, l’utilisateur ne doit pas essayer de procéder lui-même à ces opérations car l’ouverture ou le
retrait des couvercles risquent de l’exposer à de hautes tensions et autres dangers.
Fentes et orifices • Si le boîtier de l’appareil comporte des fentes ou des orifices, ceux-ci servent à empêcher
les composants internes sensibles de surchauffer. Ces ouvertures ne doivent jamais être bloquées par des
objets.
Lithium Batterie • Il a danger d’explosion s’ll y a remplacment incorrect de la batterie. Remplacer uniquement
avec une batterie du meme type ou d’un ype equivalent recommande par le constructeur. Mettre au reut les
batteries usagees conformement aux instructions du fabricant.
Vorsicht
Stromquellen • Dieses Gerät sollte nur über die auf dem Produkt angegebene Stromquelle betrieben werden.
Dieses Gerät wurde für eine Verwendung mit einer Hauptstromleitung mit einem geerdeten (neutralen)
Leiter konzipiert. Der dritte Kontakt ist für einen Erdanschluß, und stellt eine Sicherheitsfunktion dar. Diese
sollte nicht umgangen oder außer Betrieb gesetzt werden.
Stromunterbrechung • Um das Gerät auf sichere Weise vom Netz zu trennen, sollten Sie alle Netzkabel
aus der Rückseite des Gerätes, aus der externen Stomversorgung (falls dies möglich ist) oder aus der
Wandsteckdose ziehen.

Introduction
About this Manual
This manual describes the procedures for installing and using the Extron TP Series
transmitters, including the TP T 15HD A, TP T 15HD AV, and TP T BNC DA4. The
terms “TP T transmitter” and “transmitter” are used interchangeably throughout
this manual to refer to these three products generically.
About the TP T Series Transmitters
The Extron Twisted Pair (TP) series transmitters provide long-distance distribution
of RGB video, component video, S-video, composite video, and stereo audio
over Extron’s Enhanced Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable (recommended) or standard
Category (CAT) 5/5e/6 unshielded twisted pair (UTP), shielded twisted pair (STP),
or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable.
PRELIMINARY
N
The TP T Series transmitters are designed for and perform best with Extron
Enhanced Skew-Free cable.
Recommended transmission distances
The minimum reliable transmission distance to all receivers, with the exception of
the TP R 15HD A, is 25 feet (7.6 m). There is no minimum distance for transmission
to the TP R 15HD A.
The maximum distance is determined by the output frequency and resolution. The
following tables specify the recommended maximum transmission distances from
a TP T transmitter to an Extron TP R series receiver, using Extron Skew-Free A/V
UTP cable or UTP CAT 5 cable terminated with CAT 5e or CAT 6 rated connectors.
N
TP T Series transmitter to TP R 15HD A receiver using CAT 5/5e/6 or
Enhanced Skew-Free cable at 60 Hz
Extron recommends using the highest quality cable available and affordable.
Use of pre-terminated and tested cables is also recommended. Cables terminated
on site should be tested before use to ensure that they comply with Category 5e
specifications.

Each transmitted TP signal must be connected to the appropriate Extron TP
receiver. This user’s manual documents the installation, features, and operation
of the TP transmitters only. For information about the TP receivers, refer to the TP
Receivers Family User’s Manual.
It is possible to exceed the recommended distances; however, image quality may
be degraded.
