TP connectors
All RJ-45 ports, whether DTP ports, the Expansion port, and the LAN
(Ethernet) ports on the switcher or IPCP control processor use twisted pair
cables (see figure 7).

A cable that is wired the same at both ends is
called a "straight-through" cable, because

10 DTP CrossPoint 84 • Installation
DTP input and output ports — Shielded twisted pair (STP) for
connection to Extron DTP transmitters and receivers, XTP matrix
switchers, or HDBaseT-enabled devices.
Expansion port — STP for connection between the matrix
switcher and a DMP 128. A shielded 1-foot cable is included with
the DMP 128.
LAN ports — Unshielded twisted pair (UTP) or STP for
connection of the LAN port to an Ethernet LAN.
LAN ports — UTP or STP for direct connection between the
DTP CrossPoint 84 matrix switcher and a connected computer.
