    Guide Overview This guide contains installation, configuration, and operating information for the Extron XTP CrossPoint1600 Matrix Switcher (see figure 1) and XTP CrossPoint 3200 Matrix Switcher. These customizable matrix switchers support up to 16 (XTP CrossPoint1600) or 32 (XTP CrossPoint 3200) inputs and outputs.
  • Page 10: Product Description

    Product Description The XTP CrossPoint Series matrix switchers are configurable, modular switchers that distribute a variety of video, audio, and data types, depending on its configuration. A matrix switcher routes any input signal to any combination of outputs. It can route multiple signals at once.
  • Page 11: Endpoint Configuration

    • XTP CrossPoint 3200 — 10U high The base XTP CrossPoint1600 ships with two internal power supplies on a single AC connection that provide 12 V and 48 V. It can be ordered with two additional optional redundant (12 V and 48 V) power supplies. The customer cannot install the redundant power supplies.
  • Page 12: Input And Output Board And Signal Types

    Input and Output Board and Signal Types The XTP CrossPoint Series matrix switchers are assembled from user-installed and hot-swappable input and output boards. This section details the signal types processed by each board and the function of boards. The boards have a primary signal type that is identified by the name of the board and used as the subsections of the Primary signal type, by board section starting on the next...
  • Page 13 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.
  • Page 14 HDMI input boards and DVI Pro input boards both also have four analog balanced stereo inputs on captive screw connectors (see Analog audio inputs on the next page). HDMI output boards and DVI Pro output boards both also have four analog balanced stereo Analog audio outputs outputs on captive screw connectors (see on the next page).
  • Page 15: Features

    Secondary signal type Serial port inserts The XTP and fiber input and output boards also have four local RS-232 and IR insert inputs on captive screw connectors. The insert inputs support up to a 115k baud rate. Each RS-232 and IR insert and local output is for the associated input or output only and cannot be tied to other outputs or inputs.
  • Page 16 Remote power to XTP transmitters and receivers — To simplify installation in • space-challenged locations, an XTP CrossPoint Series matrix switcher can provide power to remote XTP transmitters and receivers over the same STP cable that is used for sending AV signals. This avoids the need for external power supplies at remote endpoints.

    Arrangement of Command and Response Tables Different board types and endpoint types accept different types of commands. There is some repetition in the command and response tables, depending on the input and output for which the commands are appropriate. Additionally, basic whole-matrix-switcher commands, more advanced whole-matrix-switcher commands, and IP- and remote port setup commands are presented in separate command and response tables.
