    MTP SW6 twisted pair switcher. About the MTP SW6 Switcher The Extron MTP SW6 is a 6-input, 1-output twisted pair switcher that is compatible with the entire line of Extron MTP transmitters and receivers. The Extron MTP transmitters and receivers are a system for long-distance distribution of video and either audio or RS-232 communications.

    • Optimizing the Video Mounting the MTP SW6 The MTP SW6 can be set on a table, mounted on a rack shelf, or mounted under a desk, podium, or tabletop. Tabletop Use Four self-adhesive rubber feet are included with the switcher. For tabletop use, attach one foot at each corner on the bottom of the unit and place the unit in the desired location.
  • Page 11 (such as the use of power strips). Rack shelf mounting instructions Remove feet from the bottom of the MTP SW6 if installed. Mount the switcher on the rack shelf, using two 4-40 x 3/16” screws in opposite (diagonal) corners to secure it to the shelf (figure 3).
  • Page 12: Furniture Mounting

    For furniture mounting, do not attach the rubber feet. Furniture mount the switcher using the optional MBU 125 under desk mounting kit (part #70-077-01) as follows: Remove feet from the bottom of the MTP SW6 if installed. Attach the furniture mounting brackets to the switcher with the four machine screws supplied with the mounting kit (igure 5).
