Overview
3 Overview
The TP-210 XGA Line Transmitter is a high-performance distribution
amplifier for computer graphics video signals with resolutions ranging from
VGA through UXGA and higher. It takes one input and provides 10 twisted
pair outputs plus two computer gra phi cs video outputs on 15-pin HD
connectors for local monitoring.
The TP-210 XGA Line Transmitter features:
• HDTV compatibility
• Maximum resolution - WUXGA and 1080p
• Two XGA outputs for local monitoring
• 10 CAT 5 outputs for simultaneous signal transmission to 10 locations,
each with a transmission range of more than 300 feet (more than 100
1
meters
• H and V SYNC switches for changing the polarity of the signal
3.1 Power Connect Feature
The
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
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).
)
Power Connect feature applies as long as the cable can carry power.
2
. For units which are connected via RJ-45 connectors,
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.
Each output on the TP-210 can supply up to 500mA/12V, but no m ore than
2.5A in total (for all the outputs). Before using this feature, be sure that the
TP-210 is capable of providing the current requirements of the CAT 5
receivers.
1 If the receiver is connected at a distance of over 50 meters, you need to connect a separate power supply for that receiver
2 CAT 5 cable is still suitable for the video/audio transmission, but not for feeding the power at these distances

3.2 Shielded Twisted Pair (STP)/Unshielded Twisted Pair (UTP)
We recommend that you use Shielded Twisted Pair (STP) cable. There are
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.
3.3 Recommendations for Achieving the Best Performance
1
• Use o
nly good quality connection cables
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 TP-210
away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust

6 Connecting the TP-210 XGA Line Transmitter/DA
To connect the TP-210, as Figure 3 illustrates, do the following:
1. Connect an XGA source (for example, a computer graphics source) to the
XGA INPUT connector.
2. Connect the XGA OUT 1 XGA connector to an XGA acceptor (for
example, local display 1).
3. Connect the XGA OUT 2 XGA connector to an XGA acceptor (for
example, local display 2).
