Overview

3 Overview

This section describes:
The power connect feature, see section 3.1
Using shielded twisted pair (STP)/unshielded twisted pair (UTP), see
section 3.2
A summary of the TP-112HD, see section 3.3
Recommendations for achieving the best performance, see section 3.4

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
1
. For units which are connected via RJ-45 connectors, make sure that the shield of the STP cable is connected to the metal casing of the connectors on both ends of the cable. For units which are connected via terminal block connectors, the shield of the STP cable must be connected to a ground terminal on the units at both ends (use the ground terminal of the power supply connection if necessary).
For a CAT 5 cable exceeding a distance of 50m, separate power suppli es should be connected to the transmitter and to the receiver simultaneously.

3.2 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)/Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)

recommend that you use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable. There are
We different levels of STP cable available, and we advise you to use the best quality STP cable that you can afford. Our non-skew-free cable, Kramer BC-STP is intended for analog signals where skewing is not an issue. For cases where there is skewing, our UTP skew-free cable, Kramer BC-XTP, may be used. Bear in mind, though, that we advise using STP cables where possible, since the compliance to electromagnetic interference was tested using those cables.
Although Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP) cable might be preferred for long range applications, the UTP cable should be installed far away from electric cables, motors and so on, which are prone to cre ate electrical interference. However, since the use of UTP cable might cause inconform ity to electromagnetic standards, Kramer does not commit to meeting the standard with UTP cable.
1 CAT 5 cable is still suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding the power at these distances

3.3 About the TP-112HD

Your Kramer TOOLS TP-112HD XGA/HD Line Transmitter - DA:
Receives a computer graphics
CAT 5 cables to appropriate receivers
1
/HD2 signal and transmits it over two
3
Has a transmission range of more than 300 ft. (more than 100 meters)
Includes the Power Connect feature
Is 12V DC fed

3.4 Recommendations for Achieving the Best Performance

To ac
hieve the best performance:
Use only good quality connection cables
4
to avoid interference, deterioration in signal quality due to poor matching, and elevated noise levels (often associated with low quality cables).
Avoid interference from neighboring electrical appliances that may
adversely influence signal quality and position your Kramer product away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

Figure 1, Figure 2, Figure 3 and Table 1 define the TP-112HD:
1 The terminology XGA is used throughout this manual, where this implies an y RGBHV signal on a 15-pin HD connector having a resolution from VGA up to UXGA 2 The TP-112HD accepts high definition resolutions: 480p, 576p, 720p, 1080i, and 1080p 3 Note that the CAT 5 connectors exclude audio 4 Available from Kramer Electronics on our Web site at http://www.kramerelectronics.com

5 Configuring a 1:2 XGA/HD-to-Twisted Pair DA System
You can use the TP-112HD XGA/HD Line Transmitter – DA with two TP-120 XGA Line Receiver units
3
to configure a 1:2 XGA/HD-to-Twisted Pair DA system. This will let you transmit a computer graphics/HD signal to two displays via long line CAT 5 UTP cabling.
To connect the TP-112HD to two TP-120 units, as the example in Figure 5 illustrates, do the following:
1. On the TP-112HD, connect the XGA/HD source (for example, a
computer graphics/HD source) to the XGA/HD INP UT 1 5- pi n H D connector, and connect the line output RJ-45 connector

2. On the two TP-120 units, connect the:
XGA OUT 15-pin HD connector of the first TP-120 unit to the
XGA/HD acceptor (for example, display 1)
XGA OUT 15-pin HD connector of the second TP-120 unit to the
XGA/HD acceptor (for example, display 2)
3. On each of the three Kramer TOOLS, connect the 12V DC power adapter to the power socket and connect the adapter to the mains electricity. The signal from the XGA source is transmitted via the two CAT 5 cables, decoded and converted at the each of the XGA OUT 15-pin HD connectors to the XGA acceptors.
4. On the TP-120 units, if necessary:
1
Set the H SYNC and V SYNC switchesAdjust
2

5. On the TP-112HD, if necessary, set the VS and HS switches
on the
underside
1 By default, both switches are set down (for negative V SYNC and H SYNC polarity) 2 Use a screwdriver to carefully rotate the trimmer, adjusting the appropriate level 3 By default, both switches are set to the right (to NORMAL) to retain the V SYNC and H SYNC polarity
