Primary signal type, by board
XTP input and output boards
The XTP boards are essentially receivers (input boards) and transmitters (output boards).
The input board receives up to four XTP inputs, on either Extron XTP DTP 24 SF/UTP cable
or shielded Category 5e, 6, or 7 (CAT x) shielded twisted pair (STP) cable, terminated with
RJ-45 connectors, from Extron XTP transmitters.
The output board transmits XTP signals to as many as four XTP receivers.
The XTP signals can include digital video signals (or digitized analog video if the tied
input is from a universal VGA input board), audio, RS-232, IR, Ethernet, and remote
power capability. A second RJ-45 connector is present that allows you to insert Ethernet
communications onto the XTP cable to passively extend them to a LAN (Ethernet) port on
the connected endpoint. The maximum transmission distance is 330 feet (100 m).
Each XTP board features remote power (48 VDC @ 13 watts per output) on the XTP inputs
and outputs for XTP transmitters and receivers.
Both XTP boards also support RS-232 inputs and dedicated universal asynchronous
receiver/transmitters (UARTs) (see
page 7).
Fiber input and output boards
The fiber input boards have four fiber optic input connectors. The fiber output boards have
four fiber optic output connectors. The boards are compatible with any Extron fiber "Plus"
product. The fiber signals can include digital video signals, audio, RS-232, and IR.
An RJ-45 connector is present that allows you to insert Ethernet communications onto the
fiber cable to passively extend them to a LAN (Ethernet) port on the connected endpoint.
Both fiber boards also support RS-232 inputs and dedicated UARTs (see
inserts and Dedicated UARTs).
The boards are further categorized by the type of fiber optic cable, multimode or
singlemode, which defines the effective range of transmission:
XTP CP 4i Fiber 4K MM — Multimode, long distance, up to 700 m (2297 feet) (depending
on the fiber cable)
XTP CP 4i Fiber 4K SM — Singlemode, very long distance, up to 10 km (6.2 miles)
NOTE: The multimode and singlemode boards are physically and functionally identical,
with the exception of the effective range of transmission. In this guide, any reference
applies to either transmission mode unless otherwise specified.
HDMI 4K, HDMI, and DVI Pro input and output boards
The HDMI input boards have four HDMI input connectors. The HDMI output boards have
four HDMI output connectors. The boards also support digital DVI-D signals with adapters.
The DVI Pro input board has four DVI-I input connectors. The DVI Pro output board has
four DVI-I output connectors. Although equipped with DVI-I connectors, the DVI Pro boards
support digital DVI-D signals (and HDMI connectors with adapters) only.
The boards meet the DVI 1.0 and HDMI 1.3 specifications, support a maximum
resolution of 1920 x 1200 @ 60 Hz and 1080p @ 60 Hz (deep color), and are HDCP-compliant.
The output boards perform down-conversion automatic color bit depth to match the signal
to display capabilities.
All digital video input boards support 256 bytes of EDID and can save, import, and export
EDID data.
