Overview
3 Overview
The TP-43 Component – S/PDIF Transceiver receives a twisted pair CAT 5 signal, decodes it and simultaneously distributes it to the YUV and S/PDIF outputs, as well as relaying the input to the next receiver (transceiver operation). In particular, the TP-43 Component – S/PDIF Transceiver features:
A YUV1 output on 3 RCA connectors  A digital audio output (S/PDIF) on an RCA connector A CAT 5 input and output on RJ-45 connectors Individual level and EQ. controls for the Y, U, and V signals, as
well as audio level and EQ. controls
The TP-43 Component – S/PDIF Transceiver is designed to be used with the TP-41 and the TP-42. When using three TP-43 units between the TP-41 / TP-42 pair, the maximum range of the system via UTP cabling can be extended to up to 1200ft (400m).
Kramer twisted pair adapters are an excellent way to solve remote monitoring requirements without using more costly coaxial cable or fiber, or wireless transmission systems.
To achieve the best performance: Use only good quality connection cables2 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-43 away from moisture, excessive sunlight and dust
Caution – No operator-serviceable parts inside unit.
Warning – Use only the Kramer Electronics input power
wall adapter that is provided with this unit3.
Warning – Disconnect power and unplug unit from wall
before installing or removing device or servicing unit.

3.1 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 STP skew-free cable, Kramer BC-SXTP, is intended for transmitting VGA signals. Our non-skew-free cable, Kramer BC-STP, is intended for digital signals. The compliance to electromagnetic interference was tested using STP cables, therefore we recommend 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 create electrical interference. However, since the use of UTP cable might cause inconformity to electromagnetic standards, Kramer does not commit to meeting the standard with UTP cable.
