3 Overview
The TP-219HD is a high-performance twisted pair transmitter for computer
graphics signals with resolutions ranging from VGA through UXGA and
higher as well as HDTV signals up to 1080p. It takes one of two inputs as
selected by the user and converts it to a twisted pair signal.
The TP-220HD is a high-performance twisted pair receiver for computer
graphics signals with resolutions ranging from VGA through UXGA and
higher as well as HDTV signals up to 1080p. It converts a twisted pair
signal back into two identical signals in the original format.
The TP-219HD XGA/HD Line Transmitter/Switcher:
• Has a transmission range of more than 300 feet (more than 100 meters)
• Includes two XGA
1
/YUV2 inputs on 15-pin HD connectors
• Features an INPUT SELECTOR button to select between INPUT 1 and
INPUT 2
• Can change the polarity of encoding H and V Sync for XGA graphics
• Can power or be powered by the receiver over the same CAT 5 cable
(see section 3.1
)
• Is 12V DC fed
The TP-220HD XGA/HD Line Receiver/DA:
• Has two XGA/YUV
2
outputs on 15-pin HD connecto rs
• Can change the polarity of decoding H and V Sync for XGA graphics
• Includes EQ. and LEVEL controls
• Can power or be powered by the transmitter over the same CAT 5 cable
(see section 3.1
)
• Is 12V DC fed
3.1 About the Power Connect Feature
The
Power Connect feature applies as long as the cable can carry power.
This feature is available when using STP cable and the distance does not
exceed 50m on standard CAT 5 cable. For longer distances, heavy gauge
cable should be used
3
. For units which are connected via RJ-45 connectors,
make sure that the shield of the STP cable is connected to the metal casing
1 The terminology XGA is used throughout this manual, where this implies any RGBHV signal on an HD15 connector
having a resolution from VGA up to UXGA
2 Also known as Y, Cb, Cr, or Y, B-Y, R-Y, or Y, Pb, Pr
3 CAT 5 cable is still suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding the power at these distances
