  • Page 6: About The Mtp Transmitters And Receivers

    Introduction About the MTP Transmitters and Receivers The Extron MTP transmitters and receivers provide a system for long-distance distribution of NTSC, PAL, or SECAM video and audio over Extron’s Enhanced Skew-Free over Category (CAT) 5 shielded twisted pair (STP), unshielded twisted pair (UTP), or foil shielded twisted pair (FTP) cable.
  • Page 7: Chapter 2 • Installation

    Introduction, cont’d • The video portion of any S-video transmitter’s output is compatible with any S-video receiver in the MTP family described in this manual if the transmitter and receiver jumper configuration are compatible. See “Signal Jumpers for Generational Compatibility”, in chapter 2, “Installation”. •...
  • Page 8: Signal Jumpers For Generational Compatibility

    Installation CAUTION Installation and service must be performed by authorized personnel only. Signal Jumpers for Generational Compatibility Over time, the MTPs have been redesigned, affecting the signal content of the TP cable wire pairs, changing the audio from stereo to mono, and eliminating the remote power capability. The new-generation units are not compatible with the old generation unless an internal jumper in the new unit is shifted.
  • Page 9 Installation, cont’d Locate the jumper blocks (figure 2-3) on the video board. Shift the jumper to the alternate location. Mono (default jumper position) Compatible with new model transmitter/receivers. Cannot remotely power transmitter/receiver Transmitter Front Panel Transmitter Rear Panel Stereo Compatible with old model transmitter/receivers. Can remotely power transmitter/receiver.

    Installation, cont’d When making connections for the MTP from existing audio cables, see figure 2-14 to identify the tip, ring, and sleeve wires in various connectors. A mono audio connector consists of the tip and sleeve. A stereo audio connector consists of the tip, ring and sleeve. The ring, tip, and sleeve wires are also shown on the captive screw audio connector diagrams, figure 2-13 and figure 2-21.
  • Page 15: Tp Cable Termination

    Installation, cont’d TP cable termination Figure 2-17 details the recommended termination of TP cables with RJ-45 connectors in accordance with the TIA/EIA T 568A or TIA/EIA T 568B wiring standards. You can use either standard, but ensure that you use the same standard on both cable ends.
  • Page 16: Receiver Output Connections

    Installation, cont’d If the transmitter and receiver are either older generation units or jumper configured to the stereo audio position (compatible with the older units), only a single device needs to be powered in a two-unit system. See “Signal Jumpers for Generational Compatibility” on page 2-2. The device connected to the power supply, in turn, provides power to its counterpart.
