Introduction
The Extron® VTT001 twisted pair (TP) transmitter series and VTR001 twisted pair receiver
series provide a system for sending VGA, RGBHV, and RGBS signals up to 500 feet
(150 meters) over Extron Skew-Free™ A/V UTP cable. They can also send these signals over
CAT 5/5e/6 UTP cable.
Both transmitter and receiver have remote power capability. For transmission distances up
to 300 feet, the applied power is required at either the transmitter or the receiver. Greater
distances require power to be applied locally to both transmitter and receiver.
Depending on the model, both transmitter and receiver modules may be mounted in a wall,
a rack, or in other Extron products that accept a double-sized MAAP connector panel (such
as CPM101, CPM200, and CPM112R), or Extron AAP mounting products; or they may be set
on a tabletop. The MAAP models come in a black or white finish; the AAP model comes in
black, white, or gray finish; and the tabletop model comes in a black finish.
The following table specifies the maximum recommended transmission distances for the
VTT001/VTR001 pair at 60 Hz.

Cable Testing
To ensure proper cable termination, each transmission cable system that uses CAT 5e or
CAT 6 cable should be tested (Extron Skew-Free A/V UTP cable does not need to be tested).
Testing the cable from the RJ-45 connections at the transmitter and receiver gives the most
accurate indications of cable problems.
There are two varieties of cable runs: simple runs, in which a single cable is terminated
only at the transmitter and receiver; and complex runs, which can include patch bays and
multiple terminations and lengths of cable. In either case, the entire cabling system should
be tested.
A complete test measures cable length and tests the wire map, attenuation, NEXT, PSNEXT,
ELFEXT, PSELFEXT, return loss, ACR and PSACR. All of these tests are critical for digital
data transfer. While all of these tests are important indicators of the quality of the cable
termination, the most critical testing parameters for video transfer are wire map (T568A or
T568B termination) and pair length measurements. The largest concern is equalization of
skew between cable pairs. Cable systems of 300 feet or less should exhibit no transmission
problems if they pass at least CAT 5e or preferably CAT 6-D5 channel certification testing.
The Microtest OMNI SCANNER 2 performs comprehensive certification testing to the
proposed CAT 6 standards. Other manufacturers also make testing equipment. The tests
include advanced diagnostics for troubleshooting the cause and location of many cable and
termination problems. For simple installation testing, the Microtest MICRO SCANNER PRO
tests wire map and cable length, including individual cable pair length.
VTT001 and VTR001 User Guide • Installation 8
Equalizing Pair Skew
Pair skew issues are eliminated when you use Extron Skew-Free A/V UTP cables.
The manufacturing process for CAT 5e or CAT 6 network UTP cable leads to a condition
called pair skew. For best results, pair skew needs to be equalized when using the CAT 5e or
CAT 6 cable in A/V applications. The design of Extron’s Skew-Free A/V UTP cable minimizes
pair skew to the point that equalization is not required.
Skew exists between pairs when the physical length of one wire pair is different from
another. As the transmission cable length increases, the amount of skew increases. Skew
affects the displayed image when the differential length between wire pairs exceeds two
feet, causing the timing of the red, green, and blue video signals to appear out of alignment
(horizontal registration errors). A white vertical line on a black field can appear as individual
red, green, and blue lines that are close together; the signal transmitted on the shortest wire
pair leads the other colors and appears to the left on the display.
UTP cable test equipment measures and reports wire pair length.
The report on the various pair lengths can be used in equalizing
pair skew. The nominal velocity of propagation (NVP — the speed
at which the signal travels on the transmission line, measured as
a percentage of the speed of light) of TP cable is very close to that
of conventional coaxial cable. The difference in NVP means that
Sharpness
an additional length of coaxial cable equal to the length of pair
skew, placed on the receiver’s output, equalizes the effects of pair
skew.
CAT 5 TP cable can lead to registration errors between the red,
green, and blue video signals. Pair skew can be measured with
test equipment or identified by viewing a crosshatch test pattern

closely to determine if either the red, green, or blue video image
leads (appears to the left of) the other two video images. These
images can be minimized or eliminated by one of the following
methods:
• Switch to the Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable.
• Add a skew compensation cable equal to the length of pair skew to the receiver’s
output.
• Install an Extron Skew Equalizer, SEQ 100 15HD (part number: 60-676-01), on the video
output of the receiver and adjust the skew for the leading video image.
Sharpness Adjustment
The longer the cable being used, the greater the signal loss. The image sharpness may
be enhanced by turning a peaking adjustment screw located on the top of the receiver.
Increased peaking can compensate for detail (mid- and high-frequency) loss from low
bandwidth system components or capacitance in long cables. Adjust this control using the
included adjustment tool (Extron part number: 100-014-01LF) while viewing the displayed
image to obtain the optimum picture sharpness. Turning the control clockwise increases
peaking and turning it counterclockwise decreases peaking.

x
The mountable transmitter (VTT001 MAAP) and mountable receiver (VTR001 MAAP)
may be attached to a wall with either a stud-mounted wall box or with a wall mounting
bracket (Extron part number: 70-163-xx). Both installations require the double spaced
MAAP connector frame, such as the CPM101). The transmitter/receiver module can also be
attached to any Extron MAAP device that accepts a double spaced A/V connector panel, or
the modules may be rack mounted. The AAP version of the receiver mounts to Extron AAP
frames (see Other Accessories).
Preparing the Wall Box
For wall and furniture mounting installations, the installation site must be deep enough for
both the wall box and the cables. The box should be at least 2.5 inches (6.4 cm) deep. Install
cables into the wall, furniture, or conduits before installing a wall box or bracket.
1. Place the wall box or mounting bracket against the installation surface, and mark the
guidelines for the opening on the wall or furniture.
2. Cut out the material from the marked area.
3. Insert the wall box or bracket to check the size and fit of the opening. Enlarge or
smooth the edges of the opening if needed.
4. If using a wall box, feed cables through the punch-out holes on the wall box, and secure
them with cable clamps to provide strain relief.
5. Exposed cable shields (braids or foil) are potential sources of short circuits. Trim back
and/or insulate shields with heat shrink.

WARNING: To prevent short circuits, the outer foil shield can be cut back to the
point where the cable exits the cable clamp. Both braided and foil
shields should be connected to an equipment ground at the other end
of the cable.

UL rack mounting guidelines
The following Underwriters Laboratories (UL) guidelines pertain to the safe installation of the
device in a rack.
1. Elevated operating ambient temperature — If installed in a closed or multi-unit
rack assembly, the operating ambient temperature of the rack environment may be
greater than room ambient temperature. Therefore, install the unit in an environment
compatible with the maximum ambient temperature (Tma = +122 °F, +50 °C) specified
by Extron.
2. Reduced air flow — Install the equipment in a rack so that the amount of air flow
required for safe operation of the equipment is not compromised.
3. Mechanical loading — Mount the equipment in the rack so that a hazardous condition
is not achieved due to uneven mechanical loading.
4. Circuit overloading — Connect the equipment to the supply circuit and consider the
effect that circuit overloading might have on overcurrent protection and supply wiring.
Appropriate consideration of equipment nameplate ratings should be used when
addressing this concern.
5. Reliable earthing (grounding) — Maintain reliable grounding of rack-mounted
equipment. Pay particular attention to supply connections other than direct connections
to the branch circuit (that is, use of power strips).

Rack mounting
Various 1U rack space frames accommodate the VTT001 MAAP, VTR001 MAAP, and VTR001
AAP modules. The CPM133 is a one-third rack width frame that can be mounted to the
IN9080 rack mount shelf. The CPM112R, as shown below, is a full rack width frame that
holds six double sized modules.
Depending on the A/V connector frame used, the transmitters/receivers may be mounted to
the rack with or without the rack mount shelf.
1. For mounting without a rack mount shelf, mount the transmitter/receiver modules to
the A/V connector frame, then attach the frame directly to the rack.
