Introduction About this Manual N The receiver-to-transmitter serial communications and This setup guide allows you to easily and quickly set up and configure your Extron MTPX Twisted Pair (TP) Matrix Switcher. Step by step instructions show you how to connect the hardware, and then use the physical controls and the Matrix Switchers Control Program to optimize the video and audio output for the best quality. About the MTPX Switchers The MTPX matrix switcher (figure 1-1) distributes signals that are compatible with the Extron MTP and VTT/VTR product lines. The matrix switcher routes a TP input signal to any combination of TP outputs. Depending on the MTP model, the routed TP signal can include RGB or low resolution video and either mono audio or transmitter-to-receiver RS-232 serial communications. The matrix switcher can route multiple input/output configurations simultaneously.

MTPX • Introduction Refer also to the MTPX User’s Manual at www.extron.com. 1-3 Introduction, cont’d Twisted Pair (TP) Cable Transmission Distance C Do not connect this device to a computer data or telecommunications network. The maximum distance is determined by the frequency and resolution of the signal that is input to the transmitter or to one of the matrix switcher’s local inputs. The table below specifies the recommended maximum transmission distances using Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V UTP cable or UTP CAT 5, 5e, or 6 cable, terminated with RJ-45 connectors. Recommended transmission distances at 60 Hz Video format MTPX Pre-Peak Maximum distance On Off High quality Variable quality <350' (100 m) >400' (120 m) 800' (245 m) 1,000' (300 m) 640 x 480 <350' 100 m) >400' (120 m) 700' (215 m) 750' (230 m) 800 x 600 <350' (100 m) >400' (120 m) 550' (168 m) 650' (200 m) 1024 x 768* <350' (100 m) >400' (120 m) 500' (150 m) 600' (185 m) 1280 x 1024* <350' (100 m) >400' (120 m) 350' (100 m) 450' (135 m) 1600 x 1200* <350' (100 m) >400' (120 m) 300' (90 m) 450' (135 m) Component, S-video, composite N The transmitters, receivers, and matrix switcher are designed for and perform best with Extron Enhanced Skew-Free A/V cable terminated in accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568 A wiring standard. CAT 5, 5e, and 6 cables are acceptable, but less preferable. We also recommend the use of preterminated and tested cables. Cables terminated on site should be tested before use to ensure that they comply with Category 5 specifications. N The recommendations shown on the preceeding page apply equally for a transmission line consisting of a single transmitter, the switcher, and receiver; and for a transmision line that encompass a transmission daisy chain. For example, the maximum suggested range for 1024 x 768 video is 350’ (100 m) with Pre-Peak off and 400’ (120 m) with Pre-Peak on whether the transmission line consists of the transmitter, switcher, and a single receiver or a transmitter, the switcher, and three daisychained receivers. N For daisy-chained units, the first receiver in the chain should be at least 50’ (15 m) from the switcher when the Pre-Peak feature is on. N For daisy-chained units, any receiver in the chain closer than 350’ (105 m) may experience some form of overpeaking when the Pre-Peak switch is on. N For any transmission distances above 350' (100 m), turn on the transmitting device's (MTP transmitter or MTPX) prepeak function. See the MTP Transmitter/Receiver User's Manual and/or the Output Pre-Peaking SIS commands on page 4-4. N Resolutions marked with an asterisk (*) in these tables have the same range specifications at 75 Hz. N The minimum TP cable length should be 50' (15m). N It is possible to exceed the recommended distance; however, image quality may be reduced. N The MTPX output can be extended by 50 feet (15 m) for those outputs that have a Pre-Peak feature that is turned on. 1-4 MTPX • Introduction Refer also to the MTPX User’s Manual at www.extron.com.
